Finally took it out yesterday...just over 100 miles on it now. Last weekend I unwrapped and saved everything, then clayed and waxed it. I also had the windows tinted. :)

It was about the same with the Z plan as the regular GT I was going to order (minus rebates). Not bad.

It's not that....I am just about as anti car payment as one could get. I just hate car payments and won't have them at all costs. But one day I might just be tempted too much....but that will take a lot.

Your car looks fantastic Mike! So nice to see one without that totally sucking satellite antenna stuck to the trunk lid....totally ruins the car IMO. Now go have some fun with that puppy!

I just got the VIN # on my Bullitt on Thursday so now I can use the Blue Oval News forum to track my car through the factory. The dealer estimates delivery about mid-March....oh boy, it's going to be a long 6 weeks!

Thanks, Mike.

ViperPilot will hook you up on BON. :)

Make sure you get the rail car number when it ships....then you can use this link to see where it is daily.

Your car looks really nice! I love the charcoal version of those 18" wheels, they'd look sweet on a regular GT too.

The car looks realy nice. I would not mind a new one but I too hate the car payments. So much so that I paid off my Mach1 in two years when I bought it.

I had never used a clay bar on anything till I saw your post here. Ended up claying the black Dodge truck and wow....what a difference it makes. I have half of it clayed and waxed and it is looking like new again. The truck is so big though it is taking awhile. I am going to try and get it finished over the next couple of days.

Next up is the 07 GT. I think it can use it also since it sat on the dealers lot for 9 months before I brought it home.

I first tried it on the BA Blue Cobra I had (you saw it that one time). I used Zaino Bros stuff on that car after the clay and it looked PERFECT. I really couldn't believe the depth of the gloss, lack of any swirls or other marks, etc.

I was very surprised at the amount of trash in the paint on the new car. I mean, it sat outside for a day or so, then covered rail, then outside for 2 or 3 more, and then I picked it up (in the rain). The clay makes a big difference.

Clay has been around for some time. Vehicles built in the Midwest (Detroit) etc...are VERY prone to rail dust, industrial fallout and air pollution that can attack the fresh paint within days. Those covered rail cars are not covered all that well. Small metallic particles will land on the paint, moisture then causes it to breakdown (rust) and penetrate the paint surface. In severe cases, I have seen cars, white especially, literally be covered with small minute rust spots...caused by the fallout I mentioned.

Bottom line, Clay your car regularly if it is outside before waxing. Otherwise twice a year at least. It will be easier after the first time. Your paint will look brilliant for many years.

I first used it in '99, on the '98 Cobra below, with Zaino. This was back before they had a website and you could have Sal talk you through the process over the phone. :)

The pic is from '04 (when I sold it).

I swear by Zaino...it's good stuff.

You have to buy it from an authorized distributor, or now through the very-convenient website. :)
