The Mystic Cobra was named after its special "mystic" paint. Mystic paint contains color-shifting interference pigments, called ChromaFlair® pigments. These pigments were developed and are manufactured by Flex Products, Inc. They allow the paint to show drastic color changes as observer's angle to the car, or the angle of the light hitting the car, changes.
Traditional paints exhibit color by absorbing most of the light, and reflecting only the light within a narrow color band. ChromaFlair® pigments create color by light interference. There is almost no absorption of light at all. This makes the car have a wide variety of colors including emerald green, violet blue, magenta, burgundy, amber, and a dark brown.
The paint was only applied to 1999 of the 7492 SVT Mustang Cobras.
