I work at a Ford dealership, we just got our first 2013 5.0 GT in. Friggin nice!! Black, no stripes, Brembo pkg, Sync, Track App, 6-speed. EXACTLY how I'd order it.... I think they're trying to tempt me... Pix forthcoming.

FYI - You can get the "base" GT without the useless SYNC system, but still order up the Brembos, Torsen, and Recaros for $34,385. (fixed the price typo)

Says $34,385 for me. I like Sync though. Of course I deal with it all friggin day here, but I really like it. It does need an age/knowledge limit on it though. Haha

Wow! Seeing that, I hafta say....

glad I bought an 05.

Seriously on the taillights, and the whole ass end looks like it fell off a Taurus.

And those rims??!! they're hideous! like daisys or something. AND I'll bet they're 19s

the hood vents, well, I kind of like, even if they area a little ricey.

Now, the coyote, the Brembos, and the the Recaros on the other hand......

Hey, speaking of Recaros, Conquest351 - any inside tips on how not to pay $3k for a set of GT500 Recaros?

In reply to ultraclyde:

Skip the GT500 Recaros (they're leather) and get the GT/Boss/Laguna Seca Recaros. Same seats, but black cloth.

In about 10 years I'd like to think that a tired 05 GT could be found cheap, and the 5.0/6-Speed/Torsen/Brembos swapped over....

Sync is far from useless. I use it all the time in my '11 GT.

Now, if you're talking about the touchscreen system in some of the newer Fords, that's a different story...

The Mustang looks worse the more crap you stick on it. Wing delete! Scoop delete! Chrome delete!

That's a really nice looking car. I'd want one without the badges, spoiler, and louvers, but otherwise that looks like exactly the Mustang I'd order as well.

Agreed. The redesign looks like a bag of ass - compared to your model, which I think is the best looking, most innovative of the "let's build a new car that looks like an old car" designs. They still grab my attention. The new ones may as well be a prius to me (aesthetically.)

(Waits for alfadriver to tell me I'm obviously 'not a car guy.')

I like it. I have some changes I would make, but that is about as close as I have found as I would order it.

Funny, I'm not a Ford guy at all. Will never NEVER ever buy a Ford however I like the louvers, taillights and that little spoiler on the back. Hate the wheels.

Those wheels are OK. If you want ugly, look at an Edge with the Sport package.

And I love Sync.

Those wheels? Seriously look like cheap cast copies of the rx8 r3 wheels

those wheels are hideous... they should just let you order the car with some generic skinny steel wheels on it and get whatever you want..

ditch the 5.0 badges, hide the exhaust tips, and put a base grille in it and go have some fun..

Still my favorite of the 2013 Mustangs. Love the new taillights, as they fix what was wrong with the '10-12 versions, as well as the louvered hood. The basic wheels are lame, but there are many options right from the factory. But it's the BOSS 302 package that really does it. Love the '70 style stripes for this year, vs the '69 style for 2012. I'm planning on doing the same stripe package on my own '06 GT convertible (quick photoshop to see how it would look):
