Default Its here.. my new 2006 Mustang GT Premium!

I am now a proud new owner of a 2006 Mustang GT!! All i can say is that this car is a blast to drive and I can't wait to start modding it. I've had the car for about a month now and have been cruising around the forum for a while so I have a good idea about where to start.

I've already purchased the Borla Stingers so they should be here in a couple of days. I just hope that there isn't too much drone, but that seems to be the price you pay when you want your car to sound mean.

here are some pics of my new ride!!!

Congrats and welcome to MF. Your going to love the Borla Stingers. Since you have a black car i would seriously consider joining a detail forum and learning the proper way to keep that car clean and looking goood.

Here is one I belong to. Great people great advice.

That is so beautiful. I came close to buying a black on black GT convert - but after spending the last four years working hard to keep that deep gloss on a black car, I chose semi-retirement and went with Tungsten gray.

Hmmm, but there's nothing better than looking at the reflections in the hood after getting that black all polished up.

i don't care what these guys say about their tungsten grey etc....i think you made the right choice.....mine is exactly the same...in fact, did you steal my car? i looks like you've had it tinted too.

I've had mine for about two weeks and love it, still cannot believe how much better the gas mileage is compared to my old 1994 GT.

Most people don't realise that although black is hard to keep clean it is the easiest to repair. The dealership I used to work at had an independent body shop fix cars that were dinged or scratched before delivery, if the car was black it was repainted in a matter of hours-very easy to blend black, entire hoods rear quarters doors etc would only cost about 300. max. Silvers reds and blues were more difficult to match. I'd get either black or silver.(but I like red fire too!) Just don't hesitate to buy a black car because you think scratches etc will show up, they are very easy to repaint.

Yeah I had the windows tinted too.. limo tint on the back 3 and 20% on the front two. I really like the look and when I move to Arizona in 3 weeks it will save me from the heat.
