Well, I do not know you very well...But, like everyone else, FINALLY, what took so long???

Just kidding. My wait was 17 weeks I believe. I thought the ERL was my girlfriend. We talked all the time...Those were the longest days of my life. But, worth every day waiting...

Contragratulations...

Thanks again everyone.

Undecided at this point and even if I had decided, as Boomer pointed out, I would just change my mind 1000 times.

If I had to pick right now, I'd go with the CDC chrome billet (see avatar). But I'm waiting to see what this new Shelby GT replacement grille will look like (there's a piece coming out that will turn the overlay into a replacement grille). I like the Cervini but have heard folks say that the bars bend/get damaged easily.

If you all haven't already seen this thread, you can compare them for yourself here

Sweet ride.

I saw a silver Mustang GT w/spoiler delete and it looks great from the back -- as good as Lorena Hererra from behind.

I sat in GTs w/standard interior & premier trim interior; the premier trim interior felt noticeably more comfortable.

The black/dove PTP color accent combo is a bit confusing. The black/red combo means black interior environment w/red seats & door inserts. Does the black/dove combo mean black interior w/dove seats & door inserts or the other way around?

Anyways, great choice of options.

Wow Mark I think you should have opened with "4 score and eighty years ago I cam to TMS..." Seriously though congrads. Think of all the hours of sleep you are going to miss out now between now and then.

It has black seats/carpet/door inserts/dash board top/arm rest. The doors and dash (below the applique) are grey/dove.
Here's some pictures. http://forums.bradbarnett.net/showpo...12&postcount=4
Except for the automatic transmission, mine will look just like this interior (including the woven charcoal dash applique)

The only mods I bought so far is the "Powered by Ford" badges. But I'm debating whether I'm actually going to use them.
First mods will most likely be some blue rocker stripes and some color matching mirror covers.

That is one of the nicest interior combos I've seen for these cars.
