Thumbs up

Again, going through the pics, I notice alot of spoiler deletes.

Also, it would be nice if the rear diffuser area on the GT is just a snap in and can be changed out with the GT500 diffuser. I'd LOVE to have the Quad exhaust setup from the GT500 on my GT.

Just his preference man, I don't think he has beef with spoilers. I love recaros, if I saw a lot of cars with recaros is be happy too. Doesn't mean I hate stock seats...

I loved it when I saw it in the commercial, after seeing it up close I have mixed feelings. With all that being said, it does draw your attention from a mile away and will definitely turn heads.
Thanks for the heads up and pics. I'm pretty nervous about the color but there really isn't any other color I want. I had hoped for a yellow, but as its only on the boss I am SOL. Here's hoping its magical when they come in.

This one had the spoiler delete, it looks great without it.

That was at the Spring Break Shootout in Bradenton right? Did you enter the contest to win a 2013 GT?

I hope they run out of some color mid-model-year and substitute it with SBY

Wow, they park those cars in an open lot that close to the public? Looks like apartments right across the street...

I don't think you can put too much faith in those early, pre-production pix either. That white car could be a GT with the pedestal spoiler and side scoop accessory pkg since it has the Brembo's on it that you can't get with the GT/CS...

Here's a clear shot of the rear end from the OP's flickr page;

http://www.flickr.com/photos/7622302...ream/lightbox/

I also don't see any hood 'ghost stripe' on the '13 GT/CS, just on the lower sides... The Build and Price shows no hood stripe either, and the Boss style diffuser.
I don't think we can put too much faith in the Build and Price configurator yet ...it also doesn't show the GT/CS standard pedestal spoiler either (at least last time I looked at it). Bugs will be worked out in time.

Good point on the early pre-production pics. I subsequently checked the 2013 ordering guide and it confirms what you say: "Rear "Diffuser-Style" Lower Fascia". Thus, no paint ...plastic trim. Still, I like the back side better with the diffuser style lower fascia than with out it. Good compromise compared to the big "diaper" that's on the 2010-12s.

The 2013 ordering guide also states: "Unique GT/CS Side Stripes, '5.0' fender badge, and Unique Hood Stripes" for the 402A GT/CS pkg. My dealer confirmed this as well when he placed the order. So, again, a bug in the build and price configurator?

Ford Racing does. That car was loaded with just about everything Ford Racing makes to showcase their products.

You may be right. But with the vast majority of the 2013/14s being sold in North America, I'm a bit surprised Ford would put this on all cars. If they were that concerned about international license plate size, I'm glad Ford didn't do a similar treatment on the front bumper! LOL.

The next gen Mustangs (2015 model year?) will be designed for international markets as well. It will be interesting to see how they incorporate a "one-size-fits-all" license plate holder on the back (and front) on the next car.

Love the spoiler delete, how I ordered mine..just curious with the front splitter...is that an upgrade ? I don't think the Boss front splitter is on the 5.0.

After seeing this I am glad I ordered the Pedestal spoiler, the delete just isn't my style.

Such a wide area for the license plate kinda sucks IMO.

Like the new tailight and panel but still prefer the black plastic for the 10-12. The body color makes the car look alot bigger now and awkward.
