Al, welcome to the few, the proud, the guard! If you go back through this thread you will get a pretty good idea what this color is like. In some pictures it looks like a bright green, this is NOT what it looks like. Great car choice by the way; EB, PP, Guard...nice:thumbsup:
Thanks:usa::thumbsup:

I know it hasn't left the assembly line yet but that Bumper is misaligned.

wow thats way obvious.....hope these issues get worked out !!
That's why there are quality holds. This is the kind of stuff that gets handled in the early builds. There might be adjustments in procedures, there might be adjustments in the tools assisting the people, etc., etc.

I think you guys know the drill by now :)

PS - Thanks for the Guard photo, Topnotch. It went into my collection!

It's purplish in the noon day sun, don't doubt me. Back on topic...
I want to see more Guard PP pics, but I guess I can wait...

Who am I kidding, Topnotch, do you take bribes? :D

Man, definitely a controversial color. Why couldn't Ford have just given us the color we all want? Just a regular dark green. Obviously I would have loved Dark Highland Green but I even would have settled for Ivy Green. Guard is okay, probably would be my choice still but it's just maddening. I don't think Ford would offend anyone by offering a regular dark green.

I found this strange while looking at my local dealer stock to see if guard was available on the lot.

They don't have guard as a color, but one of the options on the dealer inventory program they use shows dark grey. I assumed this would show magnetic grey. I clicked it and the cars were all Guard metallic. Magnetic is just listed under "Gray".
Apparently even ford doesn't know what color guard is.

But we don't all want it. :) I think guard looks great, as a PP especially, and I think for Mustangs, Ford should reserve PY/PX for BULLITT special editions.

But I totally see where you are coming from and DHG/HG is a gorgeous color, but I think Guard is as well.
