New to the club and have been enjoying my 05 GT Screaming Yellow GT Convertible 5sp. I have yet to see a GT Convertible in the San Jose area, much less a 5sp GT Conv.

Test drove on a whim and fell in love. Tried to order one, got laughed at. Found the exact car I wanted (minus air bags and active alarm) only 20 miles from my house! I was told that it was the only car like it in 12 nearby states. Believed to be the only Yellow GT 5sp Convertible in the Bay Area, CA.

Got it for MSRP. In fact other dealers told me to BUY it from the dealer for MSRP since they were buying cars from Los Angeles at MSRP and marking them up 5-7K to sell to local people. WOW!

Love the exhaust note. Hard to believe its factory.

Enjoying my new Stang,

Ed- a former M3 owner.

Nice beautiful yellow car Ed I'm partial to yellow myself as you might be able to tell (see <----- ).


This is by far the best mustang site out there, has the most information with people who are the most willing to answer your questions. If you really like yellow mustangs you can also check out: http://www.yellowmustangregistry.com/. No where near as good as this site, but an interesting niche site.

One last thing about yellow mustangs that I'll warn you about, insects love yellow. Especially when my car is clean they just gather all over it. You'll learn alot about bug sex.

Beautiful ride. I've owned 2 yellow ones now and that is my color of choice. I appeased Mama this time and have a black GT vert coming.

Awesome car... but please don't try to compare it to an M3. :nono: The M3 is in a league of its own. :worship:
