Getting a New Car, can't decide the color!!!

Hey guys,

I know this might not be the best place to discuss this, but anyway I thought i needed some Help,

Currently im on the Hunt for a new toy, after researching around for the car that mostly suit my needs, I found out that a 03-04 Mustang GT is just what I need

I really loved the look of the those mustangs back in 2002 and 2003, so now finally im having the chance to get one! I've searched around here and found many, I narrowed my search to the following stangs:

03 Black Mustang: Bone Stock - US Imported - Slightly high price
03 Dark Shadow Gray Mustang: Bone Stock - US Imported - Great Price

Now both are in super beauty shape, I love the DSG color, but black is also sick, so can you please Suggest?

Here are an Example in case you wanted to figure it:

Black Stang


(Hope the owner of this car won't mind he's a member in here)

DSG Stang



I know both of these are Cobras, but Im planning to get my GT look like a Cobra (Cobras are too $$$ for my Budget!!)

Which one shall I get?

Thanks!

My vote goes for the Dark Shadow Grey but I am a little biased on the color.

I wouldn't worry to much about color choice between the two, I would worry more about the way they were used and maintained more than color. I would then pick the one that was better maintained and less abused.

ditto, the difference is subtle, it's not like you're asking yellow, red or purple.

Like 'em both, but if the other factors are similar, I'd go with the DSG.

Years back I bought the baddest Turbo Supra I could find. It was one helva car too! It was nothing to sit that puppy on 150 mph and cruise. About the only thing it wouldn't out run was the DPS radio. Anyway, it was in what they called Hard Metallic Grey. It's pretty much like the Stang grey. I renamed it Camouflage Asphalt as folks would pull out in front of me like they could never see me. I ended up putting running lights on it and that stopped the morons from pulling out. I've noticed since that experience that sometimes grey colored cars are hard to see against asphalt. I'd suggest any color but grey.

My wife drives an '03 Mustang in DSG and it stays "clean looking" weeks longer than my black F150. I love the DSG and if I had it to do over again I would have my exact same truck...but with my wife's paint.

All things being equal, I'd go with the black.

or it could be the fact you were driving a high-performance sports car and they were jealous?
