Hello everybody! I got my 2010 V6 M5 coupe about 6 weeks ago after seeing one on the road and I just kinda fell for it. I went to my dealer, made the deal, and did not even take it for a test drive. The first time I drove it was when it was delivered to my house, after I had bought it. Took my first ride that day and all of a sudden i realized why people like these cars so much-it was everything I expected and more. It's like becoming a member of a cult or something when I started driving it-I have never had a car before where strangers come up to me and tell me how much they like the car.
Anyway, I totally like it and am looking forward to some modifications in short order: i had the Sriius radio installed and have ordered the Ford Racing Power Pack which should be installed in a week or so.

Welcome to the forum! Mustangs are awesome cars but buying one before driving it?!?! To me that is crazy but since you like it, it's ok

Thanks, yeah I know it might seem crazy to buy without a test drive, but I have done that with my last couple of trucks including my 2009 F150. I figure I have been around cars and trucks for long enough that I pretty much know what I want and the Mustang is everything I wanted-even my bald spot is beginning to shrink!

Too late, I ordered the Ford Racing Power Pack today. That will probably be it for mods for me. At least until I can find a way to put the 4.6 3V in my 09 F150 into the Mustang.
