Finally picked up my car last night. Gene Evans Ford in Atlanta took great care of me and even takes x-plan. Talk about impressedwith the car. Two things I noticed is first how quite it is for a vert. I mean with top up at 80 it is 10 times quiter then my eclipse. Also its hard to tell how fast you are going. I was thought I was doing 65 and looked at the speedo and it said 90. woops. Had to take the foot off the gas. Still gotta get used to driving it. Talk about a sensitive clutch. Almost stalled it trying get going. Then driving through downtown Atlanta had to give everyone bad looks as they drove a little too close to my car. Oh well just happy to be part of the mustang owners club again.

Yeah, I ordered Xenon side scoops and the light bar before I bought the car. Car came in on wed but couldnt get it until Sat. Meanwhile I had a body guy come and install them so when I got there it was ready.

Very nice car, just drop the nonfunctional scoops. They look way out of place on the car. The light bar is cool though.

Hey Jason.. I'm assuming you ordered it. How long did it take from order to delivery?

OK I'm sorry What's the point of taping something fake onto this car?

One day you're gonna be flyin down the road at 120 MPH and you're gonna lose one.

Congrats...your car looks great.

Ordered my Tungsten GT from Alan Vigil, suppose to be built this week and here in Atlanta on the 29th. I can't wait.

I'm adding the CDC chin spoiler, SSE ducktail, and either a Shaker or Cali Dream hood
