I like it, I like it alot. Damn that Ingot silver is sharp.
Hey thanks! Wish I could have picked up a Black one, but the deal was just too good for this '17 nonPP. I was considering a PP for the PTU cooler, but found out from the dealership a few days ago that mine has a cooler. Bonus! I think the Mirror faced wheels look amazing with the silver though, there's juuuust enough shiny metal/chrome to catch your eye. Wish I could get the rear wheels a little more flush with the fenders, but sadly could only find the Nurbies in +40 offset, and spacers are meh

Trust me, you will be happier in the long run with the silver. Black sucks. It is terrible, espically if you are OCD like me. I would trade my black SHO in heart beat for a silver PP with similar mileage.

This...

I never wanted a straight black car in my life (still don't) but I ended up with a tuxedo black SHO. If i could trade it for the same car but literally any other color I would do it right now.

Exactly. Nothing looks better then a detailed black mirrored car. However that lasts for all of 30 mins. The Ingot Silver with a full correction, and tinted windows is my favorite.

Both my SHO and my new edge mustang are ingot silver, it's a great color for everything. I really like the green gem too, but couldn't find one in that color :/

Like an idiot, I have two tuxedo black vehicles.

I feel exactly the opposite. I loved the Tuxedo Black on the '13 Fiesta I bought for my grandson so much, that I shopped ONLY for Tuxedo Black in my new car. The '15 Mustang GT was not available in Tuxedo Black, so I compromised on the SHO. Also looked at a Tuxedo Black EB Flex. I keep my California Car Duster handy at all times, and keep a bottle of Meguiar's Final Inspection in the detailing bag. My next car will be a black SL 63 AMG (I hope.)

2B15962B B7FE 4B67 BAEF D834309DCE59 My last two cars, for 15 years, were black. I couldn’t even stand to see other people’s black cars that weren’t detailed and maintained. It’s like being on a long vacation with the premium metallic tricoat!

No truer words about a black car have ever been spoken.

You cleary aren't as OCD about keeping a black car mirror shinny and clean at all times like I am. I have a sickness.

Ruby red is no joke to take care of either ! I say it to myself everyday , every wipe of every panel. Haah ! Had the white tri coat on the limited and it was awesome. Black is my favorite though. Ruby red is the last dark color I will ever have again. That silver is the choice. Just for thought, what you guys think about color coating the stock wheels with the ruby red (only where the black is ) ? really considering this.

It would be very unique and probably look great. You can always go back to black. After all, it’s only money! I’m thinking about doing the black on the wheels and the side view mirrors in a color I’ve seen on either a flex or an explorer. It’s a dark charcoal, almost black, with very heavy metal flake.

Sorry couldn't resist.
24" tapered tread steel wheels, 2 idle and 1 drive, finished in 2 part poly- urethane Slab Yard Yellow and sitting in a custom wheel stand specifically built to the wheel.
