I respect your opinion, but that red interior is good looking, but i think it wont be that great after say 3 years :/ thats why i chose the black interior.

Plus even if i go with the black GT500 there isn't anyone here who provide such car services like adding stripes to a car lol

for example back then on one of my old cars "Lumina V6 1998" i wanted to have stripes but of course i couldn't afford a Gt500 so i had to use those rolls of paper that stick on one end and have any color in the other end. the ones you can use for decorating books or desk tops lol. and i had to install/stick it my self. it was not aligned but looked kinda nice lol

Oh yeah they will wash it once the car is purchased

The stripes are flat black, not grey. So triple black is the sexterior, interior and stripes

Ok so (Black Stripes) + (Black Car) ... doesn't that equal black ? I mean if the car is black and the stripes are black then those stripes aren't going to be visible ? just like painting a wall white then decorating it with white decorations ... nothing is going to be viewable ?

Either that or i'm missing out on something, it better not be a joke man lol

the stripes are not flat black. the official color name on the stripes is alloy metallic, which really means dark gray.

triple black usually means black interior, black paint, black convertible top. which is clearly not the case here seeing forkedtongue is buying a coupe.

this is what flat black stripes look like on black cars

btw gt500s dont normally sell flat black stripes, this is special edition gt500kr. one and only gt500kr with a glass roof i believe.

here's the view of the glass roof

Ahaaaaaaaa !! I Can see again !! lol

So the car is Black and the stripes are black, However the car will have that "Metallic" shine to it. While those stripes will not. they will be dark Black or lets say not shiny black as in no reflection of light at all

Those pics look nice i have to say, but we don't have such shops here that support that kind of thing. i would have to order them and then install them.

But to be honest, the Dark Gray stripes look cooler, plus me and "08blkgt500" will be ride buddies !! ....

True, but i don't have that kind of option :/

the other colors are yellow and red, and i don't think i will be owning a red car in my life time lol ... and don't get me starting on yellow lol

If it were possible, I would get a grabber orange GT500, but... in your case, I'd go with the black with stripes, although I do like that red and black interior...

Orange ! omg lol i would wear a mask when driving it lol

The Black + Dark Gray stripes i believe matches my personality, and has the right touch of a Shelby, Not too flashy so people would turn heads for it ! yet sporty like and cool looking so people would recognize it from close range

The red interior though didn't click when i saw it, .... and between you & me my wife likes it. and i personally like it when everything it just plan black, you know just like the song "I See a RED Door & I want to paint it BLACK" lol

Out of those choices I'd go with the black on black with dark gray stripes for sure

but really, its your car, you choose the color you want the most.

btw man those gt500s are FILTHY! how can the dealership be so careless!?

I'm partial to vapor with the black stripes myself. Before my Shelby I had a black GT and it was nice when it was clean but a pain in the butt to keep it that way. As far as the cars needing a bath you're absolutely right, but being in those "areas" before I can tell you it's damn near impossible to keep the dust/dirt off. The wind blows really fine dust around and it gets into everything.

OP, for what it's worth, if that's your only two choices I agree with BLK. Congrats!
