ROYAL CRIMSON S550 MUSTANG THREAD

Love that color :love: But still have a strong dislike for the front of the car...:(

Thanks for posting this Topnotch.
Royal Crimson looks awesome, as does the tan interior.
IMHO...lipstick on a pig.
And those F150 wheels again!

I wonder if Dark Saddle is still only on the base leather, or if there is now something along those lines as part of the upgraded Premier Trim?

Looks like leather from a real bull instead of the pleather we have.

Is this at the Washington DC auto show? Are there other 2018s there too? I think you also posted a yellow or orange in the other thread but I don't know where that car is either.

As far as I can tell, this is the only 2018 on display at the DC auto show. The only other mustang they have is a 2017 in the ruby red color.

Yah that sucks...we get a convertible & we cant even look at it up close since they dont want anyone in these models yet.

Looks very much like Candy Apple Red, very pretty!

I think these are the new 20" option wheels and as such the successors of the current 20" Foundry wheels. Another big step backwards in my book.

The turn signals are begging to be tinted. Jesus, the chrome.

But that color looks awesome, even better than Ruby Red. Now I just have to see how it looks in Kona blue and I can make a decision.

Yea it sucks that they rope off the mustang at our show when at others they allow people to walk right up to it. I am sure that has something to do with the fact that we get the vert since there main goal is for people not to get into the car.

It doesn't have purple in it. That's the Ford backdrop reflecting on it. Blue + Crimson = purple tint.

It will mix any color that is reflected on it. If that was a yellow background you'd have orange tint.

Im not talking about the back haunch of it. Im talking about the spots where it gets really dark. Its looks like a dark black cherry/blood color which leans a bit towards the dark purples.

Everytime, my eyes get pulled to the headlights. So distracting. I don't think that color does the lines of the car much good either but that's probably just the lighting. These seats look super nice though.

I think the headlights would look significantly better if the amber section for the turn signals wasn't so prominent. Shrinking or smoking them would make a big improvement.
