Im really nuts about having the right color of my Stang. I currently own an 09 GT500KR in Vista and love it. Im not crazy about the Kona but still I would lean towards it. Is there any rumours of new colors for the 2013? I have heard about these new Ford colors.

Funny ... my wife's '05 V6 was sonic blue (she sold it in 2007 for a new Explorer). I recently purchased an '07 GT in vista blue, and she claims it's the same shade as her (long gone) sonic blue.

What does "the right color mean"? Get the one you like the best.

The right color means a color that I like. And I dont really like any of these colors. I like Vista since I had 4 of them and I liked the windveil blue. I also liked tungsten. Also I had a couple Royal Blue 93's that were real nice. And the dark blue pearl on the f150's. Even the sterling gray. But these colors are just blah and plain to me. But I guess Ill pick one.

And Sonic is not the same shade as Vista. For the other person that said his wife thought it was the same.

red candy metallic is a crazy looking color when you see it in person, it just isn't a sporty color to me though

Would love to see a pearl or a platinum silver...

Is sonic blue the color of the stripes on a Ford GT Supercar? If so, that'd be really nice!

Hey ATISTANG,

Kona Blue is still available, and it is being reviewed on a week-to-week basis. They haven't announced any replacement colors yet, but I'll keep you posted!

That would be different... I have to get a picture of the bright atlantic blue next to the grabber blue, they are much closer than I expected.

Well my opionion is byest but best color to me (except for trying to keep it clean) is the new Lava Red they came out with this year. I love it, wake up in the morning it looks as if I'm jumping into a straight black mustang, you can't see none of the color coming through when it's clouded over just appears black. By time I leave work and the sun is beading down all you see is a mustang the images the color of a black cherry in the back of the parking lot.
