ColoradoStang, can you tell if the "L" shaped section surrounding the rear armrest is a separate piece, or if it's a molded part of the rear panel? I've been wondering if it would be possible to replace it with a dark charcoal piece to match the front door insert.

I think it would make it stand out more!

Again: Sweet ride. I even like the interior/exterior combo.

Justin, I was there when you took delivery of your new GT... It looks awesome. I also love how Phil long kept telling me that they weren't getting any 05's until november... I got in many arguments with them over that one until I was finally proven right. They also have a windveil blue Gt st there prep center . Looks better than I thought it would. But either way congrats on your GT.

I sat in a 05 GT yesterday at a dealer here in the Dallas area. It was black with charcoal leather inside and interier upgrade. IT LOOKS GREAT. Ther is nothing cheap about it. The same dealer also had an 04
G35 coupe. The 05 Mustang GT has a nicer interier. Go compare for yourself. The G35 runs about 35K.

That interior colour looks terrific with the black exterior. Do you have a clearer pic of the whole interior? I've seen good interior shots already but almost every one of them has been of that godawful red colour.

The armrests he's talking about are below the quarter-panel window...I think they're seperate pieces but I never took a close look at 'em...
By the way...that is one wicked color combo

No, though it's still nice to have that view; haven't seen a pic of the back of the console before. I appreciate your checking this out for me.
I'm talking about the red bit in the back by the armrest in the old preproduction photo below. I don't think Ford ever made any cars this way, but if they were thinking about it, it might be a separate piece.

The horse is on the front windshield behind the rearview mirror.....I think its kind of crappy, I usually have the top 7 inches of the front windshield tinted, but it looks like I wont be doing that on the 05 because of the dot-matrix

Thanks again for checking on this!
I wonder why mine aren't dark charcoal as the inside of the doors are accented with this color....
