maybe its just me ... but if this is the production version of the car ... where are the reverse lights???

This version of the cars is just perfect though ... I can't wait to order mine and finally be back behind the wheel of a mustang ...

From what I understand, the center part switches from red to white.

We still haven't seen a lot in regards to the '13. Give it time, and all the features will be known. Hopefully they'll have a lot of cars on the floor at NAIAS in Jan. and we'll be able to learn a lot more there.

Some video footage from LA by a Dutch car magazine. GT500 and Boss at 1:30.

The last memo I have from Ford on the topic is dated Nov 18th and that still showed 2013 Job 1 as 2/27/12.

However, the memo from Nov 21st that I read that showed 2012 orders being accepted until 1/12/12 (instead of 12/23/11 as previously communicated) doesn't give Job Last and Job 1 info, so it'll be next week before I can check on that via the other memo source.

That was my initial thought, too, but perhaps suppliers aren't completely ready yet due to the Japanese tsunami aftermath and recent flooding in Thailand which have disrupted supplies for many vendors here and abroad.

To each their own. If your idea of a nice front end is the Shelby GT350 in your avatar, I can see why you aren't in love with the 2013

Went to the SF auto show expecting to see the 2013 Mustang, but nope

They did have the new Escape and Taurus though. Also had new Lincolns so I'm kinda confused why they couldn't have brought at least one Mustang. I fixed the booth gal's iPhone too haha

Is it me, or did they also change the GT fogs to a more clear look to finally match the HIDs? I just noticed this on the 13s but I could have just missed it. This is new right?
