That sirius antenna makes the car look like it has a pimple on its butt! I don't see the point ordering the factory installed unit since you can move the receiver from place to place, doesn't seem like you are getting a very good return on your dollar, especially considering the cost. In my opinion, the sirius option should be FREE to sucker people into paying $13/month for the rest of their life to listen to the radio. Second, what is the point of sirius if the shaker plays MP3s? You can pack HOURS of music on 6 CDs.

I don't understand why Ford can't lower the ride height a little more. I have to drop my 05 GT 3/4 of an inch with the Steeda kit. Looks like the GT500 is going to need an aftermarket as well.

To preserve a reasonable ride for the average consumer. Then, if the enthusiast wants to lower it, they gladly sell you an $1100 upgrade that will void related warranty claims.

Trouble is, it's not "average" customers buying these things, it's performance enthusiasts and weekend racers. So they SHOULD have gotten it right from the start...the way - dare I say it - import manufacturers tend to do.

But hey, it's a small complaint. Overall, the car looks terrific and should strike fear into the hearts of those same import buyers.
