2013 Boss, GT & Shelby at the Toronto Autoshow (CIAS)

Rode up to the Canadian International Autoshow this weekend in Toronto with a bunch of friends. Got to see the new 2013's up close and personal but sadly they were locked. Here are the Mustangs. I will post up the rest of the cars in another thread.

Edit: Here's the other thread with non-Mustangs - 2012 Toronto Autoshow (CIAS)

They lock em because people steal everything that is not locked in. I went to the Phoenix Auto show and was drooling over the '11's and the new Boss that wasn't out yet. I sat in them, handled the shifter to check the action, went and checked the Laguna Seca then went back to the GT and somebody swiped the shift **** in the 2 minutes I was away. By the afternoon of the first day, trim pieces were missing all over the cars. Thieves suck!!! I'm glad I went ahead and got my 12, the 13's are nice, but I like the 11 and 12 styling better.

Yeah some cars were open like more standard production cars but so were Mercedes, BMW's, etc. Just disappointing that I couldn't sit in a 2013 though I'm assuming the interior hasn't changed much from the 12's.

Looks like someone slammed the trunk to hard on that GT.

It does look slightly out of alignment though I've seen many 99, 05 & 10+ that don't have perfectly aligned hood, trunk or doors

I wouldn't be too worried about it, Ford uses promo cars for shows, the production cars will have a much better fit and finish.

I was wanting a race red GT500, but the more I see DIB, the more I like DIB. That DIB sure does look rich.

Those stripes on that Boss look like they are reflective. I think I like those stripes if they are. I would like a dark grey set that reflect at night. Might be kind if cool!

Very nice shots. Good composition and probably a better quality camera. I'm still using a point and shoot. Thanks for your addition to the thread

I'd like to see some of your other shots from the show if you get a chance to upload and post them. Especially the NSX (if it was there when you were, it wasn't for us), McLaren and One-77.

Is the Yellow Boss an LS. I don't see the badging on the filler cap indicating LS and the splitter doesn't look like the LS but the wheels do. Are these the wheels for the standard Boss or will they get the black wheels carried over from the 2012? I prefer these wheels pictured on the Yellow car.
