This brings up several questions.

1. Can we get the California Special airdam as a factory installed accessory on the non-CS GT?

2. If not, presumably you could order the airdam through the parts department and install it later. How much would it cost?

3. If you ordered the airdam from parts, would it come with the foglamps or can you leave them out?

4. If a person added that airdam with the foglamps and left the upper grill alone, could you wire all four fog lamps into the same switch?

I just noticed the seats too, they look nice, but I have only seen a sliver of them. Need to see some more pics to be sure.

Looks like there are already some resonators in-line in the exhaust...could make a muffler delete very attractive

I can tell you I'll be counting down the days until the Chicago Auto Show. I should be walking through the entrance in 931 hours.

Dear Ford, offer a 'Track Appearance Package' that includes:

-GT/CS front & rear bumpers
-carbon interior trim

For about $695 and I'll buy it. Who's with me?

It won't be a Mach 1.

Believe me, I'd be drooling/chomping at the bit/selling my soul to get a 2012 Mustang Mach 1.

Everything points to a new Boss Mustang.

Eh, I like the new 5.0 rear valance better than the CS/GT500 one. But I DO like the interior trim.

Paint all the lower trim pieces body color instead of leaving them black and you've got a deal! I can take or leave the carbon fiber-look interior pieces, though.

I hate how plain it is. I like the sculpted diffuser on the back myself.

Well, the front facia was first seen at SEMA on Ford's "vehical personalization" Mustang. I prefer the black billet grille, too.

Looks much better lowered and with the black grille!

I wish they would offer that paint on the Mustang. I like the new Yellow Blaze, and always love Sterling Gray, but that color with Saddle interior and Glass Roof would have be SOLD.

The Cali Special lower rear facia is the same as the GT500's is it not?

The taillight blackout panel on the '11 GT/CS is a vast improvement over the the clunky looking one available on the '10 GTs. Hopefully this same piece will be available on all '11 GTs.
