Default Let me say Hi

Hey everyone, my names Brandon. I'm from new Jersey and looking at Mustangs. I'm 21 and just graduated from school, and started work so now I have the money to afford one. It's the one car I've always loved, and despite everyone telling me its a bad idea ( I work in a high end car dealership) I can't say no. It's the one car that makes me giggle like a school girl. I test drove a G35 the other night, as nice as it was it just didn't do much. So I test drove a GT coupe tonight and loved it. I'm looking to get an 07 GT Convertible (manual obviously). I just need to review my financial standing and plan to order it in the next few weeks. The salesman told me if ordered in f\Feb., I can expect it in May (sound right?)

Anyway, I thought I would introduce myself since i'll probably be around here more often. Not sure if anyone posts on Ferrarichat, but i'm over there as well. If you have any recommendations, please let me know. I hope to get to know you all.

Love my mustang.. ordered it without even taking one for a test drive.. only dislike is the ***-end sits so high.. backing up is a lil difficult.. other than that, sitting in traffic on the turnpike, i always get a few looks and thumbs up!

Sorry, there's nothing wrong with an automatic. I've been driving an auto. civic for 5 years, and i'm sick of it.

I'm looking at the Alloy Metallic (i love that color) on the upgraded interior with the Red/Black. Haven't seen it in person but i love the color online. I would really like to see it in person, does anyone have it or have an opinion on it that may change my mind. pics. may help. Possibly the Cali. package, hood scoop which i didnt' like online but looks good in person. And I have my list but don't have time to state them all now.

Oh, I want the 3:55 gears. The salesmen said it helps in the top end as well as gas mileage (is this part true?)

NICE!!! Do you have any of the interior alone. different angles would help me. I was afraid it may look weird on anything but black, but it doesn't appear to.

I dont think they offer the red any more. I have black coupe w/ the red leather: i always hear; "did it come from the factory like that?"
