Hello everyone! Forgive me if I've started another "just ordered" thread but I cannot contain my excitement for what will be my first new car. I've gone from an Escort wagon, to a Topaz sedan, to a Taurus, to a Sable, and now to an '05 Mustang. I placed the order on January 10th, hope to have it the first or second week of May, in time for a trip to Indianapolis.

Happy Motoring!
Jon

Good choice for first new car!
My first drive was a new 66 Mustang in 1966 and now in line for my last pony. Plan on keeping it forever!!

Your first new car is always a great feeling. Nothing like driving off the lot with a car under 20 miles on it.

Congrats on your order. Getting a new car is IMO the second best "first" you can have.
