Thanks for the kind words! When I first heard about the IUP/MyColor delay back in Dec/Jan I immediately switched my order to the new (at the time) ISAP... I was disappointed that I wouldn't be getting the extra gauges, upgraded dash and so forth, but now that I have the car with the "plain" black dash I really do kinda like it! I'm definitely planning some small interior upgrades (already have a set of billet pedals w/ dead pedal and one of those spiffy Xenon backend smoke panels in the mail... should be here early next week). Possibly some "larger" mods to come in the future with the help of our own Kevin C... I'm currently drooling over the IUP door sills and door handles and will probably give in to temptation and order them as soon as I get my next paycheck. :-)
Axslynger
Actually the Defiant was ordered through Ford Direct, to be delivered to Northport Ford, then switched to delivery at Smithtown Ford when a friend of a friend got a job there (for all of a day, what luck was that, lol) in the used car department. He wrote up an invoice for me and placed the order (the same time I changed from IUP to ISAP) with Ford... thank goodness for that little yellow piece of paper my pop signed -- the darn thieves around here have been charging "premiums" upwards of $1,000 for the '05, GT and V6. I got my V6 Premium loaded for just over 24K in the end and I couldn't be happier. Well... I guess I could be happier if dad suddenly decided I didn't have to pay him back for the car, ha!
Sounds like a LI '05 meet-up may be in order sometime soon, a la Swingle007's in Texas! I know of at least three other '05 Stangs in the immediate area here, and about a dozen middleaged guys have come up to me and asked questions/drooled over the Defiant since I got him. They always seem so surprised when I offer to open up the car, let them sit in the driver's seat, and play with the radio... who am I kidding, I love showing off my new toy! :-)

mikem, I'm curious, I ordered 2-7-2005, what time frame did your dealer tell you? When I asked mine I said "What am I looking at, 8-12 weeks?" My salesman replied, "Nah, more like 6-10 weeks." I have x-plan and IUP too on a black GT.

Finally it's here 
, one years waiting. And snow up to the knees, have to wait another at least two month for a test drive. 
Well that gives me time for new springs and wheels, mabee some Viper stripes? And who knows what more I can come up with :scratch: .
Sorry about the spelling, I'm from Sweden

Hej Stefano
Köpt genom Exlusivecars i Sthlm, lade handpenning i feb -04, vet inget om själva importen dom har skött allt, fick bilen hemkörd till uppfarten hemma i Brunflo utanför Östersund.
Köp en tror inte du ångrar dig, den är sååå rååå.
Mvh/Lelle

lelle106,
What kind of floor do you have in the garage on the picture on the left? Is that tile? It looks great.

lelle,
Hey, that's my Silver Bullet :-) - - - Those pictures are great against the snow and the garage looks fantastic.
Curious though, what is the emblem you have just below the GT? I can't quite get it to enlarge enough to see it clearly.
Good luck with your beauty!!

I really love the pictures in the snow, they are a nice contrast.
It's also very nice to know there are folks over the big pond that also love the Mustang as much as it is here. If we can get some decent weather here in the southeastern part of PA I might be able to get the car out of the garage long enough to post a couple additional pictures.
Fair winds, Lelle
