ALL. F**KING. DAY.

NO car, let alone a Mustang, was on my radar when they were announced. Quite liked them when I first saw them but not overly fussed. Then I saw this a couple of days before the price was announced:

I was at the dealer the same weekend.

The HRE car is absolutely spot on, best blend of both in your face and elegance.

I am trading my car in the moment the 10-speed is an option and I shall probably opt for Grabber Blue and aim to replicate the HRE car pretty much exactly as to stripes and black accents, but I'd go with the multi-spoke HRE wheel in black chrome I think.

My GB Gt is sat in Baltimore at the moment and I hope will ship any day. It'll be at Hendy's in Eastleigh soon enough I hope!!

I agree with the in your face nature of the colour so I plan on getting stripes fitted soon after collection. I think the standard car is going to be very loud and will need breaking up to tone it down. I'm very nervous about that fact as I've not seen one in the flesh so hope when it arrives it'll work!!

Stripes should do the trick....

But I also ride a bright orange KTM SuperDuke 1290 so loud colours don't bother me so much!

Maybe providence, my local is Hendy's in Eastleigh. Let me know when she arrives there. Yours may have been the one that Joe At Hendy's was on about.

No problem, I suspect you'll see some posts on here as I'll inspect it before collection and will grab some pics.

Getting a bit frustrated with the wait to be honest. Built a month ago and still stateside.....

Its interesting that your GB GT is sat in Baltimore now as i ordered mine as soon as the colour was available and i have been told that its not likely to be built until September or October :doh: that HRE mustang does look awesome though.

I originally ordered on Feb 9th but amended it on March 9th when fords system updated.

My build was completed June 15th, 11 days after the factory switched the my17.

Etis shows a full build schedule and Stacey confirms I should get a shipping date next Monday...

Personally I love GB, I tried to change my order when they changed production colours. Mine was locked so went with Mag. If I order again I think I would go GB for the change and it's a historic Mustang colour. I would go black roof, splitters, spoiler etc etc perhaps with a decal down the side in black to break it up. Hopefully see one in the flesh when there out at a meet perhaps.

Not for me. Looks good on the GT350 but any colour looks good on the 350

Hi all, does anyone know of a dealer that is getting a Grabber blue mustang in?

I have about 6 weeks to make a final decision on colour and I am torn.

Sometimes it looks really nice and other times it looks like a baby blue, for want of a better description.

I also like Lightning blue and Magnetic with black stripes (not the Ford ones).

From the pictures it looks similar to the Nitrous Blue that the new Focus RS's come in, you could always see one of those in person if you can't see a GB stang.
