I would've loved to have found one. But unless someone left an Easter Egg in a body panel or something, no. The article makes me want to continue to double-check every nook and cranny each time I'm in the car.

That's pretty cool.

Wished I had one in my glove box, today after the UPR Oil catch can install this afternoon, I finally took my car for a ride, wow, what a car, and that I am truly enjoying the car a lot!!
Tomorrow I might go for a car ride since it is going to be sunny at around 54 degrees before the winter hits here for hibernation of my vehicle. Never like taking the car out in the salty roads! The salty roads might hit pretty soon! My Shadow Black Dark Horse will be hibernating with some hay!
Lol! Have a great Christmas in the up coming days! Take care, Jesus is the reason for all things that are happening cuz He loves us all that nobody can on earth! Look nigh into the heavens for His Glory appearing soon! Merry Christmas to you all!

If you got your letter in your glove box, please share it with us all by taking a snapshot of the letter!!!

Steeda employee who got the letter. Still cool, but not as random as the article makes it LOL.

Yes, I’m a world-class cynic.

But this warm and fuzzy note thing kinda caps off my feeling all along that while the two cars are similar, the S650 is clearly targeted at a totally different demographic than was the S550. Its focus seems to be on a much younger, kinder, gentler, and not so hard core audience. This IMO is why Ford never hesitated to lock down the ECU on the car; most of the buyers don’t care or maybe don’t even know. But they got a feel-good note and that’s probably more important than it might have been to the average S550 buyer.

You have mis-judged the S650 buyers. Many or most of us were or are S550 owners. Hard core ones at that. Nothing has changed. LOL

They left this little plastic bit loose on my passenger seat to let me know they were there!

I can just about Guarantee it’ll NEVER happen to your average Mustang enthusiast. We just have to pray the car comes out with the gaps correct and no paint defects. But hey, it’s good PR and few are going to bother to find out it’s a Steeda car or who Steeda is.

Back in the 60’ an Elderly Lady had a Chevy Impala with a Rattle in one of the doors.
Mechanics drove the car & couldn’t find the Rattle.
So they decided to take the door panel off..
There was an impact wrench in side the door.
There was a NOTE.
It said,HOW LONG DID IT TAKE TO FIND THIS?
The spokesman at Burt Chevrolet said the employee at GM was fired, but who really knows?
Someone got a good impact wrench.

No thank you note in my glovebox :(

I’m a little bit embarrassed to mention this.
I purchased a new Ford Fiesta.
I looked in the Glove Box and found a Yellow piece of paper, stuffed behind & barely visible.
It was a repair order for all the damage the delivery driver did.
I checked out the Roof and I was able to peel off sheets of plastic expoxy.
I took it back to the dealership and they Repainted the entire car.
I kept it almost a year and purchased a new 1980 Mustang-4- Speed.
Lesson learned.
Always double check the Vehicle before you drive it off the lot!

I followed my '15 F150 Platinum through trim, chassis, and final at DTP as it was being assembled. Took about 100 pics and half a dozen videos. When I sold the truck, I put all of that on a DVD and stuck it in the glovebox with a note. Hope the next owners appreciated it!

Feel better now?
