Yesterday on the way home from work I spotted a 2005 mustang on I-96 going east towards 696. I was headed west towards the local "farming college" here in michigan for the weekend. It was covered in the usual black and white camoflage that we have all seen in the "spy pics".

Then when I turned around to look at it, I could see the back bumper between the tail lights and the spoiler. It was painted sonic blue! It looked sweet, and if they end up making the car in sonic blue, it's gonna be awesome.

After thinking about it, I think they stopped making sonic blue in 04 to save it for the 05's to maybe boost the sales of the new 05's. I kind of wanted sonic blue to stop with the 03's, to make mine more rare, but it looked good on the 05.

Many components (including the paint) on development cars are current production for cost and other reasons. Don't take any colors you see on development cars for granted - they may have no relation to the actual production car.

Yep, for sure! I see Sonic Blue right there. Available with the Pearl Gold or White stripes.

:rockon:

Good find.

They have mineral grey and satin silver listed as a new for '05 color instead of a carry over color like sonic blue is.

Other new colors are:
performance white clearcoat
legend lime clearcoat metallic
windveil blue clearcoat metallic

That's because right now there is no mineral grey or satin silver. The '04's are not available in either of those.

No sonic blue for '04 either, right?

I agree on the e-brake!

I hope they've got the ergonomics right for this model. Can't even get a telescoping steering column on a car that costs this much?
