Why oh why didn't Ford make it in Guard with gray stripes?

When can we order the car??

Order guide says Shadow Black and Avalanche Grey are not new colors....anyone have examples of these to share?

I was mildly disappointed to see the "R" is not available in yellow. However I am thinking either Blue or Black is going to be the right color for it after seeing some pictures. And then there's the question of stripes...

Ford removes the air conditioning system from the GT350 R to save weight, but are they removing the heater core and heater hoses ? I can see no reason why anyone would have a desire to drive a GT350 R in the Winter and thus would have no need for a heater.

I just noticed the trans is a Tremec and not the crappy mt-82!

Ben,

I know this is a few weeks old, but if you look in the order guide under the 920A trim line, the yellow is an option.

I just saw the yellow as an option there as well when I was reading through it and was going to post that lol

"Pericak said last week he signed off on the final engineering of the GT350 and GT350R Mustangs which customers will be able to order soon."

This was posted today by the Detroit Free Press. Hopefully we get the real order sheet here soon.

Today was the last day to enroll. I imagine by April ordering banks will open.

Went and checked out the 5.0 colors today, and am leaning toward blue.

 

[Lemers]

Yes DIB or the Avalanche Gray

Must see side by side to decide.

So are the non Recaro seats regular GT seats?

I am wondering the same thing.

Anyone have any seat info?

 

[Lemers]

I haven't seen any pictures of the non recaro seats, but I would guess that they will be the same leather cooled/heated seats from other mustangs.

Ford may be nice enough to put a GT350 logo in the seats, if we are lucky.

Is there a break down of what comes in each package?

DIB is a good looking color. Would you go stripe delete then? The black stripe/red outline wild be good looking.

I think I'm going with a white stripe delete with black roof.
