Too bad I'm blue-green colorblind. I bet it really looks good to those of you that can see it.

I recently purchased at 2015 GT in the Guard color and it has all of the options I wanted except spoiler delete.

If anyone buys a mustang in guard color and wants to swap out trunk lids to add the spoiler, let me know!

My pony, finally
Mine will look like this in fastback. Patience is not one of my virtues and now I have to wait 3 months for my beauty to arrive... :frusty:

So I am really confused.. I went and saw guard on a fusion a few weeks ago and something about it didn't sit right with me and I thought I definitely didn't like it. But almost all of the pictures of it on the mustang in this thread are wanting me to get it. I especially like most of the pictures that show the color's darker sides. Like these two pictures, I like it on the mustang but not on the fusion. How accurate are these two pictures to the real color?

Yep that's Guard! if you're on the fence go with a different color...please, I'm not kidding way too many people jumping on the Guard bandwagon lately.

Just don't switch to Magnetic, whatever you do.

It's a beautiful color. I also hope it's not a popular choice because I have one and unlike being somewhat unique. Haha

Yeah as you can see I'm on the first few pages. Lack of quality pics initially swayed me but I stayed the course. LOL

Someone should combine those two photos and post them on the sites where people claim the mustang is a fusion. I like fusions but if you can't tell one is a sporty family car and one is a refined muscle/sports car with much more power and aggression you're blind.

Its funny how that quick pic I took coming back from the rest room at Ikea has ended up being one of my favs.

Having seen a Guard Eco-Boost Coupe in Brandon I have to say it looked closer to the Color on the Fusion in My Opinion. It Didn't look as Green as the Pic of the Mustang you posted. It's definitely a Polarizing Color. Either You Love it or You Don't.

Nice...those pics were taken at Brandon Ford in the Tampa Bay area? I might have to swing by and take a look. I wasn't aware of any arriving yet.

The Guard does look nice but it's not green enough for me to separate itself from the Magnetic (which is my favorite color). It doesn't look bad...I just prefer greens to be deeper and more actual green. I have owned a Black 2003 and for years have loved the look of the charcoal gray cars and the Magnetic just looks great.

Also...those 18" rims actually don't look too bad. I am surprised. Some of the other angles, the car looked to ride to high and there was too much of a gap and sometimes too much tire...but in those pics...it actually is pretty nice. I am leaning towards getting the 50th pkg...but those aren't a bad option if I want to save a little money.

That was a traning car at Brandon Ford a couple of months ago. I don't think they've got any in yet. Bill Currie on Dale Mabry is supposed to have some in stock according to the Ford Website but I haven't gotten over there yet.

The Car is Gorgeous but Guard just did Nothing for Me. Same goes for the Wheels. I Hate how the Spokes Narrow and how they Stick Out Higher than Either End at their Bent Point. They Remind Me of Spiders at certain angles. I'm leaning toward the 18" Foundry Wheels at the moment. Unless I give in and get the Performance Package Eco-Boost. But then I'm going to eventually end up having to get those Black Wheels Refinished in Gunmetal.
