Default Got It

Finally got my 05 and had to show it to someone who cares, everyone at work is jealous and telling me how impractical it is. Someone asked me today when I was going to grow up, don't want to grow up yet. Just a big kid still with better toys. Besides the back seat is big enough for the kids.

I'm pretty impressed with the power the V6 has. I live in Colorado, took it for a ride in the mountians loaded with 4 people, got up to about 9000 ft and didn't find a grade I couldn't top a 80 +. Very nice for the money. I think the only mods I'm interested in making is dual exhaust.

I haven't been this excited about a car sinse I was 16. Check out the pics at the link below.

Hey, welcome to the gang. I also have a legend lime V6 in Colorado Springs. I'm loving it, and don't regret getting the GT for a minute.

I've already had duals done. I got it done at Meineke on N. Academy. They did an excellent job. You can check out the pics here.

Very nice, you'll love it more as time goes by. Of course I love the Lime. I got a few of the "impractical" things at work too. I always just ask what they drive and then roll my eyes in a very exaggerated way.

I'm working on the duals right now, half done. Tres Wright posted an excellent how-to thread in this section for adding the factory GT take off's which can be had cheaply on e-bay.

Enjoy!

Very nice, welcome to the forum! I'm with Badash though, you can't see the Mustang for the trees.
