The tungsten silver looks great - and I think it would amazing with blue shelby stripes.

i'm not a fan of the 18" wheels. to tell you the truth, i don't think there's a rim out there that looks better than the regular bullitts that came with the 05GT
 
Late availability means the option will probably be available in the second half of the production year, so after Jan '06. This can happen for a number of reasons, including:

The wheel supplier may not be fully tooled to meet production.
The wheel may not have the proper certifications or completed the proper tests to be placed on a production vehicle.
There could be an overstock in the carry-over wheel.
There could be a committment from Ford to the supplier to purchase a large volume of the carry-over wheel and that volume hasn't been met yet.
The new wheel could be very expensive to Ford, so there will be a limited production run, so they delay the availability of that option.

Basic supply and demand type stuff.
 
Back for the '03 model year, the "late availability" for the Bright wheel option turned out to be Oct 7th, the same date for the IUP and the original date for the Mach 1. It doesn't necessarily mean the Job 2 date, about 1/2 through the model year.
