Those Eagle G:2's are really something else when they have some "heat" in them. Fantastic tire........

I apologize for being repetitive about this, but your car looks absolutely amazing.

The color combination I wanted was black w/ blue stripes but they did not offer that combo for 2013. I tried like hell to get the car special ordered that way anyhow but Ford just wouldn't do it. We ended up with white w/ blue stripes. A good second choice but it will always be my "second choice." Curse you Ford!

Ford will NEVER do a special order when it comes to color or stripes. The only way, only way to get a special color is to go fleet and order I believe 5 cars at one time by one person. Then the car can be painted any color that Ford offers. That is how you see alot of company cars in colors they don't usually come in.

I see, order 5, get a customer color, take delivery of 1 and then cancel the order for the other 4.

I don't blame you. It's still my favorite combo too!

Black and blue is cool, but owning a black one for as long as I did, got me sick of black.

When I first started looking to order my 13 I wasn't sure that I would be able to get an allocation. I found a triple black at a dealer and was going to have the stripes removed and just have Grabber Blue stripes painted on. It would have looked amazing, but black is so hard to take care of. But, I got my allocation and it's being built next week!

I haven't been on here in a few months... Thanks fellas! I own(ed) several black vehicles, including an '07 GT, which is on this site somewhere... It's definitely a high-maintenance color, but when clean there is nothing nicer.

Here it is ('07 GT): https://themustangsource.com/f708/07...photos-440380/

This one was easier to maintain, but a little too blingy for my taste now ('08 GT500): https://themustangsource.com/f727/gt500-pics-481874/

I just realized that the car will be a year old tomorrow (1/28/13). It has been hibernating the past three months. I can’t wait until the weather improves! This year's mods? Maybe a TVS… or not

I haven’t done anything to the Stang in a while. Actually, it’s been sitting in the garage since October.

Time to dust’er off and have some fun. Latest mod- Cervini Tinted Taillights. I didn’t want anything dark, just sometime to tone down those 4 white back-up lenses. The light output is really unaffected, which is good.

Looks fantastic. Where did you get them, and how was the application process?
