The 5.0 has arrived!!

Picked up my 2012 5.0 today.

Here's a few quick ones, until I get a chance to take some other ones.

Break in time is over!! (At the least the 100 mile break in, the 1000 mile is quickly approaching.)

Very nice, best color. Only thing I really dislike is the hood scoop. Not a fan of that wing either but I could live with it.

Gave both my mustang and my buddy's 370z a good wash on friday.

Heres a few post wash before we headed on down to the Indy 500.

You can also see the marker light tint I installed last week.

Wow!! I've been looking all over different forums to see if someone has one like me. I just purchased mine May 19th. It looks just like yours... performance white, brembo package, hood scoop, pedestal spoiler, and racing stripes!! Lucky for me the dealership screwed up the stripe job and is now painting them on for free since it has been more than three weeks! I have the optional comfort package and Shaker 1000 with subwoofer in the trunk. Awesome ride... I love it. I will post pictures when I pick up the car. Hopefully within the next few days!

That's just my iphone struggling to get a good exposure. They're bright, but not nearly as bright as that picture makes em out to be.

Washed her up and went for a drive. Stopped to take a few photos at the forest preserve and next to the canal.

Most stunning white in the PW forums

Your car is inspiring.. I LOVE the stripes and I LOVE the wing and how the underside works perfectly with the rear stripes. Also love the shift ****.
Its all comes together very very well.
Also great pics.. You can tell you love your car...
