I recently sold my GT350 and have lucked upon an opportunity for a base GT500 at msrp. It's already ordered but per the factory I have two weeks to change the color, options to my choosing. Would this be a 2020 model or a 2021? Thanks for any feedback.
I agonized over the color choice. Went with Shadow Black and could not be happier. For those that say the details get lost, that is only in photos. In person and all shined up, she is a beast.

Xpel film over black takes all the work of upkeep away. You never have to deal with swirls and constantly polishing to keep the black looking great.. The only problem with Xpel is that it has its own orange peel in the film. I hear suntek is much better in that regard.

I read that in my own research when Dave was debating between the two for my car, about suntek. I haven't really noticed orange peel in the true sense, less so than the factory paint. The xpel doesn't bother me at all in that regard, and I can be really anal.

Ron, most of the gents that chimed in about color have brain damage. A shame really because they seem nice.
The choice is obvious, Grabber Lime.

You guys need to lay off the crack. Rapid red all day long, black stripes, black roof.

Great color choice. Are you going to keep her in that garage or putting some miles on her?

does Signature Wheels make anything for this yet?
