Your not alone. I traded my 2012 4LT GS vert with only 1100 miles in on my 60th Anniversary 427.
The 427 is so much more car than my GS, theres really no comparison. It has quickly become one of the all time favorite cars I have ever owned.

Brian,
Think we just traded pm emails---living in Indiana I strongly recommend you get the splash guards we discussed as you will have sand, rocks and debris on your roads like we do here in MA. Anyway, can I ask you for a favor-----could you please measure where your 60th side emblems are and let us know. A few have purchased these and now the trick is figuring out where they go (dealers aren't much help). How far down from the crown in the curve above them? Are they at an angle---one end being lower than the other---or are they following the angle of the curve? How far "in" from the vent? Maybe use the points at the ends as the measuring point. Thanks for any light you can shed on this.

on an artic white 427 vert from Boardwalk. So far a great experience with Tim. It will be another couple of weeks before the car arrives in Georgia. I will post pictures then. I needed this car like I needed a hole in my head. My 2011 GS vert has less than 2000 miles.
Really looking forward to getting behind the wheel of this one.
