Replying to: mschmal (Aug 14, 2007 7:22 am) I can't imagine they look too good on a Mustang.

Replying to: cougarjunkie (Aug 14, 2007 1:16 pm) Apparently Ford changed the appearance of DCAR. There are two DCAR 08 Mustangs listed on Ebay. The sticker just says Dark Candy Apple Red Clearcoat. It appears the color is no longer a metallic. That is a pretty major error in their brochure.

Replying to: mschmal (Aug 17, 2007 3:28 am) Because he posted a copy of the sticker. Replies to this message: cougarjunkie (Aug 17, 2007 10:33 am) cccompson (Aug 18, 2007 2:05 pm)

Replying to: 08pony (Aug 17, 2007 4:08 am) The sticker is erroneous. I can't imagine there being two DCARs. I've seen it. It's metallic. You can take that to the bank. Replies to this message: cccompson (Aug 18, 2007 2:05 pm)

Replying to: cougarjunkie (Aug 17, 2007 10:33 am) Metallic or pearlescent?   I would think the latter is more likely.

I apologize. DCAR is NOT metallic. This is based on me looking at a 2008 GT CS up close on my lot.   The insert that Ford shipped with our color catalogue shows a metallic version of DCAR but that is not what is on the cars from the Factory.   The order guide also says that DCAR is metallic.:   EXTERIOR COLOR CHANGES New Colors Added:�� — Silver Clearcoat Metallic (Replacing Satin Silver) (YN) — Dark Candy Apple Red Clearcoat Metallic (Replaces Redfire) (JV) — Vapor Clearcoat Metallic (Replacing Tungsten) (ZY)   Typical FORD, say one thing do another.   Incidently, it could just be a screw up. Dark Toradore Red comes in both clearcoat and clearcoat metallic.   Mark. Replies to this message: 08pony (Aug 20, 2007 6:38 pm)

Replying to: mschmal (Aug 20, 2007 2:38 pm) I am really confused. Cougarjunkie, 2008 order guide, Edmunds.com, and brochure all say DCAR is metallic. Mark, do you have more than one on the lot? Could the paint be defective on your in stock vehicle? It seems really strange they would make a change like that after all the literature is printed. I really do prefer a metallic paint. I would have picked another color had I known.
#2645 of 2847 Re: Stang Drain [veight] by cccompson Aug 25, 2007 (1:40 pm)
As near as I can tell, the battery drain relates to power drawn by the radio and, possibly, the alarm system. I've have no problem so long as I remember to turn the radio off when parking. Fortunately, the car's garaged so I have no need to activate the alarm. Replies to this message: nvbanker (Aug 25, 2007 9:21 pm)
