Default 2013 Mustang... I like!

I know this has been discussed several times already, but I feel the need to bring it up as my I've had a change of heart. When viewing pics of the 2013 models, I said that the only thing I wasn't very fond of was the round looking front end, just like many of you thought too. Well, on my way to work today, I saw a grabber blue V6 coupe parked on the street and it looked really good. The front end does actually flow very well with the rest of the car. The black deck lid panel always looks good on all non-black Mustangs, and I think Ford really hit it home putting it stock on all Mustangs. Stock HIDs are a huge plus as well. And those tail lights are just beautiful, although I didn't get to appreciate them as much as I would have liked because a guy driving a van got in the way. Anyway, seeing the 2013 V6 in person has completely changed my opinion about them. I would still like to see a GT though to give a better opinion about it, because I don't really like the look of those tiny fog lights it has.

I think AM and Roush already did it. It is an almost perfect fit, it just leaves a small gap between the bumper and tail lights.

I just test drove a 2013 V6. I've gotta say, I am impressed with the 3.7l. It definitely has some pick up after 3500rpm. I was hoping to look at the 2013 5.0 because I wanted to get a good look at one in person but unfortunately, that V6 was the first one they had at the dealership. I'm sold on the look of the 2013 now and the interior is worlds better than mine and I was only driving the base model with charcoal cloth.

Started talking technical terms while I was driving and I could just tell the salesman had no idea what the hell I was talking about. Made me feel good about myself haha

They did have a couple sweet 2012 5.0s though. I'm torn between the two body styles, but have definitely come to the conclusion that I'm a fan of both. It's amazing what an in-person perspective can have on your opinions.

Come to Ohio! Some BIG Ford dealers here. I interned with a smaller one that had two manual 2013 GT's that sold within a few days. One was a dark grey with the Brembo and Recaro package. *Drool*

I'll make my way back up North someday, but today isn't it haha. Oh yea, the brembo package looks sweet. I saw a 2012 black 5.0 with the brembo package that the dealer dressed up with black 5.0 badges, medallions, tails, and sidemarkers, and black brembo wheels. Looked amazing.

However, unfortunately I haven't been able to test drive a 2013 5.0 yet... the day will come.
