Does this Guard V6 have a body-color diffuser like the Comp Orange V6 we saw? I can't tell from looking at the pictures.

Really hoping Ford ditches the body-color diffusers. Black splitter and skirts with body-color rear just looks dumb IMHO.

Yes it does. It just doesn't stand out as much because of the Dark Color. I believe All Base Model V-6's will have the fully painted Rear Bumper and Diffuser. I agree the Black Splitter and Side Skirts with the Fully Painted Rear looks Terrible. I Love the Combination Black and Painted Bumper and Diffuser the Best.

I think it would make a Great Looking Bullitt...

Loose the Pony in the Grill, Add the Louvered Quarter Windows from the Anniversary Package with the GT's Heat Extractor Hood, and Done Deal!

Even these Wheels are Very Bullitt/Torque Thrust like...

Of course it would have to be Dark Highland Green... Guard is not Dark Enough or Green Enough.

The wheels do look like modern day Bullitt wheels, I'll give you that. Bullitt or not I think it would look real slick if it lost the pony badges and got some blacked out tails.

that is so sexy
clear lines and all those beautiful Details
the Pony on the front Fender
those aston like window Frames around the dlo (day light opening)
those rear view mirrors and the wheels :headbang::headbang::headbang::headbang:


a good Thing, that the real car itself is pretty Close, it will take only a Little make up, to get that look

So those of you that have actually seen this color, how do you think this will hold up as far as cleanliness goes? Do you think it will be hard to keep clean. Looks kind of dark so I would think it would be almost as hard to clean as black. Opinions please?

guard is so dark, it will be PIA to Keep clean
5 miles on wet roads and you will have to wash it, as soon as the car is dry
have the car Standing in your driveway for 3 day without driving it during a dryspell, and you will see easily such an amount of dust, that you wanna wash the car again

so if you want a car looking clean without washing it constantly, get it in Ingot silver, windveil blue (not available right now) or something like BMW Orion silver ( see far down below)

believe me, i know what i am talking about

i had a silver lexus and a 300M in deep cranberry in the late 1990s, the lexus was no prob, the 300M asked for washing daily




today i drive a midnight blue 300 c Hemi and and Orion silver BMW Z4 35i

same Story, you can drive the BMW for the whole week without a prob, the Hemi is dusty after 3 days without even having driven a single Yard
