I waited 3 months for my '06 Coupe. The dealer told me I would have to wait until the first part of November. 2 weeks ago, (August 24th) he said they still did not have a build date. I went to a different dealer, they had 3 '06 in stock and about 10 '05 GTs. I ended up getting an '05 convertible for $4,000 under sticker. 2 days after I bought it, the first dealer told me my coupe would be in September 24. He was so excited I didn't have the heart to tell him.

What was irritating was, the first dealer assumed they had the car sold to me and didn't even bother looking for one that was available. I had a hard time going with the '05, but I am glad to get the convertible for not to much more than the coupe.

I have been thinking about doing that hood but going to wait a little longer to see what else might hit the market. Nice car Redfire 05Gt! Enjoy!

I finally got my 06 GT Stang on Labor Day weekend. I was not sure if I would like the fanblades but IMO they are really good looking for stock wheels. My borther-in-law and I worked on the car the same weekend and installed some new axle-back MagnaFlows, CDC ducktail and classic lettering on the trunk lid for round 1 of mods. I've never owned a Stang before but I'm really loving this car! Oh yeah, I gave her a Zaino bath too.

I think the reason you see a lot of black cars is that Ford didn't really offer any dark colors other than black. Sonic/Vista Blue & Redfire being the closest. I think the car looks really cool in deep & dark colors.

I would rather of had a Dark highland green, or black jade or Dark green Satin (color of my 99) or even areally dark blue. Vista blue is a step in the right direction.

Harrier, how about some more pics with the GT-R wheels. Those look great, I'd just like to see some different angles.
Thanks.
