I'm the same way, in fact, I'm going a different direction this year with this....




Bought it about a month ago cause I couldn't stand driving that white Civic parked next to it. And I gotta say, I've never had a luxury car before, but I'm digging this one. Only 90k, garage kept, not a scratch, dent, knick anywhere. Got it for $1500 and all it needed was a broken sway bar link fixed.

I'll get to the Mustang like you said "when I feel the need to go faster", but right now, I like quite and smooth lol.



EDIT: Sorry blue for the hijack.....

Little up date. The car went 11.78@116 for a new best in less that great DA for my area. Should be a beast In the fall when we see -1200DA.

The 95 will make it's maiden voyage in June on the new motor. 3rd times a charm as far as shops were concerned. They are finishing up the wiring and a few other things that the last shop neglected. They talked me into a few more things like a second fuel pump for just the nitrous system. And aerotech drag brakes package. The also talked me into a aluminum fabricated dash and console. But at least they are working on it.

Very impressive blue, especially that 60ft.

And glad to hear there's progress on the 95 finally. Can't wait to see those times. Good luck

Well just bolted on a set of 1 7/8 headers and an X-pipe on momma's grocery getter. Should be 11.5 as soon as I can run it in good air.

Just so you know Blue I was a little (well a lot) tipsy when I wrote that request, lol! Do you have the 95 up and running? Been to the track yet?
