13 Grabber Blue GT

Just got the email from Jeff (05fordgt) that my '13 GB GT has arrived, and what a suprise! I wasnt expecting it for another week or two, my eta was April 14th. This will be my third mustang, I had a mineral gray 05 GT and a 2010 grabber blue GT500 (which I bought from Jeff). I have a few upgrades she will be getting when I pick her up next week, I will post more pics then.

Thanks, and no I sold it awhile back unfortunatly. I should of had my head examined lol. I loved having the gt500 and I missed having a mustang and modding them that I figured it was time to get back into the saddle.

Between Jeff and my schedule next monday is looking like the first day I can get out to pick her up hopefully. I can live with a few more days, this wait was nothing like the last one for me.

If I wasn't off this weekend, we could do the delivery this weekend. But between going to New York for the Auto Show on Friday (I look at it as research for work) and going house hunting on Saturday, I can't come in to deliver the car. And he's right. The GT500 delivery delay was BRUTAL to say the least!!! Next week is perfect.

zeindog, nice car......looks great!!!

I'm pretty sure I will be going with Grabber Blue also. It looks really good without the spoiler too (definitely going to delete it myself)....I just like to clean "naked" look better
If you are able to, can you post some more photos???
I'm happy for you....also nice it was early. Hope you enjoy your Easter weekend with it.

Congrats man! She's a beauty.

Curious, why didn't you get another Shelby instead of the 5.0?

Thanks! I didnt go with a shelby again because I love to modify and customize my vehicles. The shelby was pretty much done from the factory in my opinion, with the GT I pretty much have a blank slate to make it my own.

I agree, and it's one of the reasons I did go with the GT500. Different strokes, but if I were going to mod my car, I'd go with something other than the GT500 because as you said, it's 99% perfect off the lot. It's engineered to work with every piece of equipment on it, it has the engineering prowess of Ford and SVT behind it, something even this engineer can't boast. That said, I know the joy that comes from building something of my own, so I can understand the desire to mod cars.
