In the automotive world, trends evolve, and preferences shift. Once revered for its gloss and chrome, the European Union’s ban on chrome plating signifies a changing landscape. Car owners now favor matte finishes, a shift reflected in the 2024 Mustang coupe’s new offering.
Developed by PPG, a satin-like finish replaces traditional glossy paint, providing durability against various elements including harsh detergents, road salt, and bird droppings. Priced at $5,995 on top of the base paint cost, this finish is becoming increasingly popular.
However, certain limitations apply; opting for the Matte Clear Film eliminates certain features like the Hood Accent Stripe and Painted Racing Stripe. Despite these constraints, the Mustang’s customization options remain extensive, allowing buyers to tailor their vehicles to their preferences.
From wheel design to interior accents, the Mustang embodies versatility, appealing to a wide range of enthusiasts. With the availability of the matte finish commencing on February 27th, customers can expect deliveries to begin in June 2024.
