I was at 25-26 mpg with 3.73s on the trip to ZDayZ, fwiw.

Sounds like a Brembo is a must. Ok... I will go that route. However, my sales person introduced me to a Race Red 2012 (new of course) that might be cheaper than ordering new. Your guys' thoughts on Race Red????

Was my second choice of 2012 colors

I really like the race red, aside from the flash factor, its a great color.

Love race red! :tup:

yes sir, hold brake in, traction control button twice and voila. I like how the steering stiffens up a bit.

Yeah, base models do have Sport mode as well. It's just programmed a little differently on the Brembo cars.

Hunter green
Dark blue
Graphite


But the need to have a good shine to them

Good to know.

Does the fact that race red has no "pop" or no flakes, a concern to you guys? or just the ferrari reddish type color is what draws you in?

So to get sport mode, just hold brake in then push tc button 2x?

Cool-good to know.


On the 12s, steering can actually be adusted without going into sport mode. Pretty cool IMO

I would have killed for a race red brembo package. The paint looks sweet in person.

Race red doesn't need a flake... its almost the perfect red.

And correct on sport mode.

yep, its kind of a rapid press, probably within a second of each other. Also, to turn all the traction controls off, stop the car completely, hold the brake down while holding down the tc button for 6 seconds. Dont recommend this though, i've almost died more than once.

thanks for input on TC mode... I did not know that. Then again, I am (will be) new to mustangs... lol.

As for red, I like how it looks, but I still think Kona is it for me. I have to get the deal straightened out... we'll see. And thanks everyone for input on non-brembos. I will x that out of consideration :D

Steve teach me how to drive the 5.0 :l

Definitely get the color you want. Kona is gorgeous in person. I love love love it.

I would rather write naked call options against AAPL than teach you to drive the 5.0. Less risky. :icon17:

:icon17:

Scared that I will be better than you? at off roading.

Scared that you will total my car and get both of us killed. :happydance:

White text :bowrofl:

That's not actually nearly as risky of a move as it would have been, say, last year

Nah we'll be ok. I will try and control my "Fast and Furious"-ness.

Why?

Because I don't have As much faith in apples stock right meow



Surprised steve didn't offer you the same deal he offered me.


You can drive my car...but don't wreck it...if you wreck it.....



...I won't let you drive it anymore

I like that deal better :icon17:

Dan has experience, Shahid doesn't. :icon17:

Don't want no manual n00bs driving my whip!!!

Damn that's harsh...trust me on the dragon...don't trust shahid in an open parking lot:bowrofl:


I mean, I'd be the same way...but you're a much better driver than me :tiphat:

:tiphat:

Steve only trusts me because I looked good for the six seconds he saw my headlights before the first straight

Wow... I was defenseless. Not sharing a cabin with you next year :gtfo2:





:inoutroflpuke:

Psh, you enjoyed yourself with that mag lite and we all know it

Sumbitch! I hate you guys :roflpuke2:

You violated me with said maglite while I was passed out on rufalin. I knew my donuts tasted weird... now I know why!

:wtf2:

But I have confidence. Not as much as Dan, but that's an impossible level for anyone else to reach.

:wtf2:

hey guys, when you said all GT's have the "sport" mode setting (brake in, 2x TC button) regardless of Brembo package or not, did you mean both the 2011 and 2012 still have this sport mode? or just the 2012's?

Both.

Burton, you got a 5.0 yet?

The suspense is killing me!
