Sonic Blue and Sterling Gray now being offered for the 2012 GT500!!

Stolen from another forum. Cant wait to see it on the 2012 GT500. Colors are also available for the GT and V6.

"After all of the paint supplier issues after the Japanese tsunami, it should come as no surprise that Ford is having to come up with alternatives."

"Sonic Blue is showing as an option (late availability) for '12 Boss 302's and GT500's, while Sterling Gray is not a '12 Boss 302 or GT500 offering. Looks like Sterling Gray will be unique to V6 & GT models, while Sonic Blue will be offered on all Mustangs."

"Ford updated the order banks over the weekend. Looks like SB and SG are still showing (for GT & V6), so it's safe to say they're orderable....

CI GRABBER BLUE
HP PERFORM WHITE
L6 KONA BLUE
NQ YELLOW BLAZ TRI
PQ RACE RED
RZ RED CANDY TINT
SN SONIC BLUE
UA BLACK
UJ STERLING GRAY
UX INGOT SILVER
UZ LAVA RED
U6 RED CANDY TINT"

3 reds

4 reds

Nothing wrong with a little extra red. I was shocked they even did away with sterling gray...figured they were trying to make it a more exclusive color. Are there two different Red Candy's?

Looks like it

Agree, get the Sonic blue GT500. Stripe delete or the Le Mans stripes in silver or black or like a charcoal/graphite color. The Kona blue with red le mans stripes looks really good too. :)

Silver stripes go with everything. I think it's too late.. Though...

Agreed!! I have a plan and I'm going to stick with it. No regrets here. All though a 2013 sonic blue silver stripe 5.8 litre TVS would be cool. Something for me to think about!!!!

You will just lose your deposit correct?

There's always something better around the corner... just the way it is. I'm real anxious to see the unveiling of the 50th anniversary mustang....I'll be a kid in a candy store for sure.

Just don't listen to Jarrod. He's a Mopar guy ya know.

Love me some Mopar!

Dodge Viper ACR

This is being added to my wish list of toys to purchase for here in the future.

I wonder why no Sterling Gray on 2012 Shelbys? Hmmm, maybe it makes my 2011 all the better collectible. 2011 is the last year of Sterling Gray and 1st year of Aluminum block.

I originally was going to get a 2011 build to order GT...but then they said I was too late to build, and 2012's were coming...but then no sterling gray! So, I started looking around. I almost decided on a 2011 5XR Roush, which was about 1 or 2k cheaper than the Shelby...but I decided against it. To me, the Roush was cool...but just seemed like an over modded GT, and with too many dang decals to boot. The Shelby is pure class, IMO.

Lava Red is really a dark maroon, practically black until you look at it closely.

A Sonic Blue GT500 would look killer
