Looking to trade up on my '11 GT to a '13. Im torn between the GT with Brembo or the CS. Like the fog less look on the CS more than the GT. I would like to get Red Candy again but only can get it on GT.
If i go CS what color is best to accent all the features such as rear diffusor, painted hood vents, stripes, ect?

 

I wrestled with the same decision. I picked the cs because other the wheels I leaned more towards the cs on all the other content of the package. I ordered a white one though and i have seen examples if how the gt/cs looks in white with both cs and brembo wheels. More then likely I will change the wheels at some point.
If I had to chose a color other then my first choice I would pick black (imagine that huh?) so I guess you have to ask yourself which package has more pros then cons for you.

 

This is the same predicament that I am in! I really like the front and rear of the CS better than the GT. Personally, If I go the CS route, I think it would look good in sterling gray minus the side scoops (and most likely stripes), and add the new base gt500 wheels. I think that the CS would still be a good value because of the other things that come in the package. But, I am trying to decide if I should just get the GT and add the grills, fogs, splitter, and rear diffuser (and maybe ped spoiler). On a side note, does anyone know why the reverse sensor/security is not available on the CS?

 

Here is why I chose CS over Brembo pkg:
#1. It is my daily driver and I want a spare tire not a fix-a-flat kit
#2. In Missouri, we see all kinds of weather, Summer only tires will not do...
#3. I had an 08 GT/CS and got a premium price for it when I sold it

Here is why I chose my color

#1. Black/Gray/Impact Blue will not make the black accents on hood, rear, and front "pop"
#2. Every car in my area is either White or Silver...looking for something different
#3. Wish they had Grabber Blue or SBY...but settled for Race Red.

 

I like the grill better on the CS but I'm not crazy about the stripes, I don't care for the black heat extractors on the hood, and I really hate the CS wheels. If someone stole my 2011 and I had to buy a 2013, I guess I'd get a GT but buy the parts to make the front end look like the CS. I like the big fog lights in the upper grill on the 2010-12 but they don't work for me on the 13's.

 

Rear fascia is different. No reverse sensors in bumper. I like the idea of the sterling grey as well. I'm up in the air on the stripes but I guess I can mull that over once it arrives.
