My twin found me -- 2024 GT Grabber Blue

[The Ghost]

From the looks, you have a well optioned GT premium. Someone ordered it with the brembo brakes package which is nice. I wonder if you have the 3.55 gears too or the standard 3.15s..?

I tried like hell to find a grabber blue GT premium with 3.55s and brembos and active exhaust. There were only 2 grabber blue GT premiums in all of Arizona. One had Brembos and one didn't. Both had 3.55 gears and active exhaust. The dealer with the Brembo car low balled my trade and wouldn't budge an inch so I walked.

I ended up getting the 2nd one that same day. It worked out because, the second one had just got marked down 3k and they gave me more 3k more for trade. So the decision between saving 6k plus tax and not getting brembos was an easy one. Got plenty left over to add them aftermarket if I still want to.

Brembos are cool, but certainly NOT worth $6K. You definitely came out on top!

Interesting, the 401A package is what we get standard. I'm quite impressed with our spec. Someone at Ford NZ knew what people would want.

Oh, since you are from New Zealand, you have the Premium, 401A and Performance pack as standard.

Just look at your GT badge on the trunk. It says performance on it in small letters.

Yep, I found that on the badge, but wasn't sure about the 401A. Our dealers don't seem very knowledgeable.

I think because you guys overseas have different spec Mustangs. It's not called 401A over there because there is no 401A options.

The overseas Mustangs have different options than the US that come standard. That's why the 401A is not known there.

I just found my window sticker yesterday if it helps

I don't yet have a window sticker. Hopefully when I do it, clears up the confusion. But just looking at your sticker concerns me more lol. Don't see "BP with active exhaust discount" on your options/packages list

I almost got grabber blue but went with vapor blue instead, grabber was just too bright for me

Late to the party. @FishPerson I think in this case I like the silver wheels. Dark color wheels are good, but I think they need to be accompanied by other dark accents. Probably better a night pony package.

Blue Ember was out because i dont like the appearance package interior,

Finally I don't feel so alone

That's the beauty of ordering, if one is patient enough to wait. You can get exactly what you want. I've gotten more patient as I've gotten older, so ordering works for me. Plus, I ordered last October, knowing it wouldn't matter if it didn't show up till spring; I wasn't going to drive it anyway. I too, have Grabber Blue. I'm a fan of blue cars. Vapor might have been my second choice. As far as dirty wheels--there are a lot of good wheel cleaners out there; they make keeping wheels clean easier. And, depending on the finish on your wheels, there are some products out there that do help repel brake dust to a degree. I know; I lived with brake dust for years with the BMWs I owned.

When I looked at the colour chart. I didn't like Grabber Blue much. But when we went to the dealers other branch and saw it in the metal, we were sold. Especially SWIMBO (she who must be obeyed), she told me "no more grey cars".
And, it does get lots of 'love the colour' comments.

Well, patience pays off the other way as well. There are plenty of new 2024 GT premiums on dealer lots being discounted under 50k right now.

So true. Grabber blue was never even on my radar until I saw it in person. Then it became my top color. I passed on a smoking good deal for a Cyber Grey car because of it just seemed boring by comparison.

Yup. My dealer has 2 at $47K and 2 at $46K. Keeping with the Grabber Blue theme, he has one GT Prem discounted 9k in Grabber Blue. With the 2025 prices in question, it pays to look at the 24's right NOW! (before it's too late)

 

[AZ_Ryan]

Finally gave her a proper detail today! Man, this color keeps getting better. The Metallic in the sun is pretty cool.

That blue is outstanding, can't wait to do the same to mine, even though it doesn't show dirt, but on the back you can really see it.
