CS Owners

Curious, what was it about the CS that made you want that over a GT or GT Premium?

The wheels, lower valance with less obvious fogs, door stripe, spoiler, decklid.

The CS just stands out over GT Premium. Get it loaded with navigation and comfort package and you are set!

What he said. I was originally looking at Roush, and Shelbys, but quickly came back to earth when looking at the sticker price. I wanted something a little more unique, and the CS fit the bill and budget.

Cons - cant get the Recarro's or the track package from the factory, if that is important to you. Though you could add most of it later from aftermarket.

I could not be happier, no regrets in my purchase, and I get lots of complements on it.

Especially in white. I love my performance white more each day.

Any website to check on actual production numbers?

I badly wanted a GT/CS for the grilles/fogs/rear valance. They didn't make them in Grabber Blue in 2013. I was disappointed by that fact, and chose to get the GT/CS parts after the fact, with no color restrictions.

Lol I was lusting over grabber blue today as well and stumbled across this.

What really sold me was the blacked out louvers in the hood, looks awesome. Had I gone with a GT Premium, I would have wanted a chin spoiler of some sort and side scoops.
The whole package is extremely tastefully done. The interior is phenomenal, love the dash and the seats.

Would those of you who own a CS consider yourself more of just cruisers? Sucks you can't get Brembo/TP (hence why I ask).

This doesn't make sense to me when the GT/CS has relatively the same power as the premium/track pack. The GT/CS IS a GT Premium...Why would it be considered " just a cruiser?" Put some 3:55's or 3:73's, some brakes, and you're set. Can always add other stuff later. I bought it because it looks different than the premium and a little more unique.

I actually made the mistake of looking at the CS before anything else. Once I saw the car in person, all it's subtle enhancements, amazing interior, and overall unique appeal, I knew I would not be satisfied with a GT premium. Certainly not a base either.

Brakes can be added on later if I choose. I would opt for Stop tech, Baer, or Willwood so I'm fine with not getting the Brembo option. I certainly like the rare CS wheels over the brembo wheels also. Just my opinion. Lol So happy and grateful to have such an amazing car!
