Oh, wow! They definitely are going to need new stripe combinations.

Are the wheels on the Race Red GT the new standard wheels, or Brembos?

I'm really curious what the new stock wheels are for both the V6 and the GT!

All the great new stuff is killed by that front for me.

Darn, i'd love to have the Track App and those Recaro's in my car.

Might be time to trade but the wife would kill me.

We've discussed this in the retrofit thread. It can be done on an HID equipped 2010-2012, but requires a jumper harness to re-pin to the new headlamp wiring. From what I understand, Ford put some of the '13 parts on the older test cars with some minor reworking.

Have you seen the car in person yet? I was of similar mind, the front end just has way to much going with it. However I saw a GT in person at CES and afterwards I came away thinking a lot worse about the front end.

Totally don't like those 19s on the race red.

I don't care for the GT front much. 2012 looked better I will agree. Looks like a cross between the Shelby and the V6 with the GT fogs thrown in.

If I were looking for a GT I'd probably wait it out now. Wish they had just stuck the 13 rear end in the 12 front. There was nothing wrong with the 12 front.

And the painted rockers do make it look piggier like the Challenger does.

I like the seats and track app not a fan of the wheels or front. Still not sure about the rear as I like some parts of it but don't like others ...

Remember when the '10 was first launched, the front end was pretty controversial (albeit not as much as the rear!). Remember all the "mutton chops" comments. Many seemed to prefer the lower facia from the V6.

That's why the GT/CS facia swap was so popular, I think.


So, come '13, Ford listen, make changes and the masses STILL aren't happy

Well of course when I say there was nothing wrong with the '12 front I am including the GT/CS valance. Those mutton chops are horrible.

Eww. Do not like the new 19" luster nickels. Definitely prefer the 10-12 19" nickels.

don't forget the black rockers... yep in '10 everyone with a '05-'09 complained about how badly they ruined it & now it's the '10-'12 owners turn

No thanks. That wheel style needs to die.
