lol. I'm just trying to mess with Dragstart. That's the combo he ordered.

The Manny thing is a real possibility, though. Get a new guy or just a guy in a new part of the line who starts assembling something incorrectly...that's quite believable.

I'm not trying to give you a hard time but what would the color have to do with it? Had you said GT's with manual transmissions, 3.73, and Brembos I'd think there maybe something to it. Or does Race Red GT's get different transmissions and gears when they are built with Brembo brakes?

Big Poppa -- read my post immediately above yours. You probably didn't see it. I was just trying to mess with dragstart.

Okay, here's my guess -- Some wheel/tire combo isn't clearing the revised suspension parts.

I'd like think that wouldn't even make it past CAD. Its probably a tuning problem if anything. Even that very first sneak-peak we got (remember the one where they claimed to have their pre-production 2011 GT keeping up with a '08 M3?) they said they were there tuning the suspension.

I'm sorry, Normally I wouldn't have replied. Just got off work and a bad day, fight with the ole lady, it's raining outside, border jam packed with cars 45 min wait to cross, traffic from hell, the cleaners lost 2 pairs of my jeans and told me to come back sunday, and now my car thats not even built yet is broke. What next!

I don't think anyone here knows anything honestly. People love dangling carrots on message board for some reason.

Just a well tuned BS meter. If someone knows something, they'll either shutup or say it. Not the BS that goes on around here at times.
