Upon initial launch in 2015, enthusiasts all across the United States and around the world were wondering if the S550 Mustang would live up to the legendary herd of past generations. After patiently waiting, it was revealed to the public in New York just as the original was in 1964 on top of the Empire State Building. At first glance, its design language speaks nothing but Mustang! With its trademark fastback profile like the 1965, 1967, and 1970 originals, the 2015 is the modern interpretation of the American icon.

Ford took advantage of the launch's timing because it happened to fall on the 50th anniversary of the legendary American icon. Due to this, the Mustang team had a brilliant idea to put together the most commemorative anniversary model to date. What they came up with was a unique styling package that would pay homage to the original 1964-1/2 Mustang, launched in Wimbledon white. Only 1,964 were made in this model with Mr. Bill Ford's signature on the dash plaque, to this day, collectors and enthusiasts revere these Mustangs.

Just as all Mustang models have been iconic, the S550 brought the pony to the twenty-first century in style, sophistication, and performance. The Mustang wouldn't be what it is today without its fantastic color options; these colors help bring out the tremendous design language and body lines. Below you will see the complete lineup of shades that Ford offered during the first phase of the S550 Mustang from 2015-2017.

After three years of unbelievable success, Ford knew it was time to put together a mid-cycle refresh to reinvigorate the Mustang community with something even more modern than the initial 2015 Mustang. What came about was a more edgy and impactful design that gave the Mustang a more aggressive look while maintaining Mustang lineage and design language. In 2018, the Mustang received even more paint color choices, options, and models. After years of success of the Cyclone V6, the Mustang would no longer have a six-cylinder engine in the lineup anymore replaced by the 2.3L EcoBoost 4-Cylinder Turbo.

Things started to heat up, especially in 2019, when Mustang engineers announced they would be bringing back a modern interpretation of the legendary Mustang Bullitt to pay homage to the original. More importantly, enthusiasts from all across the United States were anxiously waiting for the official unveiling of the most venomous Shelby GT500 ever to come from the factory to date. In January of 2019, Ford unveiled the highly anticipated 2020 Shelby GT500 with the Predator 5.2L Supercharged V8 engine. Along with the debut, it would come with a plethora of new color options, including Ford Performance Blue, Twister Orange, and Grabber Lime, to name a few.

2021-2022 Mustang Color Options

The S550 Mustang has been a massive success since the start, and the 2021 and 2022 models are following the same trajectory. While some trims such as the GT350 and the Mustang GT Performance Package 2 have died off, new trim levels such as the Mach 1 have replaced them in both their niche in the lineup but on the track as well. As Ford gets ready to replace the S550 generation of the Mustang with the yet-to-be-seen S650, they have brought out some new colors that truly stand out as a bit of a last celebration of the generation.

Ford also has decided to share its color pallete with other vehicles they develop, leading to crossover colors from vehicles like the Bronco and even the F-250 Super Duty in some cases. Some colors are entirely new, such as Mischevious Purple which is the first time Ford has done a purple color since the 1997 Ford Windstar minivan.
