Grabber Lime 2020 Ford Mustang.
Okay, so Henry was Irish, and just in time for St. Patrick’s Day, Ford is unveiling Grabber Lime for the 2020 Mustang. The green inspired by a vintage Mustang color from the 1970s Ford claims “is sure to leave other muscle cars green with envy.” The new 2020 Ford Mustang arrives this fall.

“It’s lime green on steroids,” said Barb Whalen, Ford color and materials manager. “This color traces back to a Mustang heritage color while bringing it forward with more modern, dynamic pigments and bold new energy.”
Grabber Lime is one of two new feature colors available across the Mustang lineup for 2020; Twister Orange is the other. In addition, new Iconic Silver and Red Hot Metallic will freshen up the new Mustang palette, including for Shelby GT350 and Shelby GT500 models.
“These bright, vibrant retro colors are trending in design – in home furnishings, sportswear and even appliances,” said Whalen. “Aspirational and confident, they are fun, youthful colors that make a statement of how you want the world to see you and who you want to be. And your car is an extension of that.”
