I would get the brake package....... wheels are 9 inches wide, comes with uniquie ECS tuning. The tires are summer only (theres a hint) and you get the tire mobility kit. But, if performance is not an issue, and you drive in winter, maybe not.

The summer pirelli tires are pretty expensive.. and probably will not like those cold MI winters.

I would get the brembo package just for the wheels alone. I think they look badass.

Defintely get the bigger brakes. Why do you think the Stock maro SS brakes are Brembo 13"?? It ain't just for looks.

What is the "X-Plan"??? My quote comes out to like 36,xxx with the 2nd option premium package, Brembos, 3.73's, and a couple of things like sidescoops.

X-Plan is a special pricing established from FORD which is offered to business partners of Ford motor company, employees etc...However, I think the X-plan pricing is a little above invoice.

X-plan is 99.6% of invoice + $275 Program Adm Fee for current model cars or $75 for noncurrent. Doc Fee is limited to a max of $75.

The standard brakes on the 2011 GT are last years Track Pack Brakes (Early GT500). So even the standard brakes are not bad. The standard brakes work very well. Look at the stopping numbers on the V6 Performance Pkg Cars. These have the standard GT Brakes.

In my opinion you will only need the Brembos if you "Open Track". It will allow you to run a more streetable pad if you dont like changing at the track. Now the wheels and tires that come with the Brembo pkg is a whole different issue but please dont try to run those tires on cold asphalt.

Paid cash with no tools for my 2011 GT Premium.
Sticker was 36,820 and I paid 35... Dealers arent going down on these around me, but this is also the first manual 5.0 in the Panhandle apparently.
