it is orange. its called inferno orange metallic. the leather is the same thing. you get IOM lighting when you upgrade your interior to the IOM package. if it were red i would be all over it.

No, but I've had a few loaners for Parades. I got to drive them for the weekend. Couldn't stop playing with the My Color. Love it. Just having the option to change the color of your interior lighting on a whim is awesome. Because I HATE the green that Ford uses on all of thier other cars. And for the record, I would ONLY own a Mustang if the Camaro and Challenger weren't around.

I see what you are saying, but at least you can change some of it away from that hideous Ford Green.

but that makes it worse believe it or not only cause you can change it to look cool and that ends up making the rest look real bad. i ended up putting it back to "ford green" so at least it all matched.

I am still wondering if you were to install those colored door and dash panels, if the ABL would change color from the standard blue or orange colors. I know that there was some rumors that the blue color would change to a purplish color if the Victory Red panels were installed...but if you look closely at those GM press pics of the colored panels, it appears that the ABL pipes look to be above the panels, and not behind them. I guess we will find out soon enough. I actually like the standard silver ones that are part of the black leather interior.

the ambient lighting on the S550 is one of the things that made my Dad want it so much. MB did a very good job with it. It is designed so that you don't see the lights, but there is light where you want it that does not distract the driver at all. The intensity/brightness of the lighting is also adjustable.
I should go over to my parents some night and make a video of the lighting.

That is what I thought. So if someone buys the colored trim kits, it would not change the color of the blue or orange ABL then? The VR ones might look good in my VR car, but I do really like the look of the standard silver ones!
