Can't wait to see one up close and in person. Might convince me to trade in my 2012.

Do you plan to get a baseline dyno? I am curious if the 2013's really produce more power than the 2011-12's. My guess is that they don't and Ford simply upped the rating to what it should've been all along.

I'm not planning a baseline dyno. But I can say that JLT dyno'd their 2013 gt manual running on 87 octane with 115 miles on the car and made 362whp which is basically on par with a 2011-2012 on premium gas... that should tell you something

Wow! Nice looking! I love that color. Are those seats heated and powered?

Can one of you blessed new owners check the inside of the sun visors?

Got no idea why, but it's bugging me. Did they change the shape of the hood design on the mirror covers?

Nice damn car BTW...those seats look comfy

Beautiful but still need to see in person. None of the dealerships around here have any. Not too sure about a couple of the aesthetic changes....so, will have to wait and see. GREAT JOB MAN!!!
