Our customer dropped off the car at our shop in this condition. This GT will receive a very unique paint job, custom interior, suspension, wheels/tires, and power upgrades of the boosted variety. I unfortunately can not say any more about the project at this time. I did think it will be a neat opportunity to post some pictures of a brand new car in a completely deconstructed state.

I wish I could afford to do the same. I just ordered the GT Premium vert in Black exterior. I am upset Ford won't allow me to order it in Candy Apple Red. I love the metallic red and am not a fan of Tomatoe Red. I mean Race Red. I am sold and will not budge with the Brick Red Cashmere interior. Unfortunately ford will not allow the metallic red with the brick red cashmere interior. I wonder how much a complete paint job would cost. I am certain a lot for the entire car to be painted so I could never see any hints that it was once another color. So I will suffice with Black. Wish I knew a dealer that would have ordered me a metallic red car and swapped out the brick red cashmere from another vehicle.

IMHO, Black w/Red interior is classic. The black being a challenge to keep clean, but beautiful.

There is a set of the red w/cashmire seats for sell at an ebay store site for $1,500. Order the red candy exterior and then buy the seats. I don't know about the red insert door panels being for sell.

I would still need the door inserts as well as the steering wheel. I haven't seen the brick red in person. However I had an 06 with fire red metallic with the red leather interior. I love it! I will miss it.
Since I have already ordered, no turning back. But this is a great idea. And I would have gladly paid a few k extra!

This new car will receive a somewhat similar paint job. I can't reveal who the customer is, but I can guarantee that everyone of you has heard of the customer. I will be able to disclose everything about the build in early August.

That paint job was ridiculous in person. I don't even think my camera picked it up right. Can't wait for this year's show.

They offered it for 2010. I cancelled my 2010 order when I heard the 5.0 was coming. I too was forced to accept Race Red if I wanted Red Brick Interior. IMHO if I want "horrible" I should be able to get it. I must admit the Race Red has grown on me.

It will be somewhat similar to our Red chrome '12 GT. It will not be as extreme as our '12 when it comes to the engine, suspension, and roll cage. It will be a nice compromise for drivability. One thing is for sure, the paint job on the 2013 car will be more eye catching than our red chrome car.
