Thanks, Tony! I sat in on the original satellite conference with Ford when they announced GT/CS to dealers. I took a lot of notes, and my notes from that conference said 2007 only, but it appears I may have been wrong.

Welcome Brian and Jeff to the boards. Brian - I have seen a lot of your posts On Blue Oval. I know you participated in calls with Ford on the GT500 rollout.
I also recall your announcement when you bought the S197 (looking good too).
Mwilson7 - Unless you have credentials that you're not showing, I doubt you will find a better in the know resource on these boards about Ford info then Brian. Just my opinion.

While I don't claim to know everything that happens within Ford's inner sanctum, I try diligently not to post bad info. And when I speculate, I clearly say that I'm speculating so that it is not confused for fact.
I sure like a white GT/CS like yours, so that the stripes & diffuser really stand out!

Hi, Jeff, I guess that really rules out a 2009 model Mustang with a Boss engine, then, as F-150 should get the new engines first. I don't know about you, but I've already got a ton of customers itchin' to get a diesel powered F-150. I think it's slowing down sales on the '08's and that'll only get worse as we get closer to Job 1 for diesels and the public becomes even more aware.

If I didn't get my GT/CS and Bullitt timelines 100% correct, then I apologize. But to say that this info is "completely false" isn't necessarily true as I base the info I post on what Ford has communicated to dealers over the past few years.
Ford isn't well known for providing timely info to dealers, and they often change their plans, so what is thought to be fact-from-Ford at one point in time occassionally turns out not to be.

Brian,
Welcome to this fine website... I too am in the Pacific Northwest just east of Tacoma. I bought my Vista Blue 2008 Mustang GT/CS from Courtesy Ford over in Paulsbo... I bought the car in September and only have a little over 500 miles on her? I really baby this Mustang! We took her for a trip up to Anacortes for Thanksgiving yesterday. What a gorgeous drive. Anyhow, nice to have a "Ford" guy in our area. Thanks for all your insight...

It's always nice to take a scenic road trip in a nice car. Anacortes (via 101?) is always nice! First road trip I took my 07 GT on was to Federation Forest (near Mount Rainier).
I almost bought a Vista Blue GT/CS for myself last year instead of the Alloy Gray GT. I've owned 4 blue Mustangs, so I'm a sucker for most shades of blue. We have a Vista Blue GT/CS Coupe here right now for sale that I see daily. So tempting, but I've already starting modding my 07. What's a guy to do!
