Default Finally...My first car!

Finally! I closed the deal today...

1999 Mustang GT Coupe
Chrome Yellow
Black Leather
Mach 460
69,000 miles
Flowmasters and BBK X-pipe

And of course, it's a 5-speed. Everything is in excellent shape and the 140 mile trip back home in it was fantastic. Now I actually feel like a member of the forums as opposed to a future owner.



More to come!

- Glen

I'm hoping to get a radar detector (a must), then a short throw shifter (another must)...after that, maybe lowering springs and gears. But we'll see!

NOICE DUDE

i've been hearing about all these cars you've tried out and now you own one.

Looking back I would have gotten a new edge, but I'm content with my SN95... I got big plans anyway

Have fun with it!

Okay...So today, during a quick little blast down a country road, I threw it into 2nd instead of 4th. Has anybody ever had that problem when quickly shifting? Because of this, a shortshifter is near the top of my list for a modification to make shifting more firm and easier; I need to make that T-45 last as long as I can!
