Saw one in person today...

[Ryan02Stang]

Car is absolutely AWESOME in person! I love the oversized Cobra emblems. I didn't think the ride height was THAT bad, its not race car low...but its not like past 4x4 Mustangs. The front brakes look HUGE in person and fill up the entire 18 inch wheels. Interior was not poor quality at all, the steering will looked great! My only real compaint about the car was the ugly "knob" (antenna) for the Sirius radio, it looks terribly out of place...I def won't be opting for satellite radio when I order mine. Here are a couple pics...

Ahh yes...the dreaded black blob!:bored:
With technology comes sacrafice...and I sacraficed Sirius for that very reason.

The dude standing behind the car is either screaming with excitement or is thoroughly not impressed...LOL

I chose to get the Sirius because I will just relocate the blob inside the trunk. We did this on my dads Benz and it worked just fine, it's just 2 way taped on.

Oh the beauty! :bowdown:

Isn't there some kind of hole poked in the deck lid for the wire to go through? I like your idea though if there is no hole!

If it can be relocated in the trunk (without leaving an access hole)...that would be awesome!

i am fairly certain that the wire is ran through the spoiler area...

 

[Ry_Trapp0]

nice stuff man, i really dont think the ride height is all that bad either. of course it can be lower but, for a from-the-factory performance car, its not all that bad. dont some mercedes(AMGs?) sit higher than that?

the amg mercedes have a ride height adjustor inside the car that can lower the car approx 1" via a button.

The shelby has as much of a wheel gap as my 04 cobra does with the stock springs and 18" wheels...17's make the gap look less.

 

[Ry_Trapp0]

oh yea, thats right. forgot about the fact that every car they seem to make has ride hieght adjustment, neck warmers, padded gas/brake/clutch pedals...

 

[VENOM650R]

Yeah...the oversized Cobra emblems go with the oversized 3995 lb. car. :lol:

Sorry, unfortunately the wire runs through a hole in the trunk. I just walked out into my garage and confirmed...

For every two comments like that, you get one warning! :nono:

 

[Whitten]

You know I was thinking for anyone who wanted the Sirius but not the blob, they could mount the antenae inside of one of the rear view mirror pods. I have seen it down on many cars and it works fine as well as dissapears.

I figured it did. How do you like your GT500 so far?? Any driving impressions? I must say...I'm quite jealous of your garage. 2005 GT and 2007 GT500...very nice!

I did not like the way the plate goes into the bumper now. No chance for SS inserts on that.

How long have the inserts been in the bumpers? Don't you think designs ever need to progress??! :shrug:
