Anyone here? I saw a red SVT with a carbon fiber hood and an unusual rear spoiler in grey primer tonight. It was about 6:15 PM.

I didn't spend much time looking at the back so my first impression was that it looked like a spoiler in primer, not a carbon fiber trunk with it's included spoiler.
It's always fun to see another SVT, especially a red one.

Sorry to interupt (sp?) this T-Red love fest, but you both better be coming out for the cruise on the 22nd! Just, uh.... look down in the forum.

With the exception of late SVT front struts, the suspension is stock. It is stock height. If anything, it is a 1/4" or so (or less) higher than stock due to the 225/50ZR16 tires.
I did have a suitcase in the trunk. I was on my way back from the Burbank airport where I had a flight cancelled due to an equipment problem.
