Is it possible to order a new 2012?

Probably a stupid question, but is there any way to still custom order a 2012 GT?

I know one of the dealers close by had a new 12 GT a month ago... go to your local ford dealer and have them search for you...

Why would you want a 12 over a 13

Discounts and rebates probably. I like the new tail end but I dont prefer the new front
though.

Yeah, I'm still not sold on the new design of the 13's. It's growing on me, but I still think the 10-12 styling is nicer.

No way. I've owned a 12 and a 13 and the 13 is a better car all around. Better rear end, better front end, and nice new features in the cluster with track apps and such. I thought I didn't care for the 13 front end over the 12 until I received mine.

I'm with you on that last line...

Well, styling is entirely subjective. I loved the front of '13 right away, but didn't and still don't like the rear. New electronics may be 'cool' and styling updated a bit, but that certainly doesn't diminish the '11 or '12.

Stirring the stew....

Seriously I'd take a spanking new 12 over the 13. The 13's biggest asset is those rear tail lights and its biggest turn off is the non creative cobraish front end and the black license plate surround. I still can't believe that black plastic piece was integrated into the rear bumper. it only draws more attention to the license plate. Why???

It's like a picture frame for when the officer pulls you over. License tags are ugly. Why accentuate them?

Lastly, Painted rockers are cool but not painted valences. Even Saleen painted the lower valence black before all this thermal plastic came out. I could get rich designing a unique black valance for the 13s.

But that is just your opinion...everyone has different taste. Personally I hate the 2013 catfish style front end but love the rear end and the new features.

Yeah, I pretty much agree with all of this.
