Default Checked out my first 05 GT

And.........I like 99-04 body style better. The 05 really really needs something. The hood is long and boring, the wheels are hideously gross, the tall & skinny tires are total puke, the rear bumper looks funny. The interior looked great, really cool looking. The engine intake looks eerily like a LS1 setup...har har har

But I do have to say the Saleen pictures and all the other pictures from Sema made my ***** ache because they looked so great. The car has potential though.

I like the hood, its the rear end that makes my stomach turn. Its just something about it. And the tires HAVE to go. The wheels are ok, have you seen ALL options for them yet>? They have a nice set of chrome bullit wheel with "spinners" on the center. Like the old school rims.

Yeah, apparantly when they start Job 2 next year they will have another Bullitt wheel like you said & a wheel similar to the concept cars wheel?

They did keep the bullitt rim. All the GT's in the lot I see everyday all have Bullitts. And I agree with you Dan... the '05 is just ugly!

Yeah, I was suprised. I didn't think they would have it as an option on the first Job. Everything I read said they would only have that ugly *** wheel for Job 1. I can't wait to see how the chrome B's will look on it.

The car has potential though, I won't call it ugly. The Sema cars looked amazing.
