Default Another newbie

Hello all,

I am a first time owner of a Mustang. I bought a 2001 with a V6. After driving it I am sorry that I have missed out on driving one for the 15 years that I have been driving. I have always driven imports, Honda, Toyota, and I just traded a BMW 325i for the Mustang. I absolutley love the car. Best car that I have ever driven.

I would have liked to have bought a GT but could not justify the car payment and the insurance. Actually the insurance is what killed the GT for me. I have a clean driving record and no accidents, 30 years old and still the insurance would be $110 a month for the GT. Oh well, I shall wait. I love what I have though and will maybe do a few minor mods.

Anyway glad to finally have one.

Steve

welcome to the boards. yeah the GT's are more fun, but, theres a couple people on here w/ v6's that might give my 5.0 a REAL good run if not beat me. so, you can do work to 'em. but, welcome aboard. have fun.

Believe me if there was someway I could make it work and get the insurance $30 lower a month I would get the V8[]. Mine is in the shop right now getting the window adjusted and they gave me a GT to drive around and I am about to pee myself[sm=icon_rock.gif]. That GT is a blast! Someday I will have one.

welcome, gt's are sweet but there are definitely some mods that can make your v6 have more attitude
