MUSTANG FIRSTS!!
Since I'm still pretty new to Mustang ownership, I wanted to ask everyone if they remember some of their firsts.
I got my '05 4.0 a little over a month ago and right away I realized life was going to be different. Not that it was that long ago, but I remember the first time an Eclipse tried to 'intimidate' me at a stoplight...lol, the first time a carfull of girls drove past me screaming, the first time I spent about 5 hours detailing, the first time I left a big cloud of smoke behind me, the first time I noticed a chip in the paint (yeah, already) and I could go on...
Anyone have any good 'first' stories?
I gotta load my stats and a pic pretty soon. My 'Marilyn' is a white '05 4.0 with silver racing stripes and the black "MUSTANG" stripes at the bottom of the doors. She's beautiful! $#!T, who am I kidding.... they're ALL beautiful! Mine's totally stock still, but that won't last long. I just got my Flo-Pro Twister muffler and I can't wait to put it on. And as soon as the checkbook allows for me to buy more stuff, IT'S ON!!!!

RE: MUSTANG FIRSTS!!
Major first for me, First car I ever bought without seeing it first! A banker friend of mine
called me while I was 300 miles from home and asked if I was interested in his mustang.
1370 miles, IUP, the works....White in color, With black "Mustang Stripe" on the side. I said YES
and my wife went and signed the papers and drove her home. I did'nt see the car for 2 days....
Man that was hell ! ! ! But boy when I did get home, You could'nt wipe the smile from my face
for days. Still in love after nearly a year, But I did remove the black side stripe in anticipation
of some near future paint work.

RE: MUSTANG FIRSTS!!
I like the chin spoiler. I was thinking about one of those too. I think it looks really good against the white paint job. Which one is that?

RE: MUSTANG FIRSTS!!
This is the first car I've ever done any sort of performance mods to. First car I've gone 115+ in. First car I've raced at the track. First car, since my '68 coupe, I've received so many compliments, waves, stares, excited jumps, conversations in.

RE: MUSTANG FIRSTS!!
First car to have so many people just randomly come up to you and start talking, First time i was ever in a store and someone yelled out loud "who's blue mustang is that outside" just so he could come up to me and talk about it lol. First car to drive by a bunch of highschool girls stop yelling "car wash" and stare right at me and say "i love your car!" lol well, it definatly attracts alot of attention. Oh and first car to ever supercharge
