I am assuming you mean fuel economy in 5th gear on the 6 speed. Since last time this was discussed. The difference between final gears in the 5 and 6 speed was .01.

That's the beauty of having a transmission made: you can make 6th damn near anything you want. Check out FB Performance if you are interested.

I can't imagine ordering a car in a color that I haven't even seen it in yet.

Normally that would be true. But I think there are only 2 of the 05 colors that we haven't seen yet. Limegreen and windveil.

I beleive the Redfire, which is what I ordered, is the same redfire that they currently use. Otherwise, I would agree.

Even if it's the same color as the current cars, I'd definitely have to see it in person in the color I was going to order it in. Just my personal preference.

That's why I visit Brad's site. The guys over there have done a photoshop of the car. In nearly every color that will be available.

The Redfire color is the same as the 04 Redfire. In fact, I just saw one of the pre-production 04 GT's yesterday in Hackensack, NJ -- in of all things, Redfire with the red leather interior upgrade.

Now I'm certain that I made the right choice!

I'd love the same configuration, but is the solobaric really necessary? And will the 18's fit? What is the A-plan? The pride is right!!!

I am into car audio and I know they say the Shaker 500 is 500 watts, but that is spread out over the entire system. Remember back in the mid to late 90s when the Mach 460 was available; that was not enough low range for me.

I am hoping that the bolt patterns have not changed, but even if not Ford Racing will most likely spin a redesign to fit the '05s. Also, there are many wheel maufacturers making copies of the wheel, so one should be available my the time I take delivery.

To the best of my knowledge, no you can't order verts yet. They are not supposed to be available until a year after the coupes hit the road.

Can anyone confirm this??
