Info on Summit MKIV???

Just going through email and got one from FFR that shows a MKIV that was built in conjunction with Summit.
2012 SEMA Preparation Under Way, Big Surprises Planned | Factory Five Racing

Anyone seen any more about this car? I'm mostly trying to find out what the color is, but I'd like to see more pics of the car too.

I saw it at FFR when I visited there a few weeks ago. It's a beautiful silver with red stripes; quite a striking combination and the Coyote in it sounds incredible. They fired it up and moved it just after I arrived; someone mentioned it getting ready to be delivered (to Summit, I guess).

Not according to one of the guys at FFR - we were a few aisles away when it fired up and he said something about how nice the Coyote sounded. I had to agree... whatever was in it sounded fantastic.

Absolutely right!

Here's a couple pictures of of the engine ... and of the completed car .... taken shortly after completion while still at SKJ Customs here in St George.

Gray with red stripes ... beautiful and fast ... and built in record time!

I can probably get specific color information if anyone wants it.

Look for it at SEMA ... not sure which booth (FFR, Summit, Ford or ???) just yet.

Not surprisingly, they used the Summit 2 stage paint. The primary color is Killer gray metallic (my new choice) . I didn't catch the name of the red, but I think its in the second link I posted.

Still haven't seen the name of the red color. Super nice combo now high on my possible list. Anyone have the red name?
