Last night, almost on a whim, I became a 2005 Mustang Convertable V6 owner.

I've been an Audi guy since 2001 with a TT Roadster, and then an A4 Cabriolet but my A4 became a warranty trip a week and I decided to bail on it, and the Mustang fit very well what I was looking for.

Found a '05 Premium V6 that has the Shaker 1000 and the aluminium dash/color changing gauges. Sitting in that reminded me of my high school friends 64 1/2's dash and the color change thing is pretty fun I'll have to tinker with it.

No pictures of it yet, it was 10PM & just starting to storm by the time I got it home last night.

OK, no longer black, now it's Legend Lime Green. When I took it back to sign they had one of those and I like that color much better. Lost the shaker 1000 for a 500 but I won't miss the two subs. Got antilock breaks and lost the side airbags but I'll take it.

Oh noes. []

Black is the bestest...

But either way, you'll still stand out.
