I'm not too worried about that, if it needs paint, I'll take it to the dealer. I'm most likely going to wait til the Job 2 2011's hit the dealers anyway, as they have a habit of adding small tweaks then.

I believe after the mid-July shutdown. So we wouldn't see them until August/Sept. on lots. I think it'll be around the same time the V6 performance pack will be coming out.

Wouldn't July be the start of Job 1 in the new model year?

Oh yeah, duh. My 08 is a job 2 car and it was built in February. I was thinking on that timeframe.

That fascia and hood should be a factory option, along with the seats. Would make a formidable track machine!!

That would be sweet if you could get aftermarket hoods and fascias installed at the factory.

But it would cost Ford a fortune lol

Finally it looks like they made the tri-bar bigger I thought it was to small on the previous mustangs.

The CS appears to have an additional piece that covers the normal black sparkle grille surround and is painted body colour.I WOULD LIKE TO GET THE PART NUMBER.

Better seats... oh, man. Makes me glad mine'll be Job 2. Ford keeps adding options that I actually want.

This is a never ending thing, quest for more, better. First thing we'll hear after the front fascia and seats will be more power for the 2012 GT's. Here we go again.

HAHA! I actually pointed this out to Groot!

I am really digging the 2011 Mustang. Ford might have a repeat customer.

That front fascia on the CS just doesn't do it for me, maybe if it was body colored i would think it twice, but i prefer the regular GT front fascia.

Ya, better stuff coming in is a never ending story... I am sticking to Job 1 for my 2011 stang... want to enjoy it ASAP in the spring !!

In my area of Canada , we can only use our summer cars for 7 months, and then store it for winter !!
