Default New 2010 GT owner (now with easy to view resized pictures!)

Hi everyone, I'm a new 2010 owner. I've had the car about a week and I love it. I have had several sports cars over the last few years (soon to be listed in my sig) including a 05 GT vert. I originally went to the dealer looking at a 09 GT500, but that was sold, so I checked out the '10, and was completely surprised by the upgrades introed into the '10 model.


Enough about me, now the car:
2010 GT premium, Candy Red, M5, upgraded interior package (401A I think) black leather with cashmere inserts, Sync w/ sat radio, voice command, ambient lighting and backup camera. Outside is rocking the 19" gunmetal wheels. Here are a couple pics:












I've spent a little over 500 mi with the car over the last few weeks, so if you have any questions, let me know and I'll answer them as best I can.



Also, sorry about picture size, I didnt think to resize them before I had them hosted.

I see you have the "life-sized" pictures.

Congratulations on your sharp looking purchase. Big thumbs up on the color choice. Good luck with it.

Wow!
Those photos of the seats look like you stole the pics off Ford's website! I like how the leather looks nice and firm! But see the few waves in the leather? Hopefully those won't multiply with age.
Great color too. The Red Candy was one of my favorites after seeing them all in person.

Be sure to post on the thread I started about any neat features you find in your 2010.

I think the waves in the leather are due to the softness; the leather in these are surprisingly plush. I traded a 08 Mercedes Benz C300 in on the GT, and I would put the GT's interior above the MB's in quality. I'm not too worried about the leather retaining waves or wrinkles, I'm pretty versed in taking care of these things and will be on the lookout!!
