pricing wasnt out but looking at the similar equipped 2012... the car is gonna run low 40's so invoice is around 38-39 ish... my brother has a 05 mustang now that should trade in for 11-12K...

all in all not a bad deal i think for 420hp car.... i cant wait to try out that drag race timer thing in the dash

Nice

congrats, hopefully he enjoys it.

I'm not surprised that he got the car at invoice-- ford dealers are pretty straightforward and BS free

Lemers · 12-14-2011, 08:40 PM

Any pricing or release on the '13 GT500?

Rooster89 · 12-14-2011, 09:27 PM

Yeah, I think the glass roof is pretty cool. I have yet to see one in person. But its definitely an option i would consider.

I guess, maybe I'm just biased because of personal experience.

The glass roof is amazing. I didn't look for a car with it because I didn't think I wanted that extra weight up top, but after realizing my car is used more as a street machine than anything else it's one of those options I'd look for if I could do it all over again. It's really cool.

MC... that's sweet. Gonna be a nice car. I'm sure your bro will enjoy it.

Like Red I'm not surprised he got a good deal on it.

Lemers... nothing yet. But I think this car is going to be in high demand and is going to have some pretty big markups attached to it.

but with the brembos he said they arnt an option

m4a1mustang · 12-15-2011, 12:53 PM

The standard Brembo should be the same ones we have now (looks like it from the order guide) which are the Porsche 911 GT2 style.

2013 GT500 track package.

Not going to lie... very very tempting.

Those look a little like the Aventador wheels, especially if they were all black.

Yeah the new ones are really cool. For some reason my first thought was Tron.

Lemers · 12-15-2011, 03:23 PM

I don't like either set. Think the dealer would swap out my rays as part of a trade in?

I'm with you, I don't care for either set. Well actually the wheels in the pictures on page 1 look pretty good.
