Me too (just a bit!). Pick her up from the shop tomorrow, just had a Kenne Bell 2.8LC installed. She's making 650 for now, until we finish the built shortblock and turn up the boost!

No, I am still trying to decide. I really wish that the Sterling Gray Mustang had the mirror heaters, as well as the camera, but it looks like you can't have the comfort package with the Recaros. The only three options are the GT Track Pack, electronics & navigation, Recaros, and the RR sensing sys/security package. The camera would have been a whopping $214 to add to the price and it would shove me closer in that direction.
The downside to the Mustang is no back seat and my LMM Silverado is already a bit challenged in the back seat department. Also, I road trip with my brother quite a bit, and he is not really coordinated enough to pull off driving stick, which means I'll be stuck driving the whole time, every time, and with diesel at nearly a buck more than gas, I'd rather take the car. I'm starting to regret passing up on the 2011 CPO CTSV wagon for 41.4k.

Thanks for the compliments guys! I'm probably only bringing the DPS car, but we will see, maybe I'll get a wild hair and bring the Boss also.
And as someone who sold exotic cars for a couple of years, I personally don't like backup cameras. I've seen more accidents because of them than saved by them, as you don't have any perspective with them. The beepers won't ever let you down, they will always beep as you get close to something, but the camera doesn't cover the corners of the car, which is where people always bump them backing up. And the back seat isn't very big, but it's no smaller than a Camaro or Challenger. Of course the Charger will be bigger out back, but it's by no means a sports car. Buy the GT, put a barton shifter bushing ($15) in it and a Boss side exhaust setup ($700) and you'll never be happier with another car.
