White looks more matte. Blue looks lighter and almost pearl like.

Looks good!

Agreed. Except for that terribly misaligned rear windscreen/bake light.

Grabber Blue is awful. Saw it also in person few times when I was in the US on some older Mustangs. That color literally makes the car look two levels cheaper, like a toy car or something. It's a disgrace. On the other hand, felt in love with Lightning Blue because of GT350 pictures with stripes.

It's so cool to see the new colors on the S550. I have yet to see a hue that doesn't look great on this car.

Lightning Blue is just nice. It somehow comes off making a softer impression than DIB. That may be better or it may be less desirable to some folks.

Grabber Blue is just delicious.

I hate that I missed my chance at Competition Orange. :(

There's still plenty of 16s on lots to get a Comp Orange.

You crazy!

Nice to see all three '17 colors in one picture. Lightning blue is nice, Grabber blue is interesting (although not my style) and pearl white looks elegant. Still happy with my race red color choice though.

Need to see Lightning Blue in person, looks like it could be a great color.

White platinum looks amazing, one of my favorite colors. My wife's Edge is White Platinum, looks great.

Grabber blue has always just been meh for me.

Intriguing. And, having read through all this, I simply have to say....

Photos are one thing. They often don't show the subtleties. Seeing them in person is really the only way. In person made me throw away the conclusions I'd made about what colors I liked/disliked that were originally determined just through photos.

I imagine this is even more so when comparing similar colors, such as Lightning Blue vs Deep Impact Blue, etc.

Man, in that first picture, you can really see how much lighter the front fascia appears to be compared to the hood and front fender.

Looks pretty seamless to me....the fascia is in the light of the sky whereas the area behind the fender isn't reflecting any light.

Grabber Blue is going to be nuts on a Roush RS3 with black and red graphics.

Yep there is definitely a pearl effect to the platinum and in some light actually looks like it could have a pink hue.
