rmc523 Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 My dealer has finally gotten a few '10 Mustangs, I'm gonna try to go test one one of these days... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BORG Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 I stopped by the Ford dealership again and they had a Ford Fusion Sport. I took photos with my iPhone and I'll get those up later. The Snowflake wheels are some kind of clad wheel, not just hubcaps over steel wheels. They are plastic over alloy, very flimsy and cheap looking. They replace the standard alloys of the previous model which is not acceptable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WaylonJennings Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Great photos! That's dedication, out there in the rain and all! Thanks! Yeah, it was pretty nasty today, but since it was raining out, it gave me more time to do such a thing. A couple of notes, we tinted both of the 2010's and we added the stripes to the Mustang. We had the silver stripes done to it, like the ones on the 2010 GT500. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fusion looks best in White from the rear, but best in black from the front Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvrsvt Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I'm paying $38,000 for a Taurus SHO with 360HP, better fuel economy, and more comfort. The SHO Starts at 38K without much in the way of options...loaded they go for about 45K or so Mustang GT is nice, but not $38,000 nice. They've gotten too expensive. The two biggest ticket options on the Mustang are the Glass Roof and Nav system...get rid of them and the car costs about 34K or so. I did a comparison of the '10 vs my '06 Options and the price only went up like 1.5K or so and many of the options that I had my car had are now standard on the '10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BORG Posted April 21, 2009 Author Share Posted April 21, 2009 (edited) I added the Fusion Sport Photos to my gallery starting on this page. Again, this is an iPhone so don't expect much . Edited April 21, 2009 by BORG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand why Grabber blue could not be offered with Saddle, or why you cannot get a stone interior with a Glass roof? -Also, I think they should offer blue stripes for Performance White models.

V8-X Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 (edited) I don't know what it is, mostly from what I can tell is I do not like the Fusion or Mustang from the rear simply due to the tail lamps. Just don't looke like they fit with the style of cars, IMHO. Now I'm trying to decide which I like better, The Stang with or without the HID's, as in this image of Borgs. I personally like the darker red on the Stang with HIDs, but like the look of the normal headlamp assembly.

Alex D. Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 :lol: ---- Is Kona Blue lighter than Dark Ink Blue? Yes, Dark Ink Blue is a very dark blue, almost looks black in the right lighting conditions. Kona Blue is a fairly deep blue, but there is no mistaking it for black.

Only aspect I dislike that I can see, are the tail lights. Otherwise looks perfect! Then again I'm partial to Dark Blue, Racing Stripes and Ford Mustangs, so I might be a little biased.

I liked it a lot actually.....the whole car looked great. It was a black on black GT coupe. I hope to go test drive one soon.....I think I"m gonna wait until there's a few others in, though. Yes, Dark Ink Blue is a very dark blue, almost looks black in the right lighting conditions. Kona Blue is a fairly deep blue, but there is no mistaking it for black. Yes, I've seen DI Blue, and as you said, it's black everywhere except in direct sunlight. Glad to hear it's lighter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it purpleish like the Wedgewood Blue Ford used to offer? Had a '99 Ranger with the Wedgewood and people never knew if it was blue, purple or black.

My dad's is MWB and its clearly blue... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
