Well, I can't really afford one right now anyway, but that doesn't stop me from looking. I've sat in a torch red with IUP and ICAP but I've been wanting to see Redfire with this interior. A dealer 40 miles from where I live has been showing one on forddirect but every time I call they don't have it yet. A few minutes ago, I get a call from my parents that if I drive down to the highway, it's headed my way on a car hauler. After hanging up on my mom and dragging my kids barefoot to my truck, we set out. After about 2minutes of waiting I spotted the car hauler coming down the road. Me and my 3 and 5 year old were all screaming and cheering as it goes by. After I finally was able to get out in the traffic I sped down the road to catch him. Took me a good 5 miles but I eventually caught up and got a better look as we drove alongside. I started to hold up traffic and eventually had to turn around and go home. Hopefully I'll get to go see it at the dealer tomorrow and get pics, maybe even a test drive I hope . Sorry for all the rambling but I've been waiting weeks for this to show up at the dealer so I could see it and I'm pretty excited. It's pretty cool that I got to see it before the dealer.

Same problem here sort of dealer, near me shows one on ford direct for couple of weeks now but no car in stock, but they are going to call when it comes in I am thinking of trying to get it he said it would not be marked up , we will see.

Yeah, I don't think this guy will mark it up, but he won't sell at X-plan either and truth be known, I probably couldn't get it if he would. I'll probably have to wait a year, but man I can't wait to go see it. Hopefully, I'll have an early day at work tomorrow.

Thats a cool story. Your kids will probably always remember it and will grow up Mustang fans!
Hope you get a test drive. Good Luck to you!!

Thanks Donna. It's hard to imagine that my kids could grow up not being mustang fans. They will have my '65 Fastback one day because it will never leave the family. I bought it when I was 14 and I'll never sell it. My poor kids don't stand a chance. Mustang posters hanging in the garage, etc. They'd be scared to ever ask for a camaro.
