Just signed the papers tonight, picking it up wednesday!

 

My Fav. C/S so far

 

Wow!

Very nice!

Do you have a green and white license plate?

Even if not, I wouldn't let them drill the front bumper for a plate bracket 'cause it looks so good as-is.

If any problems, just tell them you listened to my advice and blame me.

 

I'll post some better pictures on thursday when i can use my digital camera, these are just pics from my blackberry.

I just got your standard everyday Massachusetts license plate, i dunno what im gonna do yet but i got 2 days to think about it!

 

LOVE IT!!!

 

I know i'm dying of anticipation

 

You will LOVE it. Bought my 11 Black GT CS on 1 Jul and picked it up from dealer on 2 Jul...and been enjoying it ever since!!

 

Very nice!

Once you go black, you'll never go back!!


Welcome enjoy your ride...




Oh more pics when you get your baby!

 

How are you liking the seats with the special inserts? They felt a little bit different to me when i drove the CS and then a regular 5.0 with the stripe down the seat. Although that was only by being in the car for like 15 minutes so i didnt want to jump to any conclusions.

 

I moved from an 06 Mustang GT with stone leather interior to this, so it's taking a little getting used to the all black interior (HOT - and averaging 95+ here in Texas atm). As for comfort, I haven't noticed a great difference...I don't stick to them or anything. However, I've not been in this one for more than 20 - 30 minutes or so at a time.

These seats seem to hold my body more comfortably, but then my last seats were 5 years old, so could have just been wear lol. I certainly like the feel of this cockpit better than my 06. With all the sun here, it's nice not to have all the reflective metal I did on the 06 dash front.

I've only cleaned the interior once and the inserts seemed to wipe down fine (I used an all in one disposable cloth for plastic/vinyl/leather - made by Turtle Wax I think). I'm not sure if you are supposed to use anything specific for the carbon fiber inserts...haven't seen any documentation alluding to such.

 

Thats what I was hoping. I need to go out and buy some interior cleaner. The heats been bad up here as well. We've been in the high 80's - low 90's for a few weeks (thats adnormally hot for MA, at least when it stays hot for that long) but ive been in plenty of dark cars with dark interior, but never black

So we'll have to see how that goes over. I won't be driving it full time. My father is using it for his DD but i get to have it whenever hes not at work. So every weekend and weekdays after 6 or somedays he will just take my car so i can enjoy it (yes hes an awesome father) we both pooled our money to buy it together and i get it for myself once i get out of college in 2 years.

 

That looks great! I agree that black looks great on the GT/CS. Mine's white, but my two previous vehicles ('06 300C and '10 F-150) were both black, but I *must* have a clean car and I live in an area with "hard" water. My wife's Suburban, my daughter's Scion Tc. and my son's Ram 2500 are all white and they clean up better (and easier) - no gray-ish random residue spots are visible. Enjoy - the 5.0 is a true joy to drive.

 

Another pic of my GT/CS, black on black, HID, 3.73. Added legal tint and 5.0 badges.

Just went to a dyno yesterday. Heres what i got. First pull was in 5th and the other 3 were in 4th gear.

89 degrees and 15% humidity

Bone stock, probably gonna do magnaflow street series with magnaflow xpipe soon

 

And, I really wonder what a tune would do to those numbers? Are you going to possibly tune it and dyno it again?

 

Im not sure. Maybe ill do an intake and tune eventually but the car has enough power as is (for me at least) and i dont plan on going to the drag strip every weekend or anything.

 

Thats cool... Beautiful car. I am debating between a CS or a GT w/Brembo.

 

I think a lot of people would say get the GT w/Brembo because you can buy the exterior modifications separately from ford but i like the interior, which you cant really swap out for a decent price lol

If you plan on going to the track and whatnot, i would say get the brembo pack. I just like the looks of the CS (interior and exterior). Would i have gotten the brembo with the CS if i could have? Hell yes! but since i dont plan on doing anything special the CS was the better choice for me.

 

Heres some more pics that i promised like.... 2 months ago haha

There pics were taken before I put on the magnaflow comp series so you still see the ugly mufflers in the back
