I’ll post a short video of the cold start on normal mode and do a short video tomorrow on sports exhaust. Just don’t mind my mug in the video haha
That will be awesome. Congrats mate. I have the exact same spec Dark Horse coming. Can't wait to hear what you think of it.
Please let me know how the Recaros feel. I optioned them as well without being able to sit in them so I hope they are OK. 👍

One more favour if your mind has any room tomorrow after the pure adrenaline of excitement..
Please post a picture or description of how the dealer deals with the front plate on the curved bumper. Would be great to know😀

I visited my dealer today, where they have a GT in Rapid Red with the Black Pack.

Main aim was to check front bumper with the Flow Design bracket I have for the front.

Strictly no photos or video (and multiple signs saying that), in respect of the September 14 embargo. :crying:
I'm not sure how other dealerships are allowing people to be taking photos, if that's the case?
They also said cars would not be delivered before the embargo lifts, so there is clear difference in how the dealers are treating this release. :crazy:

Anyway, got to sit in it and start her up.... ohhh that Coyote V8. :inlove:

I did notice that trunk boot alignment wasn't that wonderful and there was a nasty paint chip on one of the inside corners.

It's getting real. :like:

Yeah I spoke to the Gm just 5 minutes ago and asked him not to have the plates drilled or put on the car I’ll bring some double sided tape with me tomorrow to drive it home and figure out where to best place them plates on that V diamond front end

I could’ve picked my dh up today if it wasn’t bank public holiday, maybe each dealership is doing things differently. There was about 20 people taking photos and there to view my DH.

My dealer would fit these plastic slimline brackets which are identical to the plastic Kingpins, and two spacers take care of the bend in the bumper. These brackets are different to the large and fugly brackets that were seen on Aussie S550s.

Anyway, I purchased a Flow Design bracket for the front over 12 months ago.
Discussed in this topic here.
CNC milled aluminium and anodised black, but not cheap.

Thanks for the tip will definitely look into them and I’ll keep you posted tomorrow if the dealer has anything to add re fitment of the plates

There’s some good sticker plates going around…. Even had some cops comment on how good they looked. 😅

A few months back I looked into the price for converting your base GT to a 2024 Shelby Super Snake. It was $130,000 on top of the price of purchasing the car so approx total cost $215,000.00

Very nice, can you get a good shot of the hood decals when you get the car and the back of the car showing the decklid, my spec is the same as yours...3 years since I ordered and still waiting for a boat :(

What's your ETA prestj1? Who knows, maybe our cars will share the same vessel. My car is also still in Baltimore waiting for a ride to Aus.

I've seen plenty of reference to no-lift-shift for the S650 before, but assumed that only applied to the Tremec in the Dark Horse.

No!

You can do this with the GT's MT82 as well, AND in all drive modes.



In case you've wondered why you haven't seen Chris on Steeda videos for a while, he left at some point and has his own channel worth subscribing to. :like:
