My GT Performance Edition (GTPE) delivered!

[jennq]

Thanks for sharing. What do you think about the trim on the seats? I really was hoping to get the copper and not sure why they did something different on the PE

The trim is still there, but it’s a bit more subtle than the copper on the GT. I think it depends on your style. I’m personally really happy with the more understated look. It feels special without being quite as loud.

Very cool! Would love to hear your impressions about the handling after some canyon runs. Can she dance?

This is killer. It seems like DMG looks dark gray in the sun and black in the shade. I’m excited for mine! Thank you for the additional pics of DMG.

Here are a few more pictures now that there’s daylight

Congrats! Love the color in the shade. A little lighter than I like in the sun like grabber blue. Your pics of the seats look way better than what we have seen this far. They look fancy instead of weird.

My thought exactly. Dark Matter Grey is pretty dark, but I like that it’s deceptive.

I’m particularly pleased that it hides the “grill” as well as it does. I much preferred the standard Mach E snout that is body color. DMG effectively accomplishes that.

Hmm it is almost like a body color faux CF grill effect. Best of both GT and non-GT worlds. Never thought of it like that. Me likes!!!

Thanks for the great pics! Those are best interior pics of the GTPE I’ve seen so far. I think the bright daylight helps, thanks again!

I got a chance to drive for about an hour without the wife and kids on some nice roads this morning. Some elevation changes, plenty of twists, and some nice patches of California live oaks, a beautiful drive.

I took a few passes on the road to gain confidence in the car and learn the road a bit, as well as try it out in both engaged and unbridled.

it really didn’t take me long to gain confidence in the car, it just felt so sure footed. I can feel that the car is on the heavier side, but it manages it so well, the steering is quick and precise. Tapping the go pedal was quite rewarding, and would break things juuust enough loose to put a smile on your face. I’m still babying it a little bit.

I never felt the car to be “bouncy,” but I wasn’t driving in boring straight lines, or maybe that’s the magneride absorbing the road properly.

This car wants to stretch its legs, no matter how fast you’re going. That’s all I’ll say about that. ?

The only minor complaint that I have right now is how the shoulder bolsters land on my back. They slightly push them forward instead of cradling them, but I think I am still dialing in the seating position. The fixed headrest is not a problem.

I’m probably going to be spending all the money I save on gas on new tires.

Hey OP, I live near you in Anaheim Hills. Wondering what dealership you went through and also how you convinced them to not drill the license plate frame into the front bumper. Thanks for posting the pics - I have the same color on a regular GT which was just built this week.

Crap..this is my biggest concern. How tall/big are you?

I purchased from Autonation in Tustin. Sean was in contact with me throughout the process, moreso as my delivery approached. I pestered him constantly about not putting on the front plates. He gave me a call when it was in detailing just before delivery so I had an opportunity to remind him that I’d prefer not to have them attached.
