Good eye! I hope that's a sign of a power antenna and not that they just removed them so people don't poke their eye's out on the showroom floor.

If you lose an eye because you poked it on an antenna then you don't deserve the eye to begin with. Darwin is rolling in his grave.

Someone should jack up a car on cinderblocks at one of these press-previews and steal the wheels. Just act like you belong there and no one will ask...
People actually steal shift ***** and antennas? WTF!

They take everything off. They usually even take the volume control ***** off. Anything that's easily removed. People steal everything these days, especially at the auto shows, just to say they have it.
People touch EVERYTHING in these cars. I'll be waiting to sit in one and people are finger &:$/"$(/ the whole car. It drives me nuts. Loo

Ha, I got you guys beat.
This was long ago, but at the CAS, I saw a guy trying to open a Ford Areostar rear window all the way. No big deal, except they were designed to no open all the way so kids couldn't fall out and such.
Anyway, he really cranked on it and cranked (like open and closing hard a dozen times) until he broke the stops in the window and the whole thing slid back incredibly loose. Muttered something about American quality and walked away.

Mustangs sleeping
It looks like the cars have been moved quite a bit since the earlier pics were taken. 12 total Mustangs at the Ford display this year. One 1993 Cobra R, four 2012s, and seven 2013s. Three 2013 Boss 302. Both colors for the LS present, plus Gotta Have It Green. This is the first year you could actually get into a GT500 at the Chicago Auto Show, and it is a 2013 at that. Not even in production yet.
