I love it when people can't deal with critisicsm :)
There is a difference in criticism and ridicule. Look it up. Criticism offers valid reasoning. Ridicule is calling names and voicing opinion as fact. I welcome criticism. I despise ridicule. Trolls ridicule, you are better than that.

I heard the same "girlie color" comments when I ordered my 2010 in Grabber Blue. Piss off is my response. [emoji1]

"One thing the eye doesn’t miss on entering the studio is the extraordinary yellow of the ’15. It isn’t a faint-of-heart canary yellow. It’s a yellow for true aficionados—Lampinen informs me that there is, in fact, a Yellow Mustang Car Club. “Color is a very passionate thing with people,” she says. “We wanted a high-impact yellow. At first we developed a base coat/clear coat but it wasn’t bright enough, so we worked with engineering and suppliers until we came up with this new yellow, a tri-coat yellow. ” The deep and intense new shade is reminiscent of the kind of multicoated treatment hot-rodders used on their rides back in the day."

Very nice!!!!

The Shade of Yellow that I Believe Lampinen is talking about that they were going for is the Color Seen on John Milner's 38 Deuce Coupe in American Graffiti. Personally I think Triple Yellow is a Perfect Shade of Bright Primary Yellow not a God Awful Scool Bus Yellow that has way too much Orange to it in My Opinion, and Not a Washed Out Pale Yellow like Zinc or Canary Yellow.

Just for kicks here is a red to yellow color spectrum. I've placed Race Red, Competition Orange, Grabber Orange, School Bus Yellow and Triple Yellow in the areas in which I believe those colors fall.

Just from eyeballing it TY is an almost dead on primary yellow. I would call Race Red a dead on primary red. From where I've placed CO it is a red-orange and GO is a more orange-yellow. School Bus yellow is more of a yellow-orange. This is all by eyeball by the way and just for those interested in shades of color. A lot probably depends on your monitor and how it produces color as well.

EXACTLY! :thumbsup:
I think School Bus Yellow is a little closer to the Yellow end of the spectrum, Half way between Grabber Orange and Triple Yellow, but the rest are Dead On!

I get positive comments every single time I go out in my GB 2013. I have no doubt that I will continue to get them in my 2015 TY GT + PP.

Yep, I may need to move SBY just a hair to the right. Most school busses are more orange than yellow anyway.

Yellow is a Very Polarizing Color anyway. If You've ever seen American Graffiti you'll remember Harrison Ford's character Bob Falfa calling John Milner's 38 Deuce Coupe "Piss Yellow" just to Piss Him Off.

Don't lump Canary yellow with that god-awful Zinc yellow! LOL...Canary/Chrome yellow (the same I believe) are very close to Screaming Yellow used from 2004-2006, which I also like. Not sure how it compares exactly to TY, at least not until I have both in my garage soon :headbang:

What's up with the lower grill? Dang prototypes! That looks like the lower grill from the V6s, which if the B&P is right, it is also the lower grill on the 50th Anniv. package cars...fugly...I love the matching fang lower grill myself.

Agreed. Great work with the color charts, seriously. I agree with all of your analysis. Race red is a lovely true red and TY seems like an amazing true yellow. Super excited for my car to arrive. No just need to figure out what happened with my Recaros being deleted in the Ford order tool!!!
