Default FORD CONVERT!

Hey, Dan here. Bought my 07 GT back in May on my birthday and am loving every minute of it! I have been an import guy for a long time due to the American manufacturers letting me down with quality and style. The S197 has changed that perception! My sister got hers back in January and I thought she was loosing her mind. She owned a pristine 03 SVT Focus previously and then got the Mustang as a return gift upon coming home from Iraq for hopefully the last time. Like I said, I havent been too kean on the American vehicles for some time and, working with and having driven every exotic there is, I became a fan of Porsche and M3's (not that they have a big reliability record) and drive a very dependable 95 Toyota Tacoma with 225,000miles and the same, never leaking, motor! Well, she took me for a test drive... If there is any American car out there that has the feel of a 911... the Mustang is it! I instantly fell in love with this car and had to find out more. I am now the proud owner of an 07 GT in Tungsten Grey. I have done a couple of slight mods with TEIN 2" drop coils, 20" F5 rims, the upper billet came with the car, and a B&M Shortshift kit. Future plans call for the Maximum Motorsports caster/camber plates and adjustable panhard bar to correct for the drop, an WMS ram air intake with larger MAF and the Saleen inverted supercharger (if I can get over the rotor noise). Still loving this toy every day and always finding reasons to make a run! Any other converts out there?

Congratulations! I'm glad you decided to come over from the darkside. You probably won't ever leave again. You won't be able to get the sound of your mustang exhaust out of your head.
