Awesome car, congratulations!

So, compared to the regular 2010+ GT seats, what do you think of the Recaros?

I love the Recaros!! I had them on my Boss and knew I had to have them on the 2013 as well. I have lower back problems and I can drive this car and the Boss when I had it for many hours at a time with no issues. The regular seats not so much

Thanks for the info, i dont know about you but i ordered the 301a which adds power front driver seat. But selecting recaros negates the power driver option. Kinda bummed but i guess the 420 horsepower will cheer me up.

Same here, I ordered the 301A. I just really wanted the Sync system for the car but did not want to go premium. Gonna add Sirius at some point down the road

Added stripes yesterday. Sorry about the pics but I was trying to get them taken in between rain squalls here in not so sunny Florida...

Looks real good, I am trying to decide if I want my tint guy to do the completion of my stripe down the front. I def want it done down the back. But alas i still have to wait for the car to get here. Also its funny how the green looks different is so many different pictures.

Sunlight / phone determines how this color looks. My wife's iPhone sucks for picture taking.. looks really pale in color. Yesterday was really crappy weather here as well...

Dropped the car off yesterday on my way out of town. It'll be at the paint shop getting the hood vents painted black as well as the area between the exhaust pipes..

Pics to come when I pick her up next week

I love what you have done so far and am looking forward to seeing the updates that are coming. I would be very interested to get your driving impressions of this car versus your Boss.

You could just finish the top stripe onto the upper portion of the nose and that would look pretty good.

Bought a complete set (wheels / tires / TPMS) of 2013 Boss 302 wheels yesterday for my car. Just waiting to get it back from paint shop on the other mods being done.

Honestly the big difference between the 2 cars is the handling. Straight line acceleration is comparable to me.

Never had the Boss on the track so I can't comment on 1/4 mile or auto-cross impressions. Hoping to get the new 2013 to the track soon but the weather here in FL is too **** hot really.
