Michael,
I am impressed, and glad to see great pics of a black car as that is the color I am looking for.
Did I read correctly, you got rid of your 2010 for a 2011 and you felt there was that much of a difference in the interior? The added power is a no brainer, but intersting to read your thoughts on the difference within one model year. Guess the sound deading material they added really does make a difference.
As someone that has been on the fence with a get it now 2010 or a wait till later 2011, you have given me hope!
thanks...

Congrats on your car! Looks very sharp.
I completely understand. Awesome does that to me every day. I smile every time I see her. I can't help it. 
I'm about to leave Doug Stanley Ford with my new 2011 Mustang GT 5.0. Yeah, there was no way I could wipe that smile off my face. I'm almost 50 and this car made me feel 16 all over again. That's a great feeling, let me tell ya.

LOL ...reasonable expectation given my username and avatar. I love Grabber Blue and have a sentimental preference for the color. But I also like black and, for some reason (maybe it's because of the black plastic trim moulding on the bottom of the car or the lines of the car), it looks especially good to my eyes on the 2010/11 Mustangs.
@orange3.9stang: Thanks ...hope yours gets delivered soon!!

Mine DID come in ... last Friday night; it was there when the dealership opened Saturday morning. Interestingly, the owner e-mailed me imediately but I was not home !! I was out and on my way home (around 10:30) I decided to drop by the dealership as I have done numerous times over the last few weeks.
It was the surprise of my life when the owner said "sent you an e-mail at 9 AM, figured you'd be here at about 9:15" ... I said "what do you mean ??" ... and he said "It's here, come take a look." They had finished the inspection but all their detailers had the day off, so I could have it with 4 weeks of dust & dirt on it (all the stickers & plastic still in place, basically as it rolled off the truck) or wait till Monday.
Went back at noon and did all the paper work, took it home, and cleaned and detailed it myself.
