Is there such a thing? I remember that ford put out a stripped down Mustang a while back that was called something like r -type ????, but I saw a brand new (2002-2003) black GT with a bulging hood and GT R tags on it yesterday on 64th in Surrey. He pulled up behind me and we went for a quick "catch me if you can"... I pulled on him and then hit traffic. Just wondering if this guy is for real, or if he's doing the ricer badging mods? He didn't have the spoiler like the stripped down mustang (the big downforce one) but to be honest I don't really remember because he was always behind me:cool: , and he turned off as soon as we hit a wide open spot with two lanes. (chicken sh!t):p

Didn't you hear? They made a "special edition" factory turbocharged edition. It has a rotary engine with pistons and headers. Oh and don't bother looking for a boost gauge, it doesn't have one.

The guy obviously couldn't drive if you beat him, cuz they run 11's ya know!

lol sorry man. i missed the BLACK part of the post. i even read it twice looking for a color.
the GT part doesn't nesesarily mean it was a gt though. i have seen v6's with dual exhaust and the gt bumper, and gt emblems but he still had the v6 pin strip on the sides down low and it sounded like ass.
