Default I'm enjoying vacation

Spending time away from home. Finally got to check out some nice cars. Hadn't seen a gt500 or boss yet. Found these.





The place with the boss had two stage two Roush stangs too.

I might add the dealer with the boss had a red gt500 with white stripes too.

Another observation was that I was completely surprised that the stripes on the 500 were vinyl not painted. I'll admit I was underwhelmed by the 500.

I have a friend with a 2011 GT500 with the SVT package. (skinny stripes like the ones in your pictures) His are already pealing in several places. He's not happy.

Yeah I was expecting them to be painted high quality. I'm sure the stripes on the boss are vinyl too but that orange color just said take me home.

The skinny stripes come in the SVT package, along with different wheels (20s in the back and 19s in the front) and a few other things. Personally I like them a million times better than the regular stripes. They look amazing in person.
