“Any customer can have a car painted any color that he wants so long as it is black.”
-Henry FordHenry Ford's famous words regarding the original Model T. Years later, black remains the top color selection of a certain Ford for consumers, a car which may be even more iconic than the prestigious Model-T: the Ford Mustang.
For the 2015 model year, Ford has officially introduced the popular "pony car" to several global markets for the first time in the car's now 50-year history. The Mustang is now available in the China, Europe, and Africa regions. Ford has recently released the most popular colors in some of these areas after initial sales (see above). The foremost were red and black, both appearing in the top 3 for each market sample analyzed. The second favorite US color was "Magnetic Metallic" something akin to a gun metal gray, China liked the "Oxford White", and the European region favored "Deep Impact Blue".
What would be genuinely awesome, was if Ford were to make the Mustang available in the same color selections of past years. For example in the 1960s ('67 to be precise) the Mustang was available in a whopping 40 different colors. Talk about choices.
In the end, the entire world seems to agree that the Mustang looks fantastic in black. However, the next favorite colors? Red, White and Blue...
