Saw my first 2011 GTCS in person today

Well i know we have all heard about the 10/11 rear ends, my opinion is yuk, however the 2011 GTCS rear end is even worse, it looked like it was stuck on with 3m tape, i could grab it and move it like it was barely on, what was Ford thinking.
The grill may have been after market but it was sweet, and the wheels were very nice. I could not get a good look at the interior but it appears the have gotten away from the two-tone.
Overall it was ok, but the rear end ruined the whole think for me. JMHO

p.s. i'll try and take some pics of it later.

I'm with ya' on that. Perhaps an aftermarket company will come up with a solution to that ugly rear end. It's too bad that with the new 5.0L engine, the bad rear end is what they mostly be seeing. Howver, I'm sticking with my 08 GT/CS for now. (I even think the grill on the 05-09 looks better)

How is the GT/CS rear different than the GT rear except for the lower GT500 valance?

Not sure what the 2011 GT500 rear end looks like, this just looks like such an after thought.

I like that new rear end! It saves on rock chips and hides the tar and oil spots. Also, you don't have to stand on your head to wax the bottom of the car
