bullittman, great looking Mustang. I wouldnt worry about the "old man delete, but I probably would go for the " Young blond option " or the YBUP.

Nice ride. I am getting the spoiler, I have no choice, I am Canadian
I need to see the Sonic blue with the polished rims since that is what I am getting.

I think it looks good as is. The spoiler delete works well on the new car. I'm gonna say it again, the Bullitt wheels look great on that car, better then the SN95's by a long shot.

A few first impressions.....For reference I've owned 94 5.0, 96 first gen Cobra, and 01 Bullitt.

1. Car "Feels" like a much more expensive car, seats (Cloth) BEST in any mustang with the exception of Bullitt,Mach and New Cobra, Radio controls, Shifter, "Right" there within reach, clutch lighter than SN95. Mirrors, although larger more than make up with better visibility. Overall, inside ...car feels like no other Mustang before. (This is a good thing IMHO).

2. Performance. Power comes on smooth and builds like the Cobra....VERY broad and smooth, "Delicious" shift from first to second. If you have listened to the Soundtrack from "Bullitt", they have captured the exhaust note perfectly inside the car, and yet if you are cruising I noticed no "Drone". Shaker 500 has more Bass than Mach 460 but it seems similiar, perhaps less distortion at high volume. Road manners, steering, turn in....in a different league than SN95's. Car does not shake and jar over bumps hardly at all. Love the MyColor! Seat belt retract actually works too! Side windows do help rear vision. I will put a tri-ax in because while the throw is shorter it stills has that "Sloppy" feeling , probably from the noise isolators. Shifting is noticeably smoother and better coordinated with the clutch.....Non standard drivers will find this car real easy to get used to.

So far nothing negative to report at all, of course I've only driven 30 miles or so. I'll put some pics up later on the Black cloth interior :worship:

Well, even if they didn't I regard them as the nicest styling element on the car, bar none. THis is just an added bonus!
