[QUOTE="olaosunt, post: 14469108, member: 131643"] I have a 2012 GT and sold my Shelby in signature in preparation for the 15's(was planing on the GT350 or GT500 if there is one). I have been tempted by the GT but afraid it would just end up like my 12- modded to the gills but not so nice to drive daily. My dealer has 2, both with the aniversay appearance -a race red one on 18's and black one with PP. I never even considered black even though I now have 3 black cars(M235,S4 and Explorer sport) but the black with black wheels of the pp looks stunning!.I probably would have bought it but don't like the corralled horse/chrome of the anniversary package. I agree as the race red with 18 wheels looks pretty wimpy.I had considered a ruby red but having seen the red on the car color preferences have gone back to guard/magnetic/ black. I drove the red one -I thought the interior was nice( better than my m235).I don't think a base would have the same expensive feel as the premium.I really want recaros and although the anniversary appearance seats are nice I don't like the rest of the chrome on the exterior(you also lose the fangs) I only drove few miles and there was traffic so I can't say I could really tell the difference with the IRS. I must say any stock car I get into feels like a Cadillac compared to my 12 GT. I went ahead and ordered a Guard/pp/recaro but my dealer is cool and I don't have to buy it if I decide to wait on the GT350/500. If I do get it I will do FI but torn between the new whipple/or twin turbos(I now have a steigmeir Rouse/8 rib on my 12). I really don't want to end up like my 12 and will want it to to still feel close to stock in terms of the ride . Definitely no more engine swaps and power that exceed the stock fuel system. The stance of the the PP is almost perfect.The back looks great but the front looks like it should drop a bit. I would be worried about swapping the specially tuned springs so taller tires(front and back) may fix that. I am also torn between a manual and an automatic.I am about to do an auto swap in to my 12 so a manual makes the most sense but don't want to end up with a crappy MT82-I think I got lucky as the one in my 12 has help up well-has RXT clutch and bronze fork pads and has been cryotreated .If I get a manual I will have my RXT clutch to swap in If eventualy need to(if it fits) I saw that Ford racing now sells a magnum XL swap it says for 2005-2014, and I wonder if this means the GT350 will get that. In which case that would make up my mind to wait on one. Sorry for my ramblings if you read the entire post.It does help me to put down my thoughts in writing when trying to make a decision . Below is a photo of the black one. [ATTACH=full]606488[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
