As a 12 year owner of a V6 Mustang, congratulations! Should have my own upgrade arriving in a couple of months.

18 Oxford White GT
Looks great, Hertz! ..and congrats!! I'm curious -- what do you think of the Oxford White in person compared to some of the darker colors like Kona Blue or Magnetic? I love Oxford White and ordered my 18 in the same color, but sometimes find myself second guessing my original decision. Primarily because I haven't seen a 2018 in Oxford White in person just yet. I'd appreciate your thoughts if you have a chance!

Haha so heres the thing about the white to me. I never really cared for them......until I saw white s550s around town with black accents. I would awe at those and even white dodge chargers with the black accents. That stormtroooper look was just sexy to me. Imo those 2 cars look frkin great in white.
The white just looks classy to me, the s550s look very sporty so I think it can make it look like a more expensive car than it really is...weird but thats what I think haha.
Dont get me wrong...I love the darker colors like kona, black, metallic, guard..but that white gives it a pop without being flashy like yellow or orange, plus it gives you a great view of the actual shape of the car. I cant stop staring at it. I guarantee youre gonna love the white. I just hope you got some black rims.

And yes the middle console is still that cheap plastic material...not sure if the premiums have better material, I dont think they do though.

White contours the body lines of the S550 design very well. I personally think it's the best color for showing the design of the car because the shadows cast very well. I also prefer a non stage 3 paint for touching up. I like special color cars for show but that's about it. White also does not draw a lot of attention.

I'm starting to like that spoiler. I wonder how it would look wrapped gloss black (along with the roof) but leaving the supports white.

YES! Exactly, that is the perfect explanation. I also find that the white really pops at night, the contrast between the night and the white car is just beautiful and the aggressive looks and stance of this car just makes it even more menacing. I know you say that white doesn’t attract a lot of attention, but ive been getting looks left and right with this car. Funny because I hated the look of the 18 when I first saw it but now I can’t stop looking at it. UGH im at work right now and id much rather be out driving. Anyways, here are a couple of pictures we took of the car at night right before I drove her out the lot. I love how she looks at night.

Looks great! Do you have any pictures of the rear valence/spoiler as well?

I did not need to see that car in white.

I have to keep reminding myself I don't like the way it looks.

White/Black FTW ;). Overplayed? Sure, but for a reason.
