    I got my reminder message yesterday as well. Not sure if I am going to resubmit or not, I think the odds will be much lower this time with many more people applying.

    love the gray/orange combo.

    is this different from the competition package or...? I've seen a million pics online of this car in the last 24 hours but can't find a description for what the carbon edition is.

    Agreed, but I am not a celebrity and do not currently own a FGT, so I don't have those going for me. I will probably resubmit. Maybe since I have 4 Fords now instead of 3 when I submitted last time will push me over the top..... LOL!

    Replaces the Competition Series. Due to federal regulations on back-up cameras and a few other tings the Competition got axed. Carbon Series retains A/C and radio as where Competition had nothing and the singular carbon fiber stripe.

    I got my e-mail as well, and have prepared a document showing my love of cars from age 13 on, with photo's from back then. From slot car racing a 1/32nd Cox Ford GT in 1966, to being in the pits at Green Valley Raceway with the Amalie Racing Oil Team Mustang. Decided a 1 minute video was too short to do me any good. I will be logging in on the minute I can.

    Hoping existing GT owner's get preferential treatment when the final 600 get chosen.

    Can you order those extras on a regular car? Exhaust and rear hatch?

    Vented rear hatch, carbon fiber stripes and the accented optional stripe, mirrors and brake calipers are exclusive to Carbon Series. Everything else, titanium exhaust, etc are upgrade options on the “standard” car. I am almost surprised though that no aftermarket company has tried to produce a similar vented rear hatch yet.

    Should’ve of taken the money and ran at a Mecum Monterey. Ending bid was $1.6M?, I believe. That was all the money on the best day for that car. Guess that’s what happen you buy it for $1.8M looking to flip.

    The website is up today, and I added a few photos to my application.

    It's open to everyone, and I believe closes December 1st. You will receive word during the first quarter of 2019.

    Very hopeful to get into the final 600.

    After not being able to decide on a spec for several months, I ordered the Carbon Series in the exact same spec (Leadfoot Grey with carbon stripe and orange accents) as the SEMA show car. Deposit paid (50% due on order finalization) now waiting for confirmation on build and delivery date.

    Yep, me too.

    I will be sure to put fresh wheels on before passing it on to the kids though

    This is a nice video of two Heritage deliveries in Europe in case you have not seen.

    I saw one of these live today. It was parallel parked on the street. WOW! It is a great looking car! Very edgy but not to the point of looking over done.

    With the Pista, the GT2RS, the Performante Spyder and the newest Ferrari about to debut I’m surprised anyone entertains this stupid **** that Ford is making people go through for a car that’s already been eclipsed in performance and technology. I have a 2005 FGT and love the car but kissing Fords butt and creating a dumb home movie of you doing it is just retarded.

    As always just my opinion.
