New member with first Mustang from chicagoland area

Hey guys! I am new to this site and to Mustangs but I am an old school american muscle guy that has owned many Trans Am's and Camaro's dating back to the 80's (yes I am that old).

I was recently trying to purchase a 2001 Firehawk but found financing an old vehicle impossible so I took a look at Mustangs and Challengers (Camaro SS is still to pricey for me).

I found a sweet deal on a 2007 Mustang GT manual with 35K on the clock. It's mint inside and out. The previous owner put the mods I have in the sig in it as well as really sweet looking black rims. I got the car for 14.5K which according to KBB is 3.5K under fair retail and 4.5K under fair retail according to cars guru.

I love the car so far. Very solid ride, clutch feels good and it chirps second gear like an angry bird. I hope to get some great modding tips on this site and I'm happy to be here.
