Between that hood, the lack of a power passenger seat, and a relatively high door sill, any passenger under 5'2" or so can't see outside very well.

It was pretty funny when I rented one in Boston and took my 80 y.o. mom for a ride. She couldn't see where we were.

If it weren't for the power passenger seat, my wife probably wouldn't ride in my GT.

For a Mustang owner you don't seem too well informed on some of the various models that are being made. Not trying to disrespect you but the Shelby GT-H is yesterday's news.

The good thing is that with the passenger seat the way it is, and the instrument cluster so deep - the passenger also can't see the speedometer.

Also, before we beat up the poster too bad, let's remember that the GT-H is an extremely limited production model. I'm guessing less than the GT500. Therefore, since they're pretty uncommon, and not in the Ford brochures it's likely for someone to miss the news headline. Plus, with TMS so segregated, I rarely check up on the GT-H section of the forum.

I saw a guy with a black GT made to look like a GT-H that had GT on the side and the lower rocker stripe had GT-M, i don't know what that one means.

Probably Mustang or his name began with an M.

When I bought my GT/CS two weeks ago, they had a "fake" Shelby GT on the showroom floor. $48K, automatic trans, and only 300hp. They said they sell about 2-3 a month. How, I have no idea...

I agree I don't have a phd in Stangology, just love the way they looked up to early 70's and now since 05. I could care less how many types are out there, I loved the look of the CS ever since I laid eyes on one and that's why I got it. IMO, that GT-H doesn't appeal to me. That golden stripe looks pimped and it appears that it has the same engine of a GT and for a Shelby...not impressed. Someone please correct me if the engine of the GT-H is not the same as the GT...
Thanks for pointing out my lack of stang-literacy...
