Will do. This thread will be a journal of all the things that happen with it.
That's a perfect track car right there. No extra fluff if you wanted to use it on a road course. Those Brembos are excellent, even on the street.

I prefer the GT500 rear splitter myself. The body is very nice from the showroom floor, but Ford has plenty of accessories available to make it your own.

Me too. I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who got a VIN and build date quickly. It was taking up to 8 weeks for some to get those.
Like I said, I'm hoping I can get the opportunity to go to the plant and check out the car being built, and meet some of the people behind the car. It would give me one hell of a cool story to tell with the car.

I didn't realize it,but a lot of people actually order their Mustang and wait for them to come in. You have that option with every car I think, but most people can't or won't wait for them to arrive.

Black is the most popular color, so you're not far off base with that.

2011 M3 vs 2011 Mustang GT-Motortrend Roadtest
Steve, I am sure you'll be happy with this article, I was surely impressed.

For the definitive answer, we go to Randy's times: 87.67 seconds in the BMW to 87.76 seconds for the Ford. That's right, the difference between the fastest laps of the M3 and Mustang GT is, literally, less than an eye blink: 0.09 second, to be exact.
Randy's response? "God bless America! Let's hear it for the Mustang. To me, that is a giant win for the Mustang GT because the BMW is such formidable competition."

Someone sent me that last night, and I was very impressed how the GT held its own. Anyone who laughs at what this car can do should go take one for a drive and then re-evaluate their statements. Right now, there isn't a better car, dollar for dollar, in my book.

I hated any of them before 2004. Once they adopted the S197 chassis, things got much better. I'm interested to see what they do for 2014/2015 when the next platform is supposed to be a global car, and have IRS. If they can tune a stick axle to perform well, I'll be interested to see how well the IRS works for them.

Sounds like driver error. The 05+ are very capable and with very little money, can make good power.
