Fastred,

I was at the dealer just yesterday looking and test driving the exact same car you have(but with black interior), red candy, brembo, 6 speed, 3.73. The salesman mentioned to me about the paint scarcity and I though he was just making a sales pitch. That color combo you have is very nice. And nice photography too. Too bad, I won't be ready to get a new car until later this year.

From what I've heard, candy red is one of the japan shortage pigments and may not be offered as a color any more or for much longer. I'm not sure about the validity of that but if it is true, it could make these candy red 2012's very short in numbers.


Anyways, after the steeda sport springs (and koni adjustable shocks/struts) the stance is so much nicer now. (and the ride quality is still outstanding)

Red Candy is being replaced by a Red Candy with a different paint code so it should be fine to order.

Great looking car!!

Are you positive about this? I plan to get a red candy GT towards the end of the year.

Yes, 100% positive. For Job 2, Lava Red is being replaced by Sterling Grey, Kona Blue is being replaced by Sonic Blue and Red Candy is being replaced by Red Candy. Look at the third chart here:

Do you have anymore unedited pictures? Like you, I play with Lightroom too and would like to play with the unedited version if you don't mind. I have decided to wait until the 2013 shows up. I'd like to see what Ford will be doing for the last model year for this car.

I currently drive a 2003 BMW 540 sport which is also the last model year for this particular model.
