Default New pony owner in Phoenix, AZ

So, I am Trey. When I was 16 years old (in 1985) I was at work and my dad called to tell me he just bought me my first car, and to come home to see it. I rode my bike the 1 mile home in record speed to find my dad in the driveway by a BEAUTIFUL 1967 red mustang convertible. I almost started to cry yelling "thank you SO much I love you".... He said "oh this? This is my new car your car is in the garage" he then opened the garage to show a 1970 VW beat up yellow bug..... Ever since that day I have wanted and dreamed of owning a convertible mustang.

That dream came true yesterday when I got a deal of a lifetime on a 2010 black GT convertible. I traded in my 2010 Ford Fusion for a great price and am now riding in style.

I look forward to reading your posts and getting to know you. If you are in Phoenix say hi! maybe we can meet up.

Welcome to both of you, glad you joined.

Aztrey, did you ever pay your Dad back for being a trickster?

Congrats on the purchase! I was real close to pulling the trigger on 2010 base GT, but decided on a 2013 premium. When I am driving hard, I wish I got the GT. Other times when I am just cruising around I am glad I went with the premium.

I am also in the Phoenix area. Post up some pics and keep us updated with the mods. The first thing I would do is get some lowering springs. The stock ride height is horrendous. Send me a PM, I know a guy that will throw them on pretty cheap at his shop if you are interested.

I was going to lower my V6, put painted rocker panels on it, put gt front and rear fascia, and a few other cosmetic mods. shouldhavekeptthev6.

I think what I learned most is that brand recognition is a very bad thing. I could have swapped my mustang for a different brand of car and I would be like adios!

btw driving hard isn't fun at all. it is work, effort.. and it sucks.
