Default Excuse me while I gush about my GT

Another new member here - been lurking around for a week or so - whew, there's a LOT of great info on this site.

I've had my Tungsten Grey GT for almost three weeks now and still grin like a 12 year old when I start her up. I mean, I haven't had this much fun driving anything since I was 18 (quite awhile ago). I can already see my insurance rates climbing if I can't keep my foot out of it.

I was going to wait 'til I had my new deep dish bullitts on and put a photo in my first post, but the wheel and tire package I ordered from Bones Enterprises showed up with a 24mm offset. My bad - I just assumed that "medium offset" for the '06 meant 36mm or so. The Toyo Proxes T1R's look sweet though, and I'll mount them on the Bullitts from Mustang Tuning when they get here. I'm going with 18x9 and 18x10, with 255/45 and 285/40's.

Then I'll need to get to work on springs and exhaust and tuning and on and on..........

Yup, I'm going to have some fun with this car

Congratulations on the new car. Once you start modding you can’t stop.
Great choice on the Color. Tungsten Grey is the way to go

Congrats on your new car! I also love the look of the Tungsten Grey and I'm sure its a lot easier to keep clean and scratch free than the black. Even though I have to wash my car every week to keep it clean its always worth it to see it shine with the polished aluminum wheels. Good luck with your new car!
