Daughters new 1999 Mustang
I'm a hard core GM fan, so when my daughter was in the market for a car, the last thing on our minds was a Mustang. She does not even like them. When the salesman came out and told us she didn't qualify for the car she wanted due to her income and the fact that she had virtually no credit we were very disappointed. The salesman then proceeded to tell us that she did qualify for a 1999 Mustang if the "old man" would co-sign. She didn't even want to look at it and I definily did not want to co-sign for a "Ford" let alone a Mustang!
As you could have quessed, the salesman talked us into looking at it. We were standing in the parking lot when they brought it around and my eyes fell out of my head. You must realize that I grew up owning two '69's (an RS and a Z28) and a '70 Camaro and and currently own a 'vette. I have never liked the Mustang body style with a few exceptions, the Shelbys and the brand new ones.
This car blew me away. It has a perfect black paint job with a rear deck spoiler and, I have to admit, it is stunning! It is a five speed with a 3.8L v6 and has plenty of power for her. Although I'm already formulating a plan to drop a V8 into it whe I get it. Oh yeah, it WILL be mine when she is ready for something newer. I can't believe I'm saying this! Anyway, I'm glad I found a forum like this because I'm sure I'm going to have plenty of questions and things to talk about.
By the way, it started to snow while we were at the dealers and the car is currently cover in six inches of new snow, otherwise I would have some pics for my post.
