I Have No Life
thank you... It's just that for my Z, there was no factory option for an oil cooler, and Nissan claimed it wasn't necessary for non-track users. However, regular folks driving it spiritedly were hitting limp mode for oil temps hitting 260 and above... I was seeing constant 240's. So was just wondering for 5.0 if necessary if I don't track. Doesn't sound like it. She runs much cooler too... that's what 8 qts of oil will do I guess... lol

I guess I will be the first to complain about the packaging. So no real guages either. Not worth the additional 4K plus to me. Thanks Ford!

The GT-500 Guide & Price Lists is not up yet. I will keep an eye out for it. Can't help on the Canadian Stuff. Judging by the Info Flow I am seeing I believe the 500 info is a bit behind the Base/ Gt Info I would not be surprized if it's a month out. But that's just my gut feeling.

I wouldn't expect to see the GT500 info until after the new year at the earliest. Maybe after the Detroit show.

"Wheel Image Coming Soon" ... meh
Looks like for standard Boss mustangs you can have any reflective stripe color you want, as long as it's black... Would have been interesting if they offered reflective white stripes.

The one new standard feature that caught my attention is the footrest or dead pedal. Anyone got the scoop on it?

looks like you cant get the pony projector mirrors with the recaros since it's part of the comfort package.
I like that the gt/cs appears that it will have the 5.0 badges as well as the stripes (which I would remove) but I can't get past the wheels!! they are terrible. I do however like the fact that the hood louvers are done in black for a nice contrast on all colors but the black of course.

lol not really (the colors are not really close) i had my heart set on on brick red interior either for a black or sterling grey car but when the redesign was released it is pretty clear the blackout rear panel will not really pop with black so that color dropped to a distant second. considering they have offered sterling with red up to this point i assumed that wouldnt be an issue. but apparently ford thinks it is. i dont really want to compromise on a 40k+ plus purchase.

If you want your car to come sooner than later, have your dealer input the order as Order Type 2 (stock order) vs Order Type 1 (retail order for a customer). Ford will build some stock orders before retail orders initially to make sure there are no bugs in the new components of the cars, so retail orders sit unscheduled for several weeks after the official opening of the order banks while Ford fills the lots with unsold cars. However, some dealers will not special order a car for a customer as Order Type 2 as that car comes out of their allocation. A retail order (Order Type 1) does not come out of allocation and that's how we're supposed to place special orders, but if you don't want your car delayed, see if you can get it ordered as a stock unit.

Sucks when you like a color/combo but because it doesn't fit the cookie cutter of what Ford considers normality they discontinue it.

I successfully ordered several '13 GT Coupes today for our store. The actual orders won't get pulled or scheduled until next month, but I wanted to start getting our orders in early so I could play with the new combinations of equipment & colors. Now we just need pricing to be announced!
