Ford has announced the return of a high impact color, Grabber Lime, to the Mustang lineup by timing the news with the observance of St. Patrick’s Day. Following a trend established by Dodge in bringing back high impact colors from the 1970s, the 2020 Ford Mustang will be available in Grabber Lime at no extra charge. It joins Twister Orange as the other throwback color in the Mustang palette.

In describing the new hue, Barb Whalen, Ford’s color and materials manager, explained “It’s lime green on steroids. This color trans back to a Mustang heritage color while bringing it forward with more modern, dynamic pigments and bold new energy. These bright, vibrant retro colors are trending in design – in home furnishings, sportswear and even appliances.” Heaven forfend a return to Avocado-colored refrigerators.
