Hey Warp, what color did you order?

Agree with you about orange stripes... I might remove the white stripes on my 2011 Grabber Blue (once I get it) and paint two nice orange stripes with black trimming.

They have video with exhaust sounds links! I can't see them though cause I'm at work...


Ricky,

I have Sterling Gray on order, though I am "thinking" about G.B and some fancy paint work...

The sound of exhaust when they start the engine on the silver car is quite impressive...!

Something along these lines

Although I'd love to see a "wrap around" oragne look like the original GT40

Sounds like my 2010 with more blower whine.

Yeah, that's the original Gulf Blue for the GT 40, I would like more the new McLaren scheme (again not quite Grabber Blue)

For anyone who missed it, the Ford media site now says: "A replay of the 2011 Ford Shelby GT500 Reveal/SVT Plans event from Monday, February 8, 2010 featuring Derrick Kuzak and top performance vehicle experts will be available later this afternoon."

For anyone who would rather read a list of what's new instead of watching a half hour video, I posted a list of the highlights on my website. You can see it here: http://wp.me/pMITI-2v

Thank you kindly. I'm still working on adding content, but overall, I'm pretty happy with it. My goal is for it be become a sort of one-stop reference site for Mustang stuff. As you can see, I have tons of links, to this site and others, with lots more to come. I'm not looking to compete with anyone, just be a source of information. It's very hard to resist pimping it on here and other sites too. Lol.

Very nice. Says the 2011 is 120lbs lighter than the 2010. What exactlywas the 2010 curb weight?

anybody have any idea on how much weight the glass roof will add? I think that would be a sweet option.
