Hey guys,

I am a newbie here, on a few other forums though. I currently have a base 12 GT in Sterling Gray. This is my 3rd Mustang. I love it. I haven't done too much to it, billet grille, Koni STR.T and Steeda ultra Lites, Hood Spears, Bodd shift knob, CDC chin spoiler, and just put some GT500 Axle Backs on it today. The guy I got them from told me about this site. I would love to throw a tune but am hesitant after reading some of the horror stories of warranties getting axed over them. I may still do it though, I had tunes on my last 2 mustangs, an 06 and a 10 and they never had any problems at all. I also hope to add some new wheels next summer. Anyhoo, here she is.

Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.

Welcome.
Thanks guys! I look forward to getting to know some of you guys on here.

JDBishopArts,

Apparently due to the tsunami in Japan a while back, Ford, and many other car makers who got pigments from there had issues with their orders. So they brought Sterling Gray and Sonic Blue back as late production colors, Job 2 I think.

It's an inside joke. I had a fella tell me at Kellers one night that my car wasn't a 2012 because Sterling Grey wasn't available. I told it was and he didn't beleive me.

Welcome to the board.
