sorry, no stripes. I AM thinking about doing a flat black hood and decklid. But we'll see.

yeah i am soo super happy with it. The only thing is i NEED to find a good leather care system, you can already see a few lines on it. I am just way too **** i guess.

a lot of people questioned my color combo, but everyone that has seen it completely 180'ed and love it. ALSO i think the GT looks soo cool without a spoiler. I guess because there are fewer without spoilers than with. And just wait till the exhaust is on, its going to be AWESOME.

and NO i am not putting a ducktail on it. no spoiler is the proper spoiler for me. but there will be some cool stuff on the outside of the car. you'll see.

I told them the day before to not put it on, then i show up for delvery and look whats there!!. so i pulled into my driveway at home and immediately wakled to the back of the car and peeled it off. still need to get the glue off but that wont be hard. At least they listened to me when i said DO NOT DRILL THE FRONT BUMPER

OMG, how did I miss that? Dealers....

Are those the 64W's on there? They look a little non-shiny...

Congratulations! I really like the spoiler delete, I think this is the first White one Ive seen like that. The red is awesome, too! Love it! Great choice. Glad to see you're enjoying your new car just like I am mine.

Walt,
Sure looks like you've got my first cousin there. I've got the 07 VERT triple black, IUP, comfort pkg, 5-speed, 3.55 LSR, Charcoal panel, Side airbags, 17" machined wheels, Active Theft, Locking lugs. 'bout the only difference is the spoiler delete, premiew trim pkg, sirius, exhaust tips (I plan on Flowmasters first mod), and the soft boot. Great luck with yours. Found out today mine was serialized today. Hoping for fast but good work from Ford from here out.

well mine is the standard exhaust. I am also ditching it for spintechs. clips to be posted as soon as i can. i also only have the 3.31 gears. But in normal driving around town and during break in i am already up around 19 mpg. so i think i am in good shape.

man the wait is a bummer. hopefully you'll get it soon. I cant believe how much people like the white/red, i am very impressed myself.

Joe - let us know what you choose for your leather care system.

I'm searching for something myself, and I've been told Mothers - NO; Zaino - YES.

Any thoughts? Anyone else? Apply on steering wheel?

Thanks.

Joe - thanks for the reply, but frankly I'm confused.

When you suggest you purchased Maquires and it looks great -- does this mean that you applied Maquires leather conditioner to your seats? Or is it a cleaner?

I looked at the Leatherique website also. Why do you want to use this product? Is it the only thing you intend to use on your seats?

Sorry to sound like a novice. I'm just trying to figure it out. Thanks.
