Hood and fenders are killer....looks like the concept '05 hood..which I always thought should have been at least a GT option! Not a bad Mustang at all, I would drive it.

They usually have some pretty cool cars on the floor their. They had a classic fastback, a heritage Ford GT, and a GT500 last time I was there. Did you get your GT500 from there?

And of course....

GO GATORS

By the way, a few Mustangs are headed out to Gainesville Raceway on Saturday if you want to go out there after the game. Would've PMed you, but I guess you have them disabled.

Loud bark, no bite. It has the 3d front fascia, the CS/GT500 rear fascia, and the Cervinis' duck tail spoiler. All it needs is the Shelby GT's hood scoop to complete the mutt package. Its best feature is the seat covers which are gorgeous.

I do like the fact that it's actually SIGNED and not a sticker (I'm looking at you shelby)

It doesn't appear to be. It's a very thin layer of clear adhesive soft plastic, similar in shape and location as the Shelby GT. I couldn't tell for sure if was signed or if it was done by a printer. Also, I think it has the #17 on the driver's side of the front fascia, a cue taken from Saleen.

Interesting idea, but seems that the design has a few too many styling elements.

I think the PJ is the only production model with original signatures on the dash insert.
Saw a video of Rufus & Steve signing a whole row of inserts on some stands
at the Saleen shop in Irvine.

I like the hood. think that exterior is over done and too "Busy" all side scoops look tacked on. Cosmetic only I'm sure

I think I'm going to go down to my local Ford dealer and tell them that I will put together a Bryan C. Thomas Edition Mustang. Who am I? Nobody special, but every one else gets to pick and choose parts out of a catalog and stamp their name on a 'Stang so why can't I? Hell, maybe I'll sign the dash of my '08 and sell it 20 years from now, haha!

I've seen them at several car shows in the Dallas area... I prefer my special edition I created more! :-)

This thing is pretty ugly. Not to mention the $50k+ price tag on the one I checked out today. Had some interesting features, but I don't like it overall. It does have at least 1 real signature though. And a couple of facsimile autographs.

Let's see... Take a bunch of aftermarket parts, some stickers and tape, throw in a famous racers name and Presto-magico! It's a special addition! Yours for only $50k! But wait...
If you buy one right now we'll glady charge you $10k to 20k for THE SAME CAR!
So com'on down to Ben Dover Ford and we'll treat you right!

Gainesville Ford doesn't have any in the showroom anymore. Now they have a 427 Roush and a Roush Stage 1. I think they must have just became a Roush dealer.
