I just went to the UK Ford site for the new Mustang at:

There is a button that lets you pick a color. I picked Lightning Blue and was treated to this beautiful blue, and not that ugly teal color that was showing up earlier in the thread. It's looking more and more like that wasn't accurate at all.

I think that's a safe assumption. Apart from black all the fotoshopped colors in the configurator are quite to even way off, but this Lightning Blue takes the biscuit.

From the regular pictures we have seen so far LB is a tad lighter than DIB and less purple-ish. I doesn't even remotely look like the teal that's in the configurator.

Personally I'm not surprised by Ford's choice for this new blue as it is in line with all the other very poor color choices mrs Lampinen has made for the S550 generation:

Oxford White < Performance White
Deep Impact Blue < Kona Blue
Triple Yellow < Screaming Yellow
Competition Orange < Grabber Orange
Magnetic < Gun Metal Grey
Guard < Gotta Have It Green
Black < Any Metallic Black

The only colors that I think are best choice for their kind are Race Red, Ruby Red and Ingot Silver. As an alternative blue I do like Grabber Blue a lot and I think the Pearl White is a good addition too.
That's some pretty good points.

Although I like Competition Orange over Grabber orange.

That's DIB, just choose the new white or Grabber, it will show CO and Guard.

Check out the colors at our unofficial selfmade EU Mustang builder here

I like the purple that pops up in DIB now and then, but this new one looks nice enough. I think a metallic/pearl white will look way better than oxford. The S550 looks better in metallics as they show off the lines a little bit.

Not an expert but I don't believe Redline interior was available with Race Red before. Looks like it will be.

I'm guessing that's the version only on the Recaro seats right?

damn that Lightning Blue is beautiful.

Trading in my '16 Guard for a '17 LB/CS would be a bad idea, right?
