It finally came in! It showed up on the lot on June 27th and I picked it up on Jun 30th, wow it's awesome! Of course it was pouring rain when I picked it up and it rained every day after that so it's really dirty, but I was told that I can't wash it for 2 weeks to allow the paint protection to set. I don't want to post pictures of a dirty mustang so I'll wait until I can wash it. It's been tough holding it back while I break it in, so far I only have about 700 km, just another 900 to go! I love the projection of the mustang from under the side mirrors, it looks like someone put a stencil on the ground and painted a running mustang on the pavement (in the dark)! I sure get a lot of looks while driving around.
Stay tuned, I'll get the pics up as soon as I can wash it....

Very nice looking car man.
Hey Chad, or anybody else, can you confirm something for me...A fella from town here said he ordered his white '13 GT and it was supposed to have the fog lights in the grille. He double checked with the salesman, and was told Yes it definitely had them. The car arrived and obviously the fog lights were not in the grille. So the salesman looks into it and told him you cannot get them in Canada. The guys was absolutely pissed, and refused to take the car. I talked to him at the last cruise night, and he is going to pick his new '13 Mustang GT from Seattle, WA next week, and yes it has the fog lights in the grille.
So my questions are: Is it true that only the US models come with the fog lights in the grille? And secondly, is this guy gonna run into a problem getting the car to pass a safety here in Canada?

Nice pics Vmax5000!
Hey Dub, I was at Erinwood Ford in Mississauga recently 'cause they always have a ton of Mustangs on the lot, and I kept thinkin' to myself, somethings not right with the GT's. Bingo, it's the lack of fogs in the grill. A quick check at a few dealer websites, and I can't find one pic of a '13 GT for sale with the fogs in the grill. One more reason to get a '12 and somehow fit it with a '13 rear end . . .
