So there I was...
Just checking out some of the new mustangs in Houston. I was at Lone Star Ford and I saw a 2010 Mustang GT-R in the showroom. Couldn't see much else but the badge and it had tape stripes similar to the super snake. This car was kona blue with white stripe. I can't find anything published online about this. Is this supposed to be the "cammer" engine mustang?

lol no!
that dealer does that to so many mustangs in there.
they put rims, stripes, and the gt-r badge...... it disappoints me....
and they do the same with their "mach-1"
my friend in school saw their "mach-1" and here is the way the conversation goes....
"hey have you seen the mach 1 mustang your year"
umm no they didnt make any.....
"yea man they have em i sawz it at the dealer"
ummm naw man they're not mach 1's they just make em look like one its added stuff from the dealer.....
"naw man!! it had the little thing sticking out the hood and it said mach 1 and its faster...

That's what I was wondering. Thought it was odd to not be able to find anything online about that. The badge did look like the old Nissan emblems but its still easy to be fooled. The rims looked nice at least.

I saw a 2010 GT in grabber blue done up like a Mach with a functional shaker, tinted windows and 20" wheels by a dealer here in Vegas and it looked damn good. It had louvers on the rear window too. I like when dealers do the cars right, but GT-R badge doesn't seem right.
