Default New to domestics from Atlanta, GA

Hello everyone, I've been reading around on these forums for the past few weeks now and finally joined now that I have my car. I acquired a 2009 Mustang GT Premium with quite a few options listed here. I was in the market for a 2010 but I just couldnt pass up the 09 cuz of the price and the options the car had. A similarly spec'd 2010 was running me 34OTD this ran me 27OTD.

I'm new to the world of domestics especially RWD V8's. I grew up in Detroit and have wanted a GT since I was 17 and finally got one. My previous car 2008 Audi A3 2.0T was totalled out due to flood damage from the recent rains out here in Atlanta. Unfortunately in the year and 10 days that I owned it I didnt do anything to that car other than a reflash. Prior to that I had a 2003 Corolla that I had put a lot of work into. It had full suspension, TRD supercharger, I/H/E, tune and misc interior upgrades.

I have some plans for the GT but I'm not sure where to start. I'll be searching around the forums so I dont ask too many "n00b" questions and am looking for all the help I can get.

Cheers,
Rish

Lowering is a safe place to start, seems every Mustang rolls off the line with the offroad package

Getting bit by the mod bug isn't difficult either. The first time I sat in my GT, I thought, OMG! I LOVE IT! But there's nothing fun I can do to it!

WRONG! I just ordered a bunch of crap today... sneaking around while my husband is four states away antelope hunting. Bwahahahah.
