Finally got my car!

Finally got my car!
After months of searching.. and continuous arguing with insurance companies.. I found a car! I bought a 2000 Ford Mustang V6 5-Speed, 146k miles, Atlantic Blue Metallic, Tinted Windows, Hurst Shifter, Flowmaster True Dual Exhaust, CAI, Performance tune, 2 Subs and a 1000W amp.
I got a super great deal on this car and plan on doing a TON to it! So as of now I guess this is the beginning of my build thread!
Goals: (mechanical): (Since I plan on keeping this car, and buying my cousins Cobra in a couple years I want to make this in to a nice little street car/ daily driver)
Change Exhaust (SLP Loudmouth, MAC Long Tubes, Mac O/R Hpipe)
Bigger Throttle Body
New Heads
New intake manifold
Camshaft
Underdrive pulleys
and if I can somehow find the kit... a M112 Eaton supercharger adapter kit
Goals: (Appearance Wise)
Lowering Springs
Tinted lights
Mach 1 Front end kit
Blacked out decklid panels
Matte Black 18" bullit wheels
Black GT spoiler
I hope you guys enjoy watching this car "Grow up" and I hope my dad and his 06 GT and I can come to some meets with you guys!

Congrats on your Mustang! I like how you have a long build list planned ahead of you already. It should be a whole different car when you're finished with it.
What's your first mod from the build list going to be?

Definitely the bullit wheels! Right now it has some cheap $40 hubcaps from Advanced Auto because when I bought the car it just had the factory like black wheels lol.

Unfortunately I think i'm going to be selling this car. I can't seem to pick up driving a 5-speed easily and my dad is an awful teacher so I don't think i'm going anywhere. Hopefully I can pick up an auto.

What are you having difficulty with?
#8
Hills, parking, turning, quicker takeoffs (knowing where clutch point is). I can shift/downshift pretty well its just knowing when and what gear to do it all

Bullitt wheels look awesome one these New Edge Mustangs. Which finish were you thinking about?
