Well, thats my new ride. Before this it was a 2000 Lincoln LS V6. I haven't owned a Mustang before this 2011, but I did learn to drive stick on my friend's 2002 3.8L. Which we both agree was the best car for a 15 year old to learn to drive on. That thing had a throw like our friend's pick-up. It wasn't all that powerful, but we did have some fun.
My favorite car of all time is a 1970 Boss 302 in Grabber Blue, and with the new Boss - I think I know what my next car will be. Driving a Mustang, any Mustang, in this modern muscle car era is something to be proud of. I know I am. LONG LIVE FORD MOTOR COMPANY!!!!

I think I have seen one of those on the stealerships lot.
Time to mod it and make it your own instead of the mass produced look.
Just a thought.

Oh, I will. Plans now are minor. CAI, window louvers on all rear glass starting with the sides.Tinted windows. And a rear spoiler. In no order other than tint before louvers. Future plans include wheels and tires, suspension, new gearing, exhaust, and either the CDC chin spoiler or the factory California Special. If I have the money and the desire, a turbo would be nice. I figure if Noble can TT a 3L Duratec to 425hp, a 3.7 should be good for 400.

Oh yeah, a full size spare would be nice. That little compressor is useless.

Nice ride! Welcome to the forum

Really love that kona blue, such a gorgeous color. For a while I wondered if I'd end up with Kona and white striping
