[attachmentid=15255][attachmentid=15256][attachmentid=15257][attachmentid=15258]... and I'm going to kill a lil curiousity.. and get me a better idea on if I can actually afford it.

I'm still planning on waiting until the 06 model (I like the fanblade rims.. that and I'm currently broke :P )

What do you think of it?

Personally.. I've never been a fan of red cars. But Redifre just looks so good with the clean lines on the body.

Nice stripes. Good that its not the "Ford" stripes. Too bad that one has IUP-Lite in it.

Nothing wrong waiting for the '06 if it'll put you in a better position financially.

I think it looks great with the silver stripes.

Looks killer Amy! I've been thinking of getting a windveil stang when I pay off my car next year, but after seeing those pix, I might consider another redfire pony.

I kinda like the IUP light. I don't like that it doesn't have the MyColor option though when you get that option.

They're actually a dark grey color... close to Mineral grey looking, so you can get an idea.

The pics were taken with my camera phone on a very cloudy day, so the colors look a lil off.

Redfire is seriously drool worthy. :worship: If I end up with one.. I'll for sure have to watch the lead foot. Bad enough I get tickets with my green 6'er haha

Hey, that's the dealership I go to in Woodhaven, Michigan 2 miles from the factory. Hmm, I don't see that mine has arrived yet from these photos.

Actually I like it. And since I have a Redfire GT on order and I was planning on adding stripes I thank you for the photos! Very cool!

Yea... we usually deal with Southgate Ford. They have a Mineral Grey GT I was eyeing last night. Drove up to Gorno and spotted this one. The price tag is a bit steep (thank god I get A plan )

Gorno has a couple V6's, a couple Saleens, and behind the used car building a Redfire GT vert.

There's also a couple Saleen Focus's. HOLY UGLY!! And expensive... $27,xxx

Funny thing is.. there are NONE at Superior Ford, which, you know is right across the street from AAI. But there are TONS of stangs in AAI's holding lots.

Be patient... it's probably sitting there. Too bad you can order and pick up straight from the factory any more

Do you have a regular camera you can take some better pictures of the car with to show me the stripes? I would appreciate it. Scott.

Ya....that'd be cool if you could drive it straight from the factory like a Corvette.

So you're broke and ur going to buy a car? I like the stripes but I think a silver as opposed to gray would look better.

Yeah, I saw that Mineral Gray GT at Southgate, it's been there at least 2 weeks. It's a GT, but cloth and neither IUP, I think it'll be there awhile.

That's a sight a "Scarlet and Gray" car in "Wolverine" country...go BUCKS!

If your not a Ohio State or U. of Michigan fan you probably wouldn't understand......but I'm surprised that car hasn't been torched yet and the guy who ordered it fired!

You may now resume your regularly scheduled topic
