I want the fuel drain option on my 05.

I'm thinking the "remote fuel dump option" is a great solution for tailgaters.

Nice work n00b! Thanks for joining!
It's my pleasure - this is great forum.

I don't think I can recall being this excited about a car in a while - sending family members on photo reconnaisance. I won't be done with my current lease for a about 2 years, but barring any nasty surprises or problems, the Mustang is what I'd like to have when that lease expires.

That's what's odd. The vert I followed had a very nice stance and color matched side mirrors

Keep in mind, its NOT Dark Shadow Gray,
its MINERAL Gray.

Don't let the pics fool you...definately see this colour in person.

That is what it looks like in the dark...
In light, it looks copper..
Just as a heads up.

I love the way it looks in dark light, but hate in bright light.

These Bullitts look cheap. I wonder what happened to the darker finish?

Brad, seems all the pre-productions that we've seen so far have the lighter finish on it.
Hopefully that will change...

The shadow gray/type finish looks WICKED...not a fan of the silvery finish

If Mineral Grey looks this great, then DSG on this model should look even better. I hope they add it in next year. The rear/side picture of the black car pretty much explains why I would have to think about buying black again.

Boomer,

I bet they don't want to go through the trouble of painting them correctly.

Mineral grey is looking REAL good... once the cars hit the lots I have to check one out in person and see if it will pull me away from Sonic Blue.

Hate to say it, but I think ride height is a little too tall for my liking, looks like Ford has some friends at Eibach that they want to keep busy.

Great pics, I ordered my Mustang in mineral grey, and these pics make me not regret it. It will look more copper in light. I love the color, but these pics don't really show it in it's glory.

Brad,

Surprised you don't remember. When they finally put the bullitt style wheels on the redfire GT in Nashville, they were unpainted. However, Team Mustang individuals stated that the production bullitt wheel would be painted like the one displayed in the Ford tent. I am not surprised the early bullitt wheels were not painted. Why go to the added expense for wheels for test mules.

The picture below of the 05 from the Toronto show on my desktop says otherwise. B)

Let me provide more evidence of what I hope is a perfect ride height for the 05:
