The only 2013 Mustang there is the GT500 in white with black stripes. Car is locked but hood is up.
They have a grabber blue 2012 5.0, a Kona V6, and a race red V6 I think. When I saw they were 2012s I didn't pay much attention to them.
Then over by the Nissans they had a few leftover Fords I guess and that's where they had a 2012 Performance white Boss 302.

Going to the book depository tomorrow because my sophomore in high school daughter had no idea who JFK was.

Anyway...
Saw lots of cars. Saw the ZL1 and it looks like garbage. Saw a 2012 SS that had brake caliper weights on it

Saw lots of hot car models there. OMG. You'd be in heaven Al.

In the Shelby pic one of the Ford guys dropped his iPhone down the hole where the hood latch is. It fell between the AC condenser and the SC heat exchanger and nobody could reach it. And there a lot of plastic plates under the car that make that area impossible to get to without removing them. So he's kind of screwed.

There's dudes that do 250+ on motorcycles!

Speaking of Austin I drove by the F1 track on the south side of Austin on the way up here...

You can see where the press boxes and grand stand will be. Pretty cool.

I was thoroughly disappointed in Fords effort around Mustang! I can live with not having a LS at the show but to only have MY12 Stangs not good. Really wanted to get a look at a few of the new colors.

Now I almost don't want to go. :/
My excitement was around getting to lay my eyes on the '13 GT...
Well, I have free tickets, do might as well just make the best of it.
