Default What color to paint the mustang?

I am debating on a new paint job for the stang. White has worked out so far. I like burnt orange. But I have debated on Blue as well. Open to suggestions. Interior is black, rims are black, taillight covers are black, front seats are gray and black Sparco Torino's. What do you think I should paint it?

I live in a dusty city, my previous car was black, love the color, but not the maintenance. There are a few colors I will not paint it other than the obvious colors like Brown, Purple, or Pink . Those are Black, Green, or Yellow. Chameleon is cool, but way too expensive.

i just apinted mine a lexus is 300 blue pearl metallic. it looksr eally good and the metal flake makes it really nice. in the sun the paint is the nicest color but when its dark and cloudy it has a slight purple shade. i live in FL though so most the time im happy with it. i really like the look of white cars alot of the time though but when they are more of a stock look for some reason im not crazy about white.

Ooh, my other car is an IS 300. My wife drives that one mainly. Its silver though. That blue is nice. Anyone else have an idea? I am trying to figure out what would go well with the parts I already have added. I am pretty much on White and Burnt Orange right now...possibility of Blue.

I would say the electric blue or black! Black is definitelya high maintenance color to keep clean...I've learned that through many years washing/polishing/waxing. ;-)

I've owned a black 99 mustang and my current 05. When it is all washed/polished/waxed, the black looks awesome!!! :-)

The burnt orange would like good; however only with black racing stripes....JMO

Good luck w/ your choice!
