Hello Everrybody
New Mustang owner located in Johns Creek/Alpharetta, GA. As the user name says a former chevrolet enthusiast that has switched teams.
In my youth, owner of Camaro's, Chevelle's, El Camino's.
Passed up an oppotunity to buy my dad's mint 45K mile '79 L82 4spd Corvette to go for practicality, reliability and power of the new generation mustang.
Just picked up an '05 GT w/ 6K miles on Monday. Can't believe how awesome this car is! I was always a closet admirer of the mid 80's 5.0's, 64-70 Mustangs, but could not stand the 94's and up - too cramped, interior looked like crap (to me - no offense intended), but Ford really did an awesome job on this car.
Anyway, will be kicking around the board looking for tips etc. Not looking to change much now and probably will not be looking at internals or superchargers - my other passion is sportbikes - so it's hard to convince the wife to drop serious money on a super charger! Maybe just a few bolt on's and some suspension stuff... Don't really know what offers the most bang for the buck with this car but interested to find out.

RE: Hello Everrybody
What kind of sportbike do you have. I had one recently, a 04 R1 and was involved in a bad accident involving a guard rail this past May. Won't be able to ride til next year so I bought a new GT to hold me over.
