Alas, I have been without her for a week now and dying to get it back. Figure 1 more week left and then I have to put a quick 500 mile break-in on the motor then back for 3 days of tuning. Definitely under the gun cause I have the summit series pro class race 3 and 4 on 28th and 29th. I'm going to burn one of my dial-ins to squeeze to see what it does and we're going to video and I'll post vids at end of the month.

I was half way there in just my audio/video/Nav system. Over 6000 I in don't have a supercharger yet. Still cheaper then a vette.

Boy ain't that the truth. I'm still just under the price of a Z06 and kill a stock one.

It is funny how these "stock rocks" guys are even posting here at this site. I didn't do anything for a year, then I dropped 3500$ in a month. There are too many stock stangs on the road. Just looking like everyone else was not why I bought the car. I swear I pass two stock GT redfires everyday. Mineral grey vert, a yellow salen and a roush once in awhile. Plus the sheer number of V6's everywhere. I couldn't take it any more. Had to do it. The guy who posted the "Frankenstang" comment I am not even going to waste my time looking up the name. Why are you even online posting this site? Everything you'll need to know is in your Ford Manual. Almost everyone in the country is running stock stangs. The few, the proud, the modders, that's what you find here. Yes, everyone here is modding. This is a very small sample of total mustangs produced and sold in 2005-2006.

OOPS! Sorry for stepping on so many toes, no insult was ever intended. I've seen a few Frankenstang pics here..... sorry but lambo doors and Cylon inspired engines are not what comes to mind when I think of a Mustang. I don't want to start another LEJAY war. I must have missed the rules of the forum dictating that you have to mod to participate here (Mustang Forums). I apologize to all those offended by stock Mustangs. I thought this forum was intended to allow Mustang (of all kinds) owners communicate and share their love of the greatest American Muscle car ever built. Read my origional post in this section, JMO = Just My Opinion, everyone is entitled to their own. Sorry if you don't agree with mine, Im certain there are many on both sides. As the proud owner of three Mustangs (currently own - 96 V6 Vert, 02 V6 coupe and 06 GT), I've put my share of $$$$ into the Ford Motor Company. If you want to mod your Mustang to make it yours, have a blast, be proud of it, it's your car (as stated in my origional post). When I see another Mustang, thats what I see... another Mustang. Perhaps I've been around long enough to know, it's not what you drive that makes the man (or woman, don't want to leave out a good chunk of Mustang owners here). Nuff said.

Probably about $1700 or so here. Mostly just little stuff (Shorty Antenna, Redline Tuning QuickLift kit, hood pins). The CDC Shaker (750), Diablo Sport (360) and Hurst Shifter (180) were the big ones for me so far.

Not sure if I am going to go suspension/exhaust next or painted stripes and CDC Classic Chin spoiler

Hmm.. Is Lojack a mod?.. If so, then I need to add another $800 onto my list for the early warning system.
