Default Hello MustangForums.com

I'm an 18 year old Computer Consultant/Web Designer. I purchased my first car about three weeks ago. A 98 Mustang manual 3.8l V6 for $2,800. It's got 94k miles on it and in good condition inside and out. Week after I got it I parked it in a ditch from drifting around the block. Thank god It was muddy and didn't cause hardly any damage to the body. I've already ordered aftermarket headlights and a CAI. I plan on ordering an exhaust system also, but I haven't quite decided on what I should get yet. I would like the exhaust to be non-visible, face down, giving me performance as well as sound. Anyone have any ideas on where I can buy something like that online? I hear that a Nitrous Kit would be the best bang for my buck. I would also like to get a tuner for it... as you can see, I've already fallen into the trap of endless upgrades, I suppose. All Im trying to do is to boost my satisfaction in the car, despite the fact that its not a V8. I'll be hanging around every once and a while learning as much as I can and sharing my experiences with the forum. I'm looking forward to it. Here are some pictures:

Uhm... Unfortunately yes, that was a cop. I got a ticket for careless operation and have a court date in a few months. Hopefully I can get it off the insurance by taking the defensive driving school as its only my first known offence. Luckily I didn't have to pay for towing though, the cop allowed my friend to pull me out in his jeep.
