Helllo All.

Reporting from Atlanta, GA here.

I purchased my first mustang about 2 weeks ago(not my first ford- owned a 2011 lifted f150)- I love this damn thing, every time i get in the driver seat a smile is plastered across my face. But im sure i dont need to elaborate on how amazing driving a mustang on a mustang forum...

Anyways the specs on my car,

2013 performance white GT/california special. Loaded out with everything except the rear view sensors, camera, and brembos. Im really regretting not getting the camera/sensors from the factory. Rear visibility kinda sucks. I LOVE the glass roof, wish it was able to open the roof up all the way. That would be awesome...

I wish I had them I want to come around to installing them sooner or later. Want to find a way to Wire the camera in the the factory navigation. Anyone done the or know of a tread to point me to. Will run a search when I get home after work.

You would have to turn around like everyone else? :shrug:

Really? Man I would have never thought of that.

I was talking more along the lines of how spoiled it makes you. Very easy to back out in tight situations but you do still have to turn around and look for safety sakes.

Yea I know. I had the reverse camera in my mirror on my old 5.0 I traded in. My new GT500 doesn't have it and I miss the hell out of it. Makes it much easier to back it in like a G. :beer:

It really came in handy the day my stupid truck battery died and was parked in the driveway behind the mustang in the garage. I was able to do like a 30 point turn to get out quickly versus having to get in and out of the car multiple times. Otherwise it's just a cool conversation piece for if someone goes for a ride in the car. the sensors are pretty much worthless with the camera if you're paying attention.

I still don't understand why Ford didn't put in HID fog lights on the C/S model. The combination of HID and halogen just looks silly. Especially for how much you pay for the C/S model.

Welllll... It's not that much more than a regular gt premium, but I am a little bothered they are halogen. But I can live with it... I don't think they offer his dogs for the lower fascia on any model but I've seen come hids in the grille. Doesn't make sense
