I can't, for the life of me, figure out why Ford discontinued the CO color?? I think it's one of the best looking colors for these cars. I wonder why?

+1 on that. My wife, family, and co-workers thought I lost my mind when I told them my new mustang was orange. Jaws dropped when they saw it! Zero regrets here.

So far it just has the GT350 Rear Valance w/Sport Exhaust. Still debating wheels, should have springs soon, I have to install my GT350R steering wheel this weekend. Thinking of the GT350 shift knob to finish off the look in the cabin and after reading what felt like a book on here about Tri Ax shifter I think that will be what I use to row the gears. Have some cosmetic things planned for the outside as well.

Visiting with my daughter's family in East Liverpool for the weekend, we went to Boardman for shopping and dinner at Primanti Bros and afterwards we went to Boardman Park. This beauty with dealer plates was there too.

Heard that the issue was that the CO looked too similar to the Red in certain light environments and that is the reason, although can't substantiate that as a Ford statement, just hearsay.

i doubt that. although it gets red in the shade it's still orange.

people are afraid to buy outlandish colors...that's probably why. they rather stick with their common boring black, greys, whites, and silvers. Plus people were begging for Grabber Blue to come back.

I have never confused RR and CO... I don't even know how that's possible. In pictures yeah sometimes it can be difficult due to photo editing and lighting software, in person there is no way someone can mistake RR and CO.

CO has always been a limited time offering for color and like stated by Khyber everyone wants dull silver, gray, black.
