Default 15 year hiatus

I used to own a 1979 Mustang 5.0 Cobra back in the mid 90s - what a fun car for a 16 year old kid. Since then I've had my share of sporty cars but no V8's until now and its good to be back!

Somehow I was under the impression that Ford sucked but with the new 2011 Mustang GT being so new-tech I couldn't divert my eyes. After some researching - I found that Ford had been making a comeback for some time now... I can't remember the last time I had a good ol' American car. I love this new Mustang GT it's outstanding - coming from a BMW 135i, I think that's saying a lot.

I got the GT Premium with Brembo etc etc (its in my signature), the car handles REALLY well - I mean easily competing with excellent euro-handling, and the interior is actually pretty great - wtf?! I can't believe how much car I got for the price I paid!

Anyway, my infatuated $0.02... My name is Aaron and I love a Ford.
