You know your Jag is a ford right?

Atnine years old I fell in love with a brand new '70 Boss 302,
My mom worked at the dealership "Back in the day "
At 16, I got my first one, a '72 coupe,Keystone Klassics,Big 60's on the back,8-track.
On 01/16/06 we took delivery on a special order GT,this has been the most (well almost..)
FUN that I have ever had behind the wheel of a car !!
Cruz the beach,road trip,car shows.
I even took home a "Peoples Choice Award" at my first car show !!!
I like when people say "mid-life crisis ?"
I say " HELL no, I've been this way my WHOLE life"

While BMW makes some fine cars most of us can agree that nobody has ever looked at a new one, then seen the price and said "That's a good deal"!!!
The same can be said for the new XK-R Jaguar, which is styled similarly to an Aston Martin, and I'd love to own one. But those are cars I'd only get if I won the lottery!
Most folks who know the value of a dollar see the Mustang as a great deal. The fact that it has one of the best 0-60 times is another plus!
The 87 octane it runs on (instead of the premium that almost ALL sporty foriegn cars need) can save you even more$$$.

While the looks are important I don't know if that's why I like looking at everyone's Mustang, or if it's more the bloodlines of the car's past. So many cool Mustangs in so many movies, car shows, races, etc.

And while I would love some of the Infinity's options, like seat memory, I'd hate to spend $40,000 and then see 4 others just like it everyday!

Now you should build the **** out of it an blow all your ceiling nose scrapers out of the water!!!!

Time for a supercharger..................headers, suspension, proper wheels and tires, exhaust and what ever you can learn for the fine group of individuals that make up this Mustang Forum.....your Mustang is ready for MODS, sell the Jag.........sorry for venting!!!

Have fun!!!

This is probably one of the best articulated posts I have seen. Bravo to the OP.......

I too drive only 5 miles each way to work. Every morning, grinning when I leave. Drop the 12 year old gear head off at school.....comments......quick stop for a cup of coffee to go.....comments......on to work......comments.......

Very good observation by the earlier posters....This car does have Soul.....no doubt. After a rotten day at work, get out of the driveway, jump on it, catch a nasty *** second gear......The day is behind me, and all is well again......

Nice job to the OP,

Mike

I'll go for a 300 mile cruise on a Sunny Saturday and i don't even have a destination. I'm just driving her.
Of course i don't need to drive to work, i just walk down the street. So when saturday comes "I'm outa here"
I've had this car for 13 months now and i still stop, stare and smile when i park her and then look back.in her direction.

Sailing220,
I live in SD and grew up in MN, do you drive your stang during the winter? I was curious because I drove last winter unless weather prevented it. See attached picture. We are going to lower mine this summer and will be parking it this next winter. Mine is also a Tungsten grey.
