I put my bias down, because Ford has built a great car with the S197. The motor isn't bad compared to the LS1, but the rest of the car is a lot better than I remember my old 00' TA ever being. It just rides a lot better on the road, and actually feels like a good ol' sports/muscle car. Oh and the sound, I'll admit the Mustang has always sounded better

I bought the one I test drove. Which is a 2006 Yellow Mustang GT 5 spd, with 10,800 miles on the odometer. Now I just have this long list of mods to do and research for the car. I believe the first two things on the list are a shifter(MGW) and give it a healthy sound (loudmouth). Then I need to do something about all this yellow. I really do like the yellow mustang look, but I feel like a little black here and there would help even the look out.

Edit: Oh yeah, and HI
lol

Don't worry, the yellow will grow on you. It did for me.

Welcome, good choice on the car. Some black wheels would really set it off.
