About Amie Williams

My love for cars and fine machinery started when I was a kid spending my summers at various airports helping my dad work on airplanes. He was a professional skydiver and pilot and I was there to lend a helping hand. After he passed, I found a passion for Ford, mainly Mustangs, and have had the pleasure of owning a couple of self-modded ‘Stangs thus far. Although he was a Chevy guy at heart, he’d be proud to know that the tinkering around on planes and old cars led into a full-blown passion of mine which I’m sure would have made for a fun rivalry.

Mystichrome is by far the coolest paint that has ever been put on a mustang. It is a beautiful color and you don’t just get 1 color you get many colors. Don’t get me wrong I love a the other colors but not one other auto company has ever put this color on their cars that’s why it’s the best and the most unique.

Don’t forget about 40th Anniversary Crimson!

I agree, but mystichrome looks best on the 1996 SVT Cobra and later mustangs. I also think it is a unique color, but the Mustang has always had solid paint jobs since its 1964 1/2 introduction. Black is an extremely adaptable color for all Mustangs. It gives the car a very muscular look from the late 60′s and brings out racing stripes the best. As an added bonus, the lack of racing stripes and other exterior modifications gives the Mustang an equally menacing presence if it is painted black.

I own a 2004 SVT COBRA and the color is MYSTICCHROME, AND IT BY FAR THE MOST UNIQUE COLOR THAT FORD HAS OFFERED.
I agree with your comment completely.

RM

Flat Black stripes on black body.

Evan

That sounds mean! Thanks for the idea.
Roushdude

RM. that is the them of the 07, 08, 09 roush blackjack. not so much the color, but that is the meanest looking non exotic i have seen. the first time i saw one i was like “holly sh-t, that is one evil lookiong car. if i saw this black jack coming up behind, even if i were in a lambo, i would maybe give second thought. try and get to a car show that ight feature roushes. u see ehat i mea.

however, check out a roush in “true blue”, circa 2001, and 2002. i had more than one ford hatt. tell me that they hate fords but that color is hot.

Joe

what about mineral grey?!? it was mentioned several times on the previous facebook post, but its not listed as a choice!!!

miller

Ahhhh…2001 GT…Mineral Grey with a black convertible top, black interior… 18″ athracite deepdish bullits….2001 Bullit rocker panels… chin spoiler…grill delete….nuthin finer..!!

Piotr

Grabber Orange FTW!
Doug

Royal blue, it’s a dark blue with sort of purple hue in certain light it was an option in ’93.
http://www.listangs.com Alex

ummmm ATLANTIC BLUE! That blue is SO different I get compliments all teh time from all kinds of car owners, how could it not even be on the list!
brian

calypso coral orange. amazing color on the 70 mach 1′s

http://www.thundervalleymustang.org James Taylor

Ditto …. wasn’t even listed . :/

http://www.americanmuscle.com AMChrisRose

We couldn’t list them all, it would have been a nightmare! We made sure to put other as a choice so you could comment here! Calypso is a sweet color, true!

http://www.safeguardmax.com George

I considered this the same catagory as Grabber Orange and that was my vote.

Jake

Candy Apple Red!

Jordan

Best color ever

Destrier

Sterling Gray. It is inconceivable that Ford is not bringing it back for 2012.

Anna

i got sterling grey on a 2011. I love that color

Guy

Have to agree with Sterling Grey – have it on my 2010 GT convertible and it’s beautiful. It may not stand out as much as some of the colors, but it’s classic and perfect on this car!

Sarah

What about Alloy??? Wheres the love? I love the metallic flake. It looks black at night but during the day man she pops!

Donna

You are so right Sarah! Love the alloy on my 08 so much I won’t trade for a 2011! Obviously people haven’t seen the Alloy or it would have been a landslide vote for it! lol!

Tom

You are both so right. I have the alloy 08 Gt also and always get compliments.

Mike

I get a lot of compliments on my 07 Alloy convertible Gt

bill

white with most ant accent colors isalways good looking. Black on white, yes.
bill

white with most any accent colors is always good looking. Black on white, yes.
JoNNy

on the Dark red if you put Dark Candy Apple Red that would of got the votes
Colby

True Blue for the win!! limited number of bullits produced in that color. Plus you dont see a hole lot of TB gt’s around. I love my 2001 TB GT.

Phil

Plus 2 on TB!! That color is very sharp looking! I would love to own a GT in TB.

Ritchie

Another for mineral grey!
Jay Hintze

Laser Red!

http://badponyclub.com Greg

Beautiful color on the Mustangs!
Ken B

Agree, always think of the one I sold.

http://www.mustangevolution.com Lowflyn

Sonic Blue is the fastest – period. Anyone that thinks otherwise is too slow to realize.
Rich murphy

true blue!!!!!!
Mark Dean

The best color is 2010 Candy Red Metallic.
http://www.facebook.com/AmiePants Amie Williams

Where are my Sonic Blue people?
Nick

MINERAL GREY!!!
Midnight Pony

Alloy Metallic is my vote I love that color.

Donna

Totally agreed!

Woz

Alloy Metallic by far. So unique and just simply perfection!

Donna

Couldn’t have said it better!
Tom

You got it right!

http://www.facebook.com/AmiePants Amie Williams

Grabber Blue also rocks my socks off.
Mitchell

Dark shadow gray on an 04 GT, Metallic flake looks incredible in the sunlight and the gray doesn’t draw attention at night. Throw in some black stripes and accents and it’s perfect.
Tyler Ishee

Um Wtf? How can you leave out Dark Shadow Gray, Bright Atlantic Blue, and Mystic (much different than Mystichrome). You call yourselves enthusiasts?
Donna

ALLOY! Most awesome color ever! I can’t believe Tungsten with the purple tint would be listed and not Alloy. I want a new Mustang with Sync and all the bells and whistles, but I can’t get rid of my 08 Alloy Mustang GT. If they ever produce a 2011 Alloy Mustang, I will be all over that!
Edward Greybeck

The Torch Red mustang should be the best color.
As Lee Iacocca said,”There’s nothing like a little Red Mustang” as he saw the new 1964 mustang turn up the street from 200 yards away.
Peter

True blue metallic. When the sun hits it and you can see purple blue and green at the same time it looks awesome.
Sam

BLACK is the best color. With tinted windows and black wheels

Connal Rowe

I like black best but my next one will be silver.I run a carwash and I,ve learned from experience that black is just too much work.

http://badponyclub.com Greg

Laser Red by far is my favorite color on Mustangs!
Mike

The baddest NA Mustang ever built was the 2000 COBRA R and it was Performance Red and only 300 were made. My 2001 COBRA is also Performance Red and is the rarest of all COBRA coupes as it is 1 of 226 ever made! How’s that for exclusive? All the other colors are generic and not as limited! The Mystic COBRA’s are a good 2nd place choice!

http://americanMuscle phoenyx

performance red is the real deal, o haven’t seen alloy yet but sounds nice

http://Unitedstangs.com timmy

Chrome yellow
Richie

true blue metallic
Brett

I have to vote biased towards my own mustang! Forest green it is!
Tom

Grabber Orange… What other color just pops out at you when your tooling down the road.. IT just pulls your attention. Yes the other colors are ok..but just that o.k….They get lost amongst all the other siver, red, blue, grey , black cars that are on the road. But Grabber Orange.. It says MUSTANG !
Brian

Mineral Gray! Looks good on ever body style I have seen it on.. especially the 99-04.
john gilbert

mineral gray!!!!!!
rick pierce

another for mineral gray !!!!
doug

Sonic blue….only one year of production for the S197…i know the 04′s had it as well… not sure about prior years though.
Thomas

Either alloy, tungsten or legend lime. My 07 is alloy, i think it was the only year it was used.

Donna

They used alloy on 08′s too. That is what I have, and I can’t bear to part with it because of the color. I really want a new Mustang with sync, but it just isn’t happening for me in sterling grey.

mike

torch red
dillon

Black with Grabber blue stripes
Tyler

Crimson Red with the Arizona Sand racing stripes on the 40th anniversary mustang!!!!
Ron Melin

Honestly? Mustangs are such great looking cars it doesn’t matter what color they are. You could throw some John Deere green on one and it would still look sweet. But, since mine is satin silver with black stripes, I had to vote for it.
http://www.silvermustangs.com Donnie Salter

SILVER! The army from silvermustangs.com is representing all shades of silver and grey! Go silver go!!!

Kayla Gourgues

Amen!! SMR all the way!

Pedro Espinola

I vote for none other than, Sonic Blue. Not only do I own a 40th Anniversery Sonic Blue GT, but trust me when I say so, my friends have GT’s as well and all have complimented and still compliment from now and then on my paint. It is indeed a very rare paint that you dont see too often. By the way, their cars are an Electric Green, Silver, Torch red, and Azure Blue.
