Black all day...

DIB all the way. Black is, well, black. And it's overdone. DIB is rich and colorful. Not sure what the deal was with the one you saw. But I saw a DIB 2014 along side a red 2015 at the auto show and I couldn't believe how much more attractive the blue was. Don't go by the configurator on Ford.com either. The color they show there is crap compared to the real thing.

Orange/Racing Red/Yellow would be a cop magnets.

Blue/Black/White is passive, but attractive.

Guard/Silver/Ruby Red doesn't stand out at all.

I'm learning towards the DIB. Yeah i'm pissed I didn't see a DIB in a 2015 in person yet! I plan on getting the Black Raven leather seats/interior. I'm really debating on going back to dealership and pre-ordering one at lunch!

I already sold my Honda!

BLACK. You're buying a car, it will get dirty and get scratched up no matter what color car it is. You're not buying a museum piece. Buy whatever color car you want and drive the shit out of it. Who cares how dirty it is, and how many scratches you have? you won't see none of it from inside where you'll have a big ass smile while driving a new Mustang. Choosing a color of the car only based on the maintenance is silly, IMHO. I do understand that not everybody is the same and have their own concerns. I like black cars because they're elegant and classy without being loud. I've had multiples of black cars and the maintenance on it doesn't bother me anymore. Hey! If it's good enough for Batman. It's good enough for me!

Any color is better than black.

DIP looks different in all the pictures! Light really changes the tint of it.

Having owned black cars in the past, I personally would never own another black car. Black shows every defect - every scratch, swirly and speck of dirt. DIB isn't much better as it is dark enough to show everything as well.

I would go with Magnetic or White just to hide the inevitable imperfections that accumulate over time. My '14 is Sterling Gray metallic and it hides dirt (invaluable in a DD that only gets washed on the weekends) very well, and swirlies (no matter how hard you try to avoid them, they are inevitable) are pretty much impossible to see.

GL!

Black is the WORST to keep looking good. I have a black car now...never again. Ever.

Both are going to be a PITA to Keep Clean. I've Owned both a Black and a Dark Blue car and will Never Ever own another Dark Color Car.

A man after my own heart. I had a black 94 Cobra and hated it. Just hated it. I will never own black again, ever. The car always looked dirty and dingy, even right after it was washed.

I has a Twilight Blue (Kinda like Kona Blue) 04 Infiniti, and it was about as bad. It looked dark gray in flat light. It looks black at night. But in the sunlight, when it was clean . . . man, that was a beautiful car!

I like DIB, though it's a little purple. I'd order it three times before I'd order black. It's on my short list, along with Ruby Red, Ingot Silver and Oxford White. Still wrestling with it!

Not sure what everyone's gripe with black is. You are suppose to keep your car clean at all times no matter what color. I had an 04 Impala LT that was black so going to my 2010 GT was cake since it was half the size. Now I have a tuxedo black Lariat Super crew... now that is a PIA!
