Hpfisterer Posted May 29, 2010 Report Share Posted May 29, 2010 It’s here, finally. First let me start by thanking the forum and its members, “Blue” especially, for providing much needed information. The info I get here along with the discussions helped pass the time over the last two months. After months of waiting, it’s finally here. Came in last night, saw it for the first time today. Not sure if I can take it home today or not, the selling dealer over-nighted the paperwork to the local dealer but the package hasn't arrived yet. This picture is as it was when it came off the truck. Somewhere along the line it was cleaned because it surely can't be that clean after sitting in lots for 5 weeks. It’s with the detailer now, supposed to rain this afternoon but if the paperwork shows, I'm taking it home. I haven't really seen it clearly yet. Before I went to the dealer I had an eye appointment so my pupils were dilated and I couldn't see clearly. Everything appeared real bright, bright light everywhere, like I was in heaven or something. I’ll post more pics later, once it officially mine and cleaned up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GOTVENOMGT500 Posted May 29, 2010 Report Share Posted May 29, 2010 Congrats bro, you must be so excited. I'd be just like you wanting to take her home and "have her" as soon as I possibly could. Honestly in the past I've never really been a fan of white paint or stripes on a car, but after seeing the Race Red in person with the white stripes here at the dealer in the next town it looks pretty killer. Glad your wait is over and am looking foward to picture and also your thoughts about her once you get some miles in the drivers seat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torched10 Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 like the race red--looks a little redder than Torched red, and it IS the fastest color--congrats, now go set the SC and blow everyone away---bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tob Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 If I could have any car, I think I'd default to a 2011 red with white stripe GT500 Performance Package. That car is the epitome of bad assery on wheels. I am far more than just chock full of envy. Nice car! Tob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjbarnet Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 like the race red--looks a little redder than Torched red, and it IS the fastest color--congrats, now go set the SC and blow everyone away---bob A local dealer had a 2011 Race Red right next to a 2010 Torch Red...Race Red is little brighter and has more of a slight orange tint to it than Torch Red. My wife agreed...finally something Mustang related that we agreed on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
