Default Hello from Seattle/Sacramento!

Hey everyone,

First American motorized vehicles I've owned! I've owned European and Japanese motorcycles, cars, and trucks. While looking to buy an older M3, I discovered the performance and reliability of the Mustang. One thing led to another and I test drove a base GT. I saw deal that I couldn't resist and came home with it the very next day. The Ruby Red S550 wasn't popular and sat on their lot over 30 days so I got it under invoice.

For now, plans for modifications are only Tomtop to reliance the Sync 1, paint the diffuser satin black, and maybe red or black leather seats(sticky butt in Sacramento heat...). My last car was a modified WRX that was awesome in snow, but this is a different kind of awesome for daily use.

Little 4th of July project. Looks finished now! I question the durability of this paint, so we'll just have to wait and see!

Got a set of Husky floor liners. I like it more than my old Weathertech.

How is the car optioned? That's a gorgeous color, I can't imagine it not being popular one way or the other. Glad it worked out for you though. Take em when you can get um!

Drive Safe,
Steve R.

It's a base GT. The options are wheels and interior (19 in wheel as you see, and the carpet/floor mats have the Mustang logo), and Ruby Red. I want Sync 3 potentially in the future.
