Is there any chance that Shelby will offer a second seat color for the "Base Car" other than the black one they are offering?? I do not want the Recaro's but when I ordered my Redeye Hellcat they had available at the time black, red, and a saddle brown if my memory is working today. I went with the Red as its a great color in a black car.

Great question, Chuck!

I will be meeting with Shelby American next week at Barrett-Jackson in Las Vegas. I will be sure to ask about planned option details for the GT500.

I have recently been told that the Super Snake Wide-body option will be in the $50,000+ range.
My preference would be if the factory would just offer a 2nd selection, maybe a black/red combination tastefully done. I would be glad to pay an extra thousand or so for it. Probably not going to happen. Iam just not a fan of the Recaro's as I sat in one years ago and found them to be uncomfortable for my body type. Perhaps my Big Butt just didn't like them!!!!! LOL

Chuck: My guess is, there is only one interior color combo, we all get the same thing. I say that because there were no options for different colors during ordering and, the Configurator doesn't offer any either.

Color options would be awesome on this car. Other than the obvious economics not sure why they don't offer this. $10K stripes, $18K track pak....i personally would pay decent amount extra for interior color options....

Me too Protraxduner. I would gladly pay an upcharge of a thousand or so for red seats or even a red/black combo seat.

To me seats have long been neglected by Ford. I look at my 2013 GT and the leather is thick! Solid. Now the leather appears paper thin. Ford please work on your seats. Sort of one of the first things to show wear. Comparing 2013 to 2019 BULLITT it’s like night and day. Wanting to know about GT 500 sport seats and if Miko suede is used?

Honestly these poor seats are one reason I'm not sure I would have minded getting recaros. If I'm getting mediocre quality, might as well get it for performance reasons!

I bet, though, in the future I'll be able to replace the standard seats with something lighter and better a la ZL1
