I've been away since I sold my '99 GT 'vert - had a 2005 Crossfire in the driveway for the last 10+ years. But I'm happy to announce a new pony in the stable- a one day-old 2016 GT!!! Looking forward to learning what I can about this beast!!!

I am so glad you chose what is obviously the best color for a mustang.

Is that the orange? That's the color my son picked when I took him to the dealer. I love orange, but want something less attractive to cops. I can do almost anything in my silver Acura and not get pulled over.

Green station wagons are a good bet. Small RVs too. Busses!

U Mustang people are relentless! U gotta have thick skin in this crowd! Yesterday I got berated by an old lady for even considering the V6! By an old lady! Maybe I should just get a Civic Si! Don't laugh! It's on my short list, at least the Civic boys will respect me!

Congrats! I'm also back, been riding sport bikes for a few years and now it's back to four wheels. My new '16 Competition Orange GT Premium with performance package, when it arrives in mid Oct, will look EXACTLY like yours! You have good taste!!

I've been driving Mustangs since 2004. I was 18 and got a hold of a 05 V6. Haven't been pulled over once!

Yeah, I can deal with the Mustang personalities. I am not at all a typical "Mustang" guy but that does not mean I can't appreciate them. Props to you GT owners. Big money but it's totally worth it for the performance level. I am still torn on color. They are all beautiful but I want a color that shows blemishes less over time, so silver and white. Good thing those are my 2 favorites. My F-150 was the same white, loved it. But these candy and gumball colors really look awesome. Orange IS my personality. Maybe I should DO orange.

Any one of those will house the vinyl decals that you have your heart set on. Now all you gotta do is figure out what color they'll look best on.


Oh... and I didn't mean they wouldn't respect your because it's a V6. They won't respect you because it's a Mustang. hehehe

There is nothing wrong with a v6, or the ecoboost for that matter. They're all performers.
White is a great color on a Mustang. That Competition Orange does look good though.

Orange is hands down my favorite color but Ford hurt me with CO. Would have preferred something like Brazen Orange on the GTO but you cant deny the performance. Been so happy with mine thus far. Impresses me every day.

The Mrs. hates the color. Says she won't ride in an orange car. I said that was "Plan A". She asked, "At least tell me it's an automatic"(shudder).... I said Heck no!" That was "Plan B"...
