That's the one to get.. Track pack, 3.73, brembos, P Zero's, better radiator and trans cooler, boss torsen diff, etc..

Back seats suck for the kids though. The window is like a porthole and the legroom is minuscule.

Don't need the back seats, have the company car for that. Been driving a Roush for the last couple days, but it is the 4.6L with the supercharger (427HP).

Can you put one of these Ford Motorsports superchargers on a GT and keep your warranty?

Nevermind. You can.

Forward facing seat on the passenger side with no/small passenger is not bad, anything else is almost a no go.

I put my 2 year old behind me for a short trip in one, and he had his knees in his chest.

The only hold up I have is that it is black. I am so sick of having a black car, and I loooooove the dark blue.
