This is the first time I'm ordering a car and It's driving me crazy. I plan on getting the performance package which means It will have the black multi spoke rims.

I cannot decide between Deep Impact Blue or Black. I saw a DIP 2014 mustang at the dealer and it wasn't attractive. Grant it is cloudy and gross out right now. I saw that the DIB is metallic on the pre-order form. Was the previous years DIB metallic?

I vote DIB. Black is boring, and you will have a painful time keeping it clean. Blue will be more versatile, and yes look different in different lighting conditions. Some don't like this but to me this is cool. You won't get bored of the color over the long haul.

Black seems kind of flat at least in the 2014 mustang down at the dealership. I will look at the DIB mustang when it's sunny out.

Dib. Black isnt my fave on the 2015. A flatter black would look good imo

My last 2 cars have been black. I will never buy a black car again no matter how good of a deal. Its terrible to keep clean. Shows every little scratch.

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.

I'm usually a black guy, but I feel it is hiding a lot of the nice lines and the black trim accent contrast on this car. Go blue.

Agreed with those that say Black hides the lines of the cars. Go for DIB.

After having a black Mustang, IMO you should stay away from that color. Everyone will tell you how hard it is to keep clean, but it's more than just that. The paint shows even the tiniest of blemishes. Swirl marks, micro scratches, etc.

When it's clean and polished it looks spectacular at dusk, dawn and night time. But black cars tend to look blah in direct sunlight.

I've always been a black car guy, until the 2015 mustang. The one I ordered is Ingot Silver, but from the choices you listed I would choose DIB.

The reason I decided to not go with black or magnetic was because I didn't like the way those colors accented the body lines of the car - didn't exactly bring them out. Ingot Silver does just that, plus I love the way the rear looks with the Silver and Black tail light section.

DIB.

Between these two.... DIB

But what is your desired interior color that matters just as much to complete the package
