Default What color is your Stang and why?

I once saw a pretty blue Mustang in Temple, Texas. Once I found out what color it was, I searched for months to find a Bright Atlantic Blue GT, because it was rare (one of about 4000 made in 2000), and blue is my favorite color. I looked on eBay, and on every Mustang site Google could find; I had pretty much given up, and was trying to find a purple, green or blue LS1 (I'm a sucker for rare colors), when I stumbled across the car less than a mile from my apartment, in a park'n'sell off the highway. So that's my story.

What color did you pick, and why?

No idea what the name for it is, but it looks a LOT like the Blue found on the Ford Ranger Splash... I always end up with cars that have rare colors... Like Mystic Teal Metallic on my Camaro is not exactly a real common one, and neither is the blue on my '86 Mustang.

White, just happen to be the right price. I was actually looking for yellow. But I am glad I got white.

Rio Red here, no real reason besides thats what they were selling and what was available at the time. i love the way it looks and how much attention it gets but i also hate it because the cops definately notice it a lot more too(i doubt the extremely loud exhaust has anything to do with it).

i was unsure about the color before, mostly because it came with the tan interior, but the interior is in the process of being changed to all black with some sparco seats so ill like the way it flows a lot better. and plus now i can get some billett interior goodies and paint a few things red to match, but nothing overkill.

it's black and it's that way because Ford painted it black. I bought it from a relative last week when he got a c6. I wouldn't choose black if I bought a new one though.

Performance White. It looks great when clean!

Although, I ordered a Windveil Blue '05, but got impatient.
