Using the parts list that Schwerin pulled together on the other thread:
( S550 Special Edition Part Numbers - Google Sheets )
I'm up to about $6500, that's parts only and I know it's incomplete - I can't find the cost of the splitter extension or even part numbers for things like Strut Top...
That's how I ordered mine - except I went with the manual.
I think this one has the Recaros as well, looking at the profile of the seats...
Great to see an orange car, I keep regretting not choosing black/blue/FJG/silver when I see how good they look in everyone else's photos!

Thank you!
That angle is really helpful.
It looks like mainly sidewall which (I think?!) is OK as it's the treaded area that needs to be under the bodywork. As my build date got knocked back I've got plenty of time to look into it...
Looking at Tshenberg's car on the other thread I think the...
I'm with you and Charlemagne - I was going for a more OEM+ look overall, so would prefer Ford wheels to aftermarket even though the selection is very limited.
Those PP2 wheels look great on your car, and suit it far better than black would, definitely the right choice!
A question if you don't...
Now that is interesting!
I'd been looking at the PP2 wheel package as well as I want wider tyres, and also prefer the simpler design.
I thought I'd need to get them shipped direct from the US - a dealer order would make things so much easier.
There's only one thing that concerns me a bit, as...
Your car is looking better in every picture - the lighting in that side shot really shows off the lines.
I think the HP wheels look fantastic and the fender extensions look very good installed - I wasn't sure if they would work but they really do.
Hope the dealer gets you a new splitter soon...
Looks fantastic!
It seems like there's a lot of depth to Iconic silver, and your car looks really sharp with the Handling Package.
Great choice with the red calipers too, picking up the highlights in the stripes.
Bet you can't wait to get it!

Same here!
It was a very hard decision though - the other colours look really great.
I'm definitely keeping the decals, and I think the more subtle white border works well with the orange as the paint itself is so vibrant.
One thing I'm not so keen on is the revised fender badges.
I don't...
Congratulations!
Your car looks fantastic in black, really very sharp with the red stripe and calipers. Great choices.
Here's to many years and miles of enjoyment for you!

I think you could be right - that might just be USA units.
I think the Ford Australia DeskDrive video on the other thread mentioned 700 units for Australia about a minute and a half before the end. We could be getting 300 in the UK (based on what my dealer told me), so if the US number is...
I ordered on 4th December and my sales guy just let me know that the production date has slipped from mid-March to 26th April. ETA to the dealer is now around or about the 26th June.
So I guess it will be with me in early July, maybe.
Not sure why this has happened but I don't mind!
I was a buyer for Ford Automotive Operations Europe and Premier Automotive Group (which clearly dates me) and I can happily say we were just as good - or bad! - as our GM counterparts back in the day. :)
While it might be the only data we have as individual customers, comparing the price of...
I've ordered the upgrade but they are £900 option here in the UK, $395 is a comparative bargain...
It's a shame you can't get them in Australia - I can't think why they wouldn't be offered.
In my opinion they look far better than the base wheels but I'd have been happier with a slightly wider...
If you think the price difference is bad in the US, then our UK pricing is going to look even worse! The Mach 1 I've ordered is £58,835 vs £50,150 for a loaded UK-spec GT with premium paint, Mag ride, Recaros, custom pack etc.
And that's before any discounts on the GT you can readily achieve...
