Default Another newbie here

Hi all, new member here. The first car I ever owned was a 1966 mustang from Arizona with only 64,000 original miles.

God I miss that car!

I'm buying a GT this summer, and here's a dilema:

I've searched dealer invetory far and wide, and I can't find a GT with a MANUAL transmission!!

WTF?!?!

Any advice??[8D]

Yeah, I gotta have a new one. When that new body style came out last year I just fell in love with it.

Thanks all for the replys and welcomes.

welcome, have your dealer search on his computer. i had the same problem searching myself. he got online and in 5 minutes we found just what i was looking for. it was leaving the factory going to some other dealer and he just diverted it to come here. my dealer is in a pool with 5-10 other dealers and if the car was not a special order for someone its fair game. hold out for what you want never settle.

I FOUND IT!!

NOT ONLY DID I FIND IT..........I BOUGHT IT YESTERDAY!!!

WOOT WOOT!!!

2006 GT 5spd manual, torch red w/ 18" polished chrome wheels.

I'll upload some pics as soon as I get them!!

I can't describe the feeling of getting behind the wheel of that car......then again.....

you all probably don't need an explanation because you already know!
