Thanks for posting video and photos. Even my better half dropped what she was doing to come see this new piece of Ford art work.

Fantastic, and congrats to the new owner.

What a great experience to take it for its initial ride.

Actually sounds better than I thought it would. Will be great to hear one at full chat on the street. Today I heard a McLaren doing a run-up in 1st, and it crackled on the upshift. Pretty cool.

How about a picture of the Monroney Sticker? Data is bound to get out someday! If a Ford person doesn't release it, then a Trump person will leak it. Oh, that's right. Then we'd be dealing with false news.

That lowering and raising functionality is unreal. It's explosive when it goes back up. Turn the knob and BOOM you're up 50 mm. Pretty wild.

Idle is burly. The car sounds good. Loud too.

Oh and if you want to try out the seating position in low mode, just sit on the floor wherever you are. That's close.

One thing I have to say is that it cracked me up when I saw some YouTubers ragging the interior as cheap. Almost everything in that cockpit is a one off. The three HVAC knobs, the PRNDL dial, the knobs on the steering wheel...it's all milled/anodized aluminum. For *$#*# sake even the cupholders are! Paddle shifters - same. Dash trim - aluminum. The start button is a beautiful anodized piece that has text that glows. Structural carbon everywhere. This car has a carbon door that has a freaking number in it! I don't what materials these dudes are familiar with if they think that stuff is anything less than comically expensive.

Anyhow, great day. Congrats to the Ford guys that put this thing together. It's insanity.

Now the long grueling wait until mine gets here. :ack

Geez, how about the rest of us! I thought it was great to wait till 2018 for the updates/changes but now I'm saying now! So cool though. I can't wait to see your secret color!
