Mustang of the Moment

MOTM: Ericc’s Dutch Triple Yellow

This Mustang of the Moment goes to M6G member Ericc B and his 2016 Mustang EcoBoost in you guessed it, Triple Yellow.

Ericc has been a long-time resident of Mustang6G and actively followed along from when the first accurate-to-life renderings by our friend chazcron hit the wire to the official global reveal of the S550 in December 2013.

A self-proclaimed fanatical yellow car driver since 1991, his dedication towards the S550 Mustang is nearly without equal — an obsession that led him to fly to the United States from his native Netherlands to wait in line for hours to get his first glimpse of the Triple Yellow 2015 Mustang convertible debut on top of New York’s Empire State Building.

After a torturous journey filled with emissions tax sticker shock, indecision, lack of transparency and another month of waiting after his 2016 Mustang EcoBoost had already arrived at his dealership, Ericc B’s epic wait finally culminated at the turn of the new year with his taking delivery of the first Triple Yellow S550 Mustang in The Netherlands!

One of the silver linings of the long wait was he had lots of time to plan modifications and little time has been wasted.

Eric’s first order of business was to convert the Euro-spec S550 items to conform to the U.S. version which included not only adding the omitted signature DRLs back into the headlights but also adding support for the tri-bar “gills” to function as parking light and sequential blinkers.

Eric has not stopped there and has since added KW V3 coilovers, Schropp strut tower brace and 20″ Niche M146 Essen wheels in just a few short weeks.
