I will take a look on monday when I'm there. Unless this is something that changed for 2017, the 2016 PDI detail list has that spacers are only on R models but better safe than sorry.

I'm not normally a red fan but that race red with black roof is slick.
I'd have to agree as thsts the color combo I'm picking up on Friday. ;)

I like to disassemble things.
Love the color combination. Fairly low profile, allowing you to fly under the radar. You are gonna love it!

Thanks - i've always preferred a more low profile car, flashy gets me in trouble :D

My only complaint about the GT350 is that while it is a very special car, the options to differentiate the car via packages/colors were quite limited, so we end up with a lot of people driving the same vehicle. My first step will be to make some modifications to help differentiate my car. The key word will be tasteful though. Nothing i hate more than peoples cars who looked like they walked down the aisle at AutoZone and put every chrome piece and sticker on their car.

Well i picked up the car today at the dealership and i couldn't be happier. I checked and confirmed no spring spacers, must be just be the angle of the photo making the ride height seem high.

The dealership was kind enough to leave everything alone when it came to the PDI on the car, all stickers, all papers, all plastic was left in place for me. The only thing that was done was fluids checked and splitter installed, spoke with the service manager who confirmed everything was fully installed (no spare screws or hardware!), they even left the license plate and didn't screw it in so that i could do this myself. The cherry on top was that the salesman ordered me another window sticker so that i could have a factory ford one in case the one on the car is damaged during removal.

On the drive home i took it pretty easy as it was mostly highway, but after 30min of responsible driving i decided to open it up to pass a slow car on the highway, just my luck as i pass the person with exhaust in sport mode that a highway patrol passes me going the opposite direction on the highway... Just in case i got off at the next exit and took the back roads home which ended up being a blessing in disguise as i got a better chance to experience the handling of the car.

Only a short 50min first drive but definitely has me excited to return from my trip and get out there again

Exciting ride home, congrats. If you ever want to see how loud the car really is, open the pipes and roll the windows down......then let her rip.
