I have the mod bug already, I'm getting a shorty antenna tomorrow morning as well as some license plate frames and covers. The crappy thing is that my custom plates will take two months to get here GONEN6O. But tomorrow its getting clay bared, polished, and waxed as well as a mini photo shoot.

So we took it out again for a random spin for like an hour and a half. Again wow!!! At one point as I came up to a stop light, a yellow with black stripes Roush convertible rolled up beside me giving me a thumbs up. When it turned green we nailed it. I got the jump but he started reeling me in again before we shut down at around 80. I'm extremely impressed with this car still. At one point my girlfriend asked me what does the TCS button do. That was fun!

Before I took the car off of the lot, I set everything up to how I wanted (mycolor and radio settings.) My girlfriend loves it so much, she wants to get a matching 4.0 to park next to mine.
Oak Forest. A little far from Glendale Heights. Join up the Chicacoland Mustang club when ya get back.

I been trying to get my g/f to trade in her Focus for a V6 stang, lol.

Glad to see you enjoying the car.

Randall, congrats on the GT/CS! Have fun, mod as your budget allows, and keep it between the lines out there.

Welcome and Congrats! I don't usually drive over by UNLV, but if you see a Vista Blue car with quarter window vents, an unusual hood, and the plate 2DCHANC, honk.

We went out cruising today. I needed to take off the dealer plate frames and hear the exhaust a few times stirring though the gears. My girlfriend was all grins as I have a habit of blipping the throttle as I pull through a parking lot. I'm a jerk lol.

Anyways I'm getting a Viper alarm with 2way alert installed on saturday.

Here are a few pictures today. I still haven't washed it. Again, what a jerk! And I've been too lazy to yank the carmax sticker off of the trunk.

By the way, With the windows up and the radio off, I love the sound of the transmission as it whirs through heheheh.

I almost got a Redfire CS with less miles, but white is such a cool color for sports cars imo. And the black stripe looks sexy as hell. I keep looking at my cars reflection in buildings as we drive past lol.

Before I bought my 2000 Vic, I had looked at the Intrepid. If you thought the Intrepid was big and heavy, you haven't tried a Crown Vic. Although, the Crown Vic actually weighs less than the GT500 and Challenger.

re: Blipping and jerkiness.

Not a jerk. An enthusiast. I do it all the time. Love the sound. Esp when it's cold, it has a little backfire action in the pipes... probably not good for the cats though.

The cats will be removed at some point anyway right?
