awesome shots,

the way the torch cars turns out in that one pic just shows how awesome it would look in comp orange.

We don't have too many good black GT pictures, these are very nice.

What I would love to see is more sonic blue GT pictures, not one has been at a big event yet. It would be nice to see some pictures of that color in the sun.

I also went to see the cars in Indianapolis . They were locked up and not letting anyone sit in them by the time I got there. I talked to two of the Ford people answering questions about the cars and was told that 1.) 18" wheels are coming before the 06MY. Just keep talking to the dealers and they can tell you as soon as they arrive. They are Crager wheels and they make the car look much better in person and 2) The SE version will be a Shelby and the soundproofing on the hood underside has a square indented spot for it to go. Both cars looked ever bit as nice in person as all the pics show it. The fit and finish was excellant on these two. They also has a GT, a 500, and the crossover SUV car/wagon there(can't think of the name right now)

I forgot to say the Shaker hood is coming on the SE version. The soundproofing has the indented spot for that.

Thanks for the update. That's promising news about the 18" wheels and a Shelby SE. I hope its true. When you say the 18's are Crager wheels, does that mean the 18's we have seen in the past are Cragers, or is it an entirely new wheel design from what we saw on the original show cars in January?

All she said was Crager wheels, I asked if they were the ones that Bill Ford showed at the show and she said yes. She was paid to talk about the car but not and engineer that's all I can say. When we were talking about the SE version she confirmed it was a Shelby then immediatly walked to the front and pointed out the spot on the insulation for the shaker hood. Both cars had Pirelli all season tires on them, P-6 I think it was. The Red car was Torch Red and it was Very RED!!! The color in the picture is not what the car looked like. I would love to see competition orange too!

Great find, great pics. Love the black GT pics. I sure hope the 18's coming out are the fanblades we have seen. Hope you are right about them coming out before next model year.
