Well even though after 10 weeks of waiting they said it wouldn't be in until next week. I got the call today, picked it up and then had to rush to my wedding rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. Don't have a lot of time but I LOVE IT. 07 GT C/S Optioned out. Took pics, and will post them in a week or so after I get back from my honeymoon. Now to take care of this wedding thing tomorrow....

Look at that, jumping on te forum to make a formal announcement about your new car, just hours before the dreaded walk.

Hope she likes the new car, cause you'll be spening lots of time with it when you get back.

Congrats...

Thanks all, just got back from Jamaica tonight. Man I love driving that car. I took a couple of pics at the dealership when I picked it up. I'll put em up tomorrow when I can see straight.

Clarification.....

Someone prove me wrong, but I'm fairly certain the ride height is not 1.5" lower. The front fascia is simply 1.5" closer to the ground is all. The springs and suspension is no different than a regular GT.

Also, it does not actually have a larger air intake manifold, but the front fascia has a larger area for air to come in.

This is off of Ford's website:

"Exterior accents include side scoops and unique front and rear fascias. The front fascia has a larger air intake and is actually 1.5-inches lower than the standard GT. The rear fascia is also cut differently with less tuck-in."


The GT/CS has absolutely no power or performance upgrades over the GT, they are all just cosmetic upgrades.

Personally though, I love the CS's bumpers and my GT is in the shop getting them installed as we speak!

Yeah, all cosmetic. Due to the front valence it is 1.5 inches lower. The actual ride height isn't 1.5 inches lower, just the front valence.

well, here they are. Pretty bad pictures, but I had to take em and run to do wedding stuff. It hasn't been nice here since, so I haven't had the chance to wash her and take pictures. I will post more once it gets nice here.
