Hey folks. I got my car about 2 weeks ago, and I've been too busy driving it to post any pics!

All in all, I've been really happy with this car so far. I've gotten a LOT of compliments from people everywhere I go. A lot of people come up and beg me to sit in it saying, "This is the first one I've seen in person!"

I absolutely love the color and the spoiler delete and Bullits were definitely the way to go!

Cheers,
Juris

I love the way the bigger rotors fill up the wheels, unlike my old beloved '98 GT!

Some people negatively comment about the lack of the spoiler, but I like the clean look without it.

This car turns heads! Men, women and children come up to look at it and comment on it. A lot of people unfamiliar with the Mustang's roots think the front looks like a Jag or BMW. Most "car people" get it, though, and see the design cues from the late 60's Mustangs.

The interior is a major step up from the '98 I used to drive. It's a world of difference. I hate the position of the parking brake, but I'll put up with it for the rest. As many thought, the MyColor feature is a little gimmicky. I typically set it to Blue or Green and leave it. I can't imagine ever using 90% of the available colors. The best part of the IUP hands down is the InfoCenter. Another feature that I love with little publicity is the LUMBAR SUPPORT! I've got a bad back, so it's great to be able to adjust it to my needs. And, as you can see... I need to vacuum the carpet!

I like. Although I am with the ones who would get the spoiler. It still looks sweet. That's totally my color scheme. Nice. Congrats.

This one comes from Jenkins and Wynne in Clarksville, TN. This is my second 'stang from them.

Cheers,

Hope to see you on the roads sometime! I know of 2 others just at the airfield where I work... a Black GT and my friend's Silver GT. I know Jenkins and Wynne sold the Windveil Blue V6 to someone around here, too.

Took mine to Nashville for the first time last weekend. It REALLY turned heads there!

Cheers,
Juris

I couldn't have cared less about the MyColor, but once I had it, it makes things interesting to change colors on each fill up.

But that Lumbar Support KICKS Hiney! I was in that car for over 9 hours, and except for the stress of worrying about the car (first drive) I was fully flexible when I got home. Congrats.

Beautiful Stang Juris! You work at Sabre or the main airfield?

I have the exact same model on order, except with the other wheels. I cannot wait!

Nice car, Congrats! Looks awesome w/o spoiler......what's wrong with the pics....they look horribly pixelated. Must be your down sizing conversion.

MCGT do you live in the grove I've seen a mineral grey gt in the complex before. I'm in Nashville and ordered my GT a week ago. Looking forward to it. I got the spoiler delete, It looks really nice without it in the pics
