Terrible picture, but there is a Cinnamon SHO at Sheehy Ford in Gaithersburg, MD. I really liked the color..

Here is the Atlantis Green. She arrived on 1 October. I also liked the Cinnamon, but chose the green. It is very dark, but I'm happy with the choice. The car is also more than I expected. I retired a '92 SHO 5-speed with 184,000 miles that I bought new. A Ford service manager bought it. I miss the manual as I have only driven manuals since I started driving, but I really don't mind the paddle shifter.

Nice.

Also, could you clarify what you mean by The car is also more than I expected? :naughty:

Kinda looks like British Racing Green. I've said this before, but pictures don't really do the colors justice in bright sun. They're just so much more impressive in person. Anyone have any pictures of a White Platinum SHO? That was my first color choice, but I didn't like the contrast with the basically black interior. I like Tuxedo Black, but I don't know how it's going to hold up as a daily driver. My '89 Mustang is black and didn't have clearcoat, it didn't fare well over the years, ie. swirl marks. Like Gino Vanelli said, black cars look better in the shade.

It's bigger and heavier.:evilgrin:

Seriously, and remembering the car I replaced was 17 years old...

This one is the 400A base model with the 12S performance pack. The 2010 SHO is solid all the way around. Everything seems to fit tightly and work smoothly inside and out. All the instruments and controls are easy to see, reach and use. The only thing I find strange is that there is no red line on the tach.

Handling is precise and steering is easy. The steering wheel is big and hands fit comfortably on it. I haven't given the brakes a hard test and hope I don't have to very often. I don't plan on driving on a track so I'm not concerned about them as long as they work as advertised in a panic stop. As fast as this thing goes it had better stop fast, too.

Performance? It will cause your back to press up against the seat back. What has been reported with zero to 60, somewhere around 5 seconds? I haven't timed it, but it feels like it.

Does that help?

I agree with the British Racing Green...BUT,Bud,...You constantly refer to Steel Blue as "Old Man Blue"..and now you're quoting Gino Vannelli!!! :rofl:...Thanks,Old Soul, I needed that laugh today.:sun:

I can't take the credit for coining Steel Blue as "Old Man Blue", but I thought it was appropriate. Glad I could make you laugh :)

At the local dealership I was checking out the SHO stock and I also grabbed a pic showing off the true color and metallic of Atlantis Green:

4044103569 9a5d6c3e84

I figured some people haven't really seen this color in this type of light before and it pretty much looks like black in most types of light.

I also saw two Fusion Hybrids in Atlantis Green there too, which I didn't even know was available on the Hybrids. It looks good on that too IMO.

I'm sorry, but it's just way too dark for me, IMO.

I need a shade that's not too bright, but not too dark that you can't tell it's color at night time...
