Thank you, Im very happy with her. I had one on order from a local dealer and when I saw this one I called and cancelled and drove this one home. $500 under MSRP is all I had to hear!

Luvv the color, and I am gald you gave Hilda a home; I am sure that you will take good care of her One thing, why did you not get the bullitt rims? The optional rims do not do justice to Hilda. I don't mean to rip on your rims, but why did ford even come out with those things :scratch: they are soooo not mustang, or retro for that matter. they should have released the 18 inch rims in lieu of those rims. big mistake. nonetheless, CONGRATS on your stang. thanks.

OK, what did you mean to do since it sure sounds like your "ripping" on his rims.

I actually kind of like the rims. Not the best, no worse than the flattened half-hearted bullits. Besides, everything doesn't have to be retro. It is still a modern design after all--even with all the heritage cues.

And, if you actually read the post, you would see he found it on a lot, which means he didn't order them.

TheStanger, I really didn't want the upgraded rims but since she came from dealer stock I had to take it as is. I agree that the Bullitts really do look better and I want a set. But if you've ever seen the upgraded wheels up close they really are nice looking and they kind of grow on you. But wheels will be one of my first upgrades but they will have to wait until after the holidays.

Did you end up with a manual or auto

Just noticed that you're the same one asking about the clutch issue.
