Come to think of it, there isn't much I DIDN'T order!

Mods soon to follow - it's one quick pony as it is, eh?

The help I've received on this forum has been fantastic. Thanks to all.

(And you film buffs may recognize that this is the spot where Clark Griswold took delivery of the Wagon Queen Family Truckster. It's now Star Ford in Glendale, CA.)
Alright Paul. I'm warning you. This car is too much fun to drive. Congrads on a sweet ride..

Thanks Amigo. The discounts are on! $1200 under MSRP plus a $1000 rebate!

That's funny...I was seriously tempted by the Alloy. I'm just too much of a clean freak to own such a dark color, but I think the Mustang looks great in darker colors. The Tungsten was sort of a compromise.

I can't help but notice anyone who just got their new S-197(especially us over 45) has a smile that make us look or feel 25 years younger.Congrats!

You got that right! I've been wanting to order a "new" muscle car since about 1964.

I've owned a nice 5.0 LX for the past 18 years, but there is nothing like ordering a new car exactly the way you want.

These cars are great! There is nothing else within $10,000 that can touch 'em.
