In my opinion, no. Sterling Gray is a very consistent gray color, where Magnetic is almost a black, gray, silver mix depending on the light and angle. Sterling Gray is not as reflective or dynamic as Magnetic, which might be good or bad depending on your opinion.

They had a Magnetic SHO in the showroom today and an Explorer Sport on the lot. It's not black at all and more grey than Sterling Grey and slightly darker. Magnetic doesn't get as light under the sun. I have a Sterling Grey Escape and like Magnetic MUCH better.

Here are pics of the SHO.

Is Magnetic a metallic paint?

 

[DivineStrike]

Yes and it is glorious

Very much so, it makes my Shelby feel cheap inside.

I'm not trying to be a jerk but I'm so glad you said that. That has been my fear the whole time.

I had an 08 and went to a 2011 and it never felt much better inside. Even with premium and Saddle interior....it always felt cheap...better looking but cheap.

I'm glad that the 2015 feels better.

Ford really needs to get rid of the faux chrome plastic on the interior, it cheapens an otherwise stunning car. I don't mind plastic, but the faux chrome plastic just screams cheap to me. Maybe it would look too dull in another finish? I could definitely do without it.

But It's Not Faux Chrome Plastic. The Switches and Toggles are Real Solid Aluminum/Metal Pieces and the Shifter and Shift Knob are Solid Metal as well. I sat in the Guard Eco-Boost at Brandon Ford last week and Trust Me, It Looks and Feels VERY UPSCALE. Not Cheap at All. They went All Out on this Car spending Money where it Needed to Be Spent to make this car Feel Much More Expensive than it is. .

Ok thanks. I have not see the car in person yet, so maybe I'll change my mind...How about the ring around the cup holder? It just looks auto zone blingy to me.

Awesome, thanks!

Yeah, the new interior is what is really making me want one of the new cars. The '10+ cars have a much nicer interior than the '05-'09 cars, but nothing like the pics I've seen of the '15.

I've been trying to convince my wife to trade her ST in on an ecoboost Mustang, but she has a thing about hatchbacks and is refusing to trade.

Nice pics. The silver looks really good. That gray on the sho seemed too brownish.

Not brown in person. I feel Sterling is more brownish in sunlight.

That piece I really didn't pay attention to. I think it would look Cheap without it though.

It could look like this.....

The red interior works very well with the silver. Glad I went that route.

Truth.

And it's sensational with Magnetic and black, too.

Decisions, decisions ...

Nice report thanks. if Looking at the front, the left seam along the hood/fender seems to suffer from a gap/misaligment issue, compared to right...Hopefully preprod issue.

Car looks amazing, but Ford really needs to get rid of the faux chrome plastic on the interior, it cheapens an otherwise stunning car. I don't mind plastic, but the faux chrome plastic just screams cheap to me. Maybe it would look too dull in another finish? I could definitely do without it.

All of the chrome and metal pieces are infact real chrome metal and aluminum...there is no more fake plastic faux metal trim !!! Many of the Ford interior videos posted on here have explained this by the Ford designers.

:barf: :barf: :barf:

I'll take This Any Day Over That!
