My 5.0 came in tonight (crappy cell phone pics included)
Ok so tonight I hopped out of the shower after a bike ride and I had gotten a call from my dealer. My salesman said my car had been unloaded off the truck and to come by and take a look. I went down and it was beautiful!!! I could actually see it from the freeway off-ramp when I was driving up and I almost crashed into a big rig LOL. I got all the paper work done and just need to go to my bank tomorrow to get the check and she's all mine.
I apologize for the super crappy cell phone pics. My cell phone sucks and it was getting dark out by the time I got there. I will have my friend (photo major) take some better ones in the near future.
There was another guy there who had been waited for months on his SHO to come in and his car came in with mine. That SHO was
Also my salesman was really cool about the whole process. He took a $500 deposit but never cashed the check. He also posted a sign on the car instructing the service department to not mount the front plate. Then he went one step further and took the bracket out of the trunk LOL. I recommend him for anyone in SoCal. His name is John Reid (951) 312-7006 Citrus Motors

My first mods will be minor appearance stuff, 401a shifter. Then I'm gonna give it time for real world results to come out and I'll start with CAI, exhaust, and lowering....

Congrats!!!!!!!!!! I like the look of that glass roof, too. Just a thought.........consider the Roush O/R axle-back instead of the FRPP for the new 5.0 - you won't be disappointed. Let's see some better pics tomorrow!

That reminds me of my mother Jason. She saw my dad looking at a new 1981 Lincoln back in the day and she wrecked the 1979 Cougar she was driving into the vehicle in front of her. He heard the whole thing happen just a couple of hundred feet in front of him. The very vehicle he was negotiating the trade on.
He still bought her the car, but she still hears about it to this day.

Thats good he never lets her forget lol. Yeah at the last second I realized that a red light means you need to brake and come to a complete stop
Don't worry its comin bro! Our cars were built together
