I got my Gt today and I will wash it tomorrow (rained today, all dirty) and take some pictures. Not sure how to put them up here. I have to say, I was a little apprehensive about the colour combo, but after seeing it in person there is no question that it looks killer.

I have to say the tranny is pretty sad, it clunks like my dads old Chevy S15. I don't mind for now, shifts nice and the ride is firm but still smooth. I will wait to see over the next year or so what comes of the tranny slop issues.

I will post some pictures soon, of Ford's best car the have made for a long time!!!

The transmission "clunks"? I didn't notice this when I test drove a Mustang GT after ordering one. It was actually a very smooth shifting transmission to me.

1st and 2nd gear at low RPM (1500-2000) on and off the gas.

Hmm, like I said, was a pretty nice shifting experience for me. I remember that test drive well . Makes me want that Pony even more when I daydream about it.

So, where are the pics? Just kidding. I ordered a mineral grey with the charcoal leather interior. I debated on getting the accent package but opted not to. Would love to see how that looks with the grey.

Scroll down on the main page to the testing and help thread. You may have to upload your photos to a web albulm to format them. I have a post there on what worked for me.

Drivetrain slop is a Ford trademark.

Can't wait to see pictures -- mineral grey with red interior is what I had on order... .

I also have a mineral gray, IUP with the red seats, Your are right, it rocks! I can't drive this car without getting comments. I ordered mine in the summer, and was worried about the color combo. BTW I have not noticed any slop or clunks in the tranny (stick), it shifts MUCH better than my '01 Bullit (which also had a Tremic 5 speed). Mine now has about 500 miles (delivered October 20th).


Sorry guys, no digital camera, so no pics.
