My pony's gone...
That color is beautiful. I just did the same thing with my 4.0. Now I'm starting to understand all that V8 hype.

Thanks man! Yeah huge step up from the 4.0, I'm a bit afraid of it still.
@Xann, looks very sharp. I must have it. I almost wish you hadn't posted that, because I get a bit obsessive when I see things that I must have.
They're alright. I went through Ford's site when I was looking for the car, and the guys at Star Ford were the only ones who responded. Originally I was looking at used 2011-12 GTs, which is what they had, but I declined when set my eyes on the 2013-14. Two weeks after blowing them off, the same sales rep called me back up and told me they had new 2014 GTs within my price range, so I rolled on in. It was a smooth transaction, low stress, just took a little longer than I'd like.
Since they're under construction, I had to wait for them to transfer my vehicle from another dealership. The worst part of the entire deal was that I had technically already purchased my new car, but drove off the lot with my old one.
Y'know, I had already removed the Boss 302 intake from my mod list because of the trouble it's been causing some other users. I'm a bit apprehensive about non-Ford power adders at the moment since I want to keep my warranty intact. So I'll probably go with a FRPP tune and axle back exhaust to get things started on that front.

Very nice upgrade, dont waste your money on the boss intake, the only gain seen by reputable tuner show minimal gain of a very few hp in the 7k range and over versus a bigger loss in torque in lower rpm, and these engine are also know. For having a weak low end torque, upgrade your gear or get a tune at least(you ll need one anyway if you would go with the boss intake) you will feel a difference this way, enjoy the
