Jumped the gun

Well after thinking long and hard(about three days) I decided I don't need a 8 year old cobra with god knows what done to it and decided to get a grabber blue GT. I feel like I got a great deal regardless of the fact that incentives may change next week. The car stickers at $36,240 before incentives It was $32500 out the door was $29744.
Options:
Gt premium
401a Blk/GB
3.73 gears
shaker 1000
security package
comfort package
HIDs
19" premium painted aluminum rims

As for this cars future I'm currently pricing a GT500 spoiler, GT/CS front valence, as well as a FRPP whipple supercharger or maybe a saleen Series VI.5 Supercharger.

Congrats. I have to say you honestly can't go wrong with ANY color on the 2010s/2011s. Grabber was my second choice.. Then after seeing some of the Sterlings, then the Race Red, then the Candy, aaargh!!!

Every thing the kona blue had and more plus this one is grabber blue which I think is the best color.

any one care to photoshop the spoiler on this gt500 matte black? I'd like to get an idea of whether I should do black like on my old mach 1 or paint to match and maybe do black striping?

I was actually thinking of doing the backup cam spoiler painted matte black, so I could see that looking pretty good. Also, I've been playing around with a matte black "surround" on the HID lights to make them look meaner and blend in with the factory matte black grille surround. I'm packing for Vegas right now though, so if no one jumps on this I'll tackle it next Tuesday haha!

Wow, nice. I'm paying that out the door price for a zero option 5.0.

Enjoy your car! I'm not a fan of grabber, but if you like it rock out.
