newbie...2014 ghig GT/CS

After having an 07 Grabber Orange GT and a 2011 Grabber Blue GT/CS, I had to have something different. Honestly, I kick myself for selling the '11, but its done.

2014 ghig, GT/CS 6m, electronics package/nav, comfort package, 3.73's and shaker pro audio. I just picked it up with 1068 miles and it was just put into service in April of this year!

A few crappy cell pics for now:

14 is stock(for now). My 07 was forged, single turbo and manual. My 11 was Magnacharged and auto. All completely different.

Whoa. I missed that. You're right, apples and apple strudels.

I don't like them either. Shame because they are 19s. I will eventually change them, when money allows for It.

That is a sweet looking car and my favorite color. It looks like it might have aftermarket exhaust on it. Does it?

I don't think the wheels look bad.

Good eye.. .I still had gt500 mufflers and lethal ota pipes leftover from my 11.

The color is something else in the sun! When it first came out, I really didn't like it.

GO, GB, and GHIG....all in-your-face finishes. I sense a trend!!!

Congrats and much luck with it. I think it's the first CS I've seen in that color.

Welcome to the GHIG club! Also you are correct, only 46 GHIG GT/CS's made in 2014 and I have one of the 14 Verts! I love it!

I had an '06 Legend Lime GT and I wasn't originally a fan of GHIG and I still don't like it that much when it isn't broken up by black stripes or something. That's why I think it's a great color on a California Special, the black hood vents and side stripes break it up just right IMHO. The color is also very special looking in person and in different lighting, it's really great!

Keep in mind at only 46 examples GHIG is still the second most rare color for the GT/CS...someone out there has a 1 of 1 Grabber Blue 2014 coupe!

I'll probably never see a convert in person, that's rare.

I looked at a ghig before I bought my gb and didn't really like it either. It's starting to grow in me now.

Very nice find. So that must have been hidden on a lot some where? Finding a new CS last April would have made that a rare find. Dealer must have been pushing the 15s. Great looking car.

Thumbs up Nice, got one too!

I love the GT/CS. With the GHIG it's a true knock out. All that electronics should still be under warranty so you can rock on. Way'da stay in Stangs!!

Thanks to everyone. The color is definitely a plus, but I keep compairing it to my 11.

Once I get some wheels, I have a set of Vogtland springs ready to install.
