There's some more info being leaked out about the 'possible' mod list for the car, not sure how accurate it is:
- Lower crank pulley swap
- JLT intake (123MM)
- Ford Racing Throttle Body (65MM)
- ARH Long-Tube Headers (Catless, Stock axleback though)
- 4.10 Gears
- Bigs and littles
- 2012 GT500 brake swap to support wheel sizes
- Tuned
I almost went down to the track rental that they were running at today, a few of my friends were there.

So as not to bring some other Mustand thread back from the dead.
Saw my first 2013 in person last night (was a basic V6). Lots of poeple do not like the fron and rear. I will have to disagree.
The new black panel and taillights - look great
The new GT-500 style front end - looked good
Kona Blue - really nice
If I was in the market, I would be very tempted (Partucularly at GT-500/ZL1 level)

I was looking for Focus ST info today and saw a few Mustangs... 2013 blue is apparently called Depp Impact Blue and it resembles Sonic Blue which is still nicer by a bit(to me and available on the Focus). I'm really considering the Focus lately, as I'm having to drive 300miles a week for my folks. I was looking at a Titanium and the salesman who accosted....er... approached nicely... told me I could get it for a bit under sticker. If I can get it for under 22k, I think I might. It's not gonna touch the GT500 by any means, but it will get nearly double the mileage and cost about 1/3rd as much.

Heh... I just saw my earnings statement... I'll be waiting another month from the looks. 
At this point, I'm not sure what's going on and I'm not making any remotely large purchase unless my accounts are correct(which the main account isn't) to the best of my knowledge. SUCKS, actually... 2 straight months there's been a problem, so I'll be spending time today and tomorrow(I'm sure) trying to get everything straight. 
Maybe the next will be correct and then I'll buy the car, or at least go get more familiar with the ST.
