Default Hey, New guy in San Antonio, Tx

Hi hows it going y'all? ... See thats how you know i've been in texas to long when i start typing y'all. Damn my poor grammar.

Well, like the title says new guy in San Antonio, Tx with a Competition Orange 04 Mach 1 Mustang. Stole it from Florida for a decent price, drove it all the way back. And no not a fun drive lol

When the car was purchased i was actually looking for a bullitt, but being a poor student on a budget i searched ebay for a compromise. Shes been beaten pretty bad, seats are torn and cracked, paint chips here and there, vinyl slowly coming off.

The mach was equipped with a BBK off road x pipe, and flowmaster super 44 exhaust. It was loud, a little to loud for a daily driver. I ended up replacing the flowmasters for magnaflows to give a smoother more controlled sound, and since chambered mufflers don't get along to well with x pipes and all.

Next slapped on a jlt ram air intake with a tune from americanmuscle. was running great!

Until i decided to mess with it, now i need to fix the leak in the mufflers... opps.

Since owning it I received a ticket for speeding in Florida, then in san antonio an exhibition of speed and acceleration... still waiting to settle this ticket.

But yeah I;m the orange mach driving around san antonio, to my knowledge im the only orange mach in the area.
