Seems like blue is dieing off a bit (out here at least), so I would try a trick blue with some grafix!

I want to be different which has always been hard on a mustang. Ive even thought of white on white rtrs or a army green with some kind of matte finish stripe and wheels idk. Hard to do something clean and differnt ford really stepped up their color options on the 5.0s. Sterling grey,kona blue and deep impact blue look great. The new ghig and grabber blue look good as well as race red. Hard to improve on some of these colors without getting tacky

The military scheme is what my girlfriend wants me to do also. Maybe with some airbrushed effects in it as well(like rivets and holes) ive been itching to play with my newest iwata airbrush!

Rio red, Sonic blue, Mystic, Dark shadow gray. All I can come up with is ford colors, probably because that's all I know lol. That light blue color on the new zr1 corvette is cool.. Dodge has a real cool metallic gray as well. Hope this helps you out. I still think your a little nuts for painting a brand new car with so many bad ass color choices from the factory lol.

U could air brush bullet holes, a little pin up on the hood? Like WWII fighters.....
I like that theme.
Even if u don't go green, u do a machine appearance with like a silver, rivet holes on all the panels.

You need to find your "different" in either a theme or some custom paint (flames, stripes, airbrushing). Hard to be a OG with a single color.

Couple guys on Forza did army paint schemes. All exotic cars tho.
Matte black with white accents. White wheels. Or the same with any color really....
