Two months ago I had a serious wreck that totaled my 2015 GT. I ordered that car one day short of 8 years to the day the wreck occurred. It was the Mustang that I had invested thousands into, and had planned to never let her go. Very thankful that she did what she was designed to do - save my life. I was very fortunate to have walked away.

It took a few weeks, but I eventually decided that I was going to need to replace her. This wasn't something that I was too certain of in the days following the accident. The accident happened about one month after the order banks for the 2023 models closed, and I had already decided that a 2024 wasn't to my liking. So, the search began. I knew that I had to have the 401A package, that I wanted to go 10R80 this time after my previous two Mustangs were manuals, and narrowed my color choices down to black or grabber blue. With some other options that I knew I needed to have (3.55 gears, B&O sound system, nite package), I was able to find a few black ones within a few hours of home, but only located two grabber blue ones - each of them 7+ hours from home. After seeing the midnight blue with grabber blue stitching interior package, I knew that was another requirement if I was going to get a grabber blue one this time. One sold before I could get a deal done, and the other had just been built and was in transport to the dealership. While I won't go into details in this post, it was quite the challenge to finalize the deal on the only other grabber blue Mustang I could find that met all of my requirements. From the time of my deposit, to delivery of the vehicle, took almost one month.

Here's to making new memories and getting back to doing all the things I enjoy when it comes to making my Mustang truly mine!

Thanks!

Beautiful but we need to see that interior, too!
Thank you! I'll have to see if I can get a decent photo of it. It's like the standard black/charcoal interior; however, when you get the angle right you can see blue inside the seat perforations. And the grabber stitching really set everything off.

Sweet machine that was worth the wait.
Thank you! My daughter was going to be very upset with me if I didn't get the grabber blue. I've always liked the color but have never owned one until now.

My son wanted me to order a grabber blue gt to make up for the dark blue ride I sold but I honestly hate waiting.

Can't go wrong with the red though. Looks good on these cars!

Here are some photos of the interior package, which is called Midnight Blue with Grabber Blue Stitch. Some of the colors get washed out by the camera.

Driver's seat with blue color showing through perforations...
