What's with the small rims, 4x4 look, and the V6 spoiler. The KR at the top of the page looked great. This one looks like a cheap knock off.

Well Ford's making it easier for me to convert my V6 into the KR with the same spoiler!

LOL'd at the V6 spoiler! Or is this simply a "rare production variance"?

Wow, uhh yeah. Those wheels and tires are nowhere near as nice as what was on the prototype. Couldn't get Alcoa to make some 18" versions? That's prett disappointing. They dropped the ball in a few spots. I do love the hood though.

nice rear spoiler, tiny rims, super long exhaust tips and 2 inch thick shelby lettering on the rear oh and that 4x4 ride hight is sweet!

Nice bait and switch there LOL

and how much does all that cost?

The KR will be a hot one to get hands on but there is hope. If the past is any indication and the progression of improvements maintain the pattern of tricling down, the KR's performance and cues will likely be part of the next generation GT500.

There has already been trickle down. The Bullitt has the rear end/diff assy from the KR

Ya the hood is awesome for sure.... I've heard the the hood will only be available to KR owners that have damaged it and needs replacing and can prove it along with the vin number!
