New GT/CS owner!

I just picked up a White GT/CS and really enjoy it! I needed a new daily driver since upgrading my 03 Marauder...



Cheers!

Well I spec'd it out online at Ford's web site and then clicked the button to find the closest dealer. Turns out, of all places, the local one had this exact model! I called my buddy there and we took it for a spin and my my bank is spinning... (LOL)

The Marauder? Yeah, a real big-boy's toy for sure!

Cheers!

Congratulations TMF! I really believe that we CS owners have purchased the finest luxury sport car,(pricewise) for 2007. Keep us updated on your thoughts after putting on a few miles/kilometers.

All smiles all the time with GT/CS

Every day I drive this it just better and better!

Does anyone know the production run limit for the GT/CS and how many were produced for each color? Is it still too soon to find that out?

I know my Marauder is somewhat collectable in that only 11,000 were ever produced. Add to that the 90 Mustang Vert in the 7-Up colors which was a feature car for 90, that too was a limited run.

The only thing that I drive that isn't is the 93 Explorer and there were millions of them! (LOL!)

I'll have to wait till Spring I'm afraid to get all the cars out to a park for some beauty shots.

I'm now looking for rims / tires to see just how wide an 18" wheel I can get on the back and not rub anything. I have to make it look just a little different than everyone elses.


Cheers!

The numbers are going to be around 8800, from what I have read. Don't know how it's broke down in colors.

I'm curious Jonate, what makes the new Mustang more enjoyable?
