That is a great reply …………… V6 Mustang owner do that get the admiration/respect that we should. We were able to see the potential in the V6, not to mention the price difference between the GT and the V6.
There is another thing that I considered, and that was Insurance.
The VIN for my V6 Pony Package is all they need to know.

Impressive letter, but it's still Motor Trend that you're talking to. They are more interested in the exotics than anything. They really don't care too much for the GT either. You can tell that by the way they called it a "bargain." Don't be surprised if you never hear anything from them.
The V6 BOSS that was on Modified Mustangs does have the WMS ram-air intake and tons of other mods. He is a frequent visitor on http://www.grabberorange.net/. All of us grabber orange owners are very proud of his work on his V6. Here's another shot of his cover on Modified Mustangs.

Nice letter Sandy!

Now, you need another one to those idiots from Top Gear.

They are always bashing US vehicles.

They TROUNCED the poor V6 mustang ragtop... The bloody idiots thought they had a 300 hp GT!

Duh!
