Default My first car!

After months of searching.. and continuous arguing with insurance companies.. I found a car! I bought a 2000 Ford Mustang V6 5-Speed, 146k miles, Atlantic Blue Metallic, Tinted Windows, Hurst Shifter, Flowmaster True Dual Exhaust, CAI, Performance tune, 2 Subs and a 1000W amp.

I got a super great deal on this car and plan on doing a TON to it! So as of now I guess this is the beginning of my build thread!

Goals: (mechanical): (Since I plan on keeping this car, and buying my cousins Cobra in a couple years I want to make this in to a nice little street car/ daily driver)

Change Exhaust (SLP Loudmouth, MAC Long Tubes, Mac O/R Hpipe)
Bigger Throttle Body
New Heads
New intake manifold
Camshaft
Underdrive pulleys
and if I can somehow find the kit... a M112 Eaton supercharger adapter kit

Goals: (Appearance Wise)
Lowering Springs
Tinted lights
Mach 1 Front end kit
Blacked out decklid panels
Matte Black 18" bullit wheels
Black GT spoiler

I hope you guys enjoy watching this car "Grow up"

First, great looking car. Second, I would just caution about putting so much in because the insurance won't be covering any of that. You'll be lucking to get much of anything if someone does much more than dent a fender. Third, take that little green trash can off the roof.

Unfortunately I think i'm going to be selling this car. I can't seem to pick up driving a 5-speed easily and my dad is an awful teacher so I don't think i'm going anywhere. Hopefully I can pick up an auto.
