Starting in 2000, this color was only offered in the Spring and was a special paint that was offered at no extra charge. Gold was the only color that was close to this shade during the 2000 year, but starting in 2001 it became offered for the entire year.

SCREAMING YELLOW
This shade blended into 2 different body styles of the Mustang from the SN95 to the S197. Most colors tended to stick to one specific generation of Mustang, but this was a great decision by Ford to blend two generations because the lovers of the 2004 screaming yellow color were more likely to buy a 2005 or 2006 because the change wasn’t as drastic. Having a resemblance to Chrome Yellow, it provided a fresh new shade that will be admired by enthusiasts for generations!
