Exactly what I want (except with spoiler delete).

Absolutely beautiful - especially with those wheels.

Enjoy!

LOOOVE the color and rims. You got it right. The rims truly accentuate the car. I still cannot understand what ford was smoking when they designed the optional rims. They just don't look right, and don't look mustang to me (i don't care much for the tires either). My intention is not to offend anyone. But come on. Do you think your car would look as sweet as it does with the optional rims?? Someone please answer this question

Well, I was going for Sonic Blue but now......


Nice Stang!
Is Sonic Blue too much of a trendy color??? Will it look as good in a few years or will it end up like Teal???? Just wondering.... :scratch:

That car looks awesome. Sonic Blue is what I call a "Quirky Color". Basically, I believe that the longevity of the color isn't real good. This car needs an available dark or navy blue color, I believe with that color, bullits, and beige interior would be an awesome combo.

Awesome combo

The only thing grossly upsetting is that hideous dealer tag. I would be all over them if they did that to my car and demand a new bumpercover.

Now that you've been enjoying your pony for a while, what do you think of . . .

1 - suspension?

2 - steering?

3 - acceleration?

4 - noise levels in cabin?

5 - controls and switches?

6 - seating?

7 - stereo (which unit and quality)?

Those of us who must still wait would love to know!

Nice ride.

I would worry about the neighbor with the pink car though.

Awesome car. That's the combo I want except that I would like to see how it would look with ICAP. I really like the color accent but haven't seen it with redfire. A dealer close by had one but it sold the first day before I could go check it out.

I am still getting use to the car, my miles have been limited due to time constraints :bang: (and bad weather). But my experience so far has been .

1 suspension - seems to handle very well and has a fairly comfortable ride compare to some vehicles I have driven

2 steering -still getting use to it, and haven't had enough time to "really try it out", but seems tight and allows you to position the car where you want it

3 acceleration -FUN, no substitute for a V-8 on earth!

4 noise levels in cabin -you hear the music (engine) when accelerating, and it dies down when cruising. It is not quiet car (engine and road noise), but I wasn't expecting, nor wanting quiet, so I enjoy it. Actually the reason I ordered the Shaker 500 instead of 1000 was to hear the car

5 controls and switches -I cann't find any fault with so far. Somewhat minimalist, but I like how it works with the car

6 seating -I am still adjusting to find the ideal, but with so many adjustments available I don't think I am going to have any problems

7 stereo (see # 4) Shaker 500 for the reasons listed above. I really haven't had the radio on very much, but I tried everything to make sure it works. Home burned CD had some skipping, but all commercial stuff seems to work fine so far. It sounded pretty good to me when I did listen to it.

Overall- , now I have to be patient for Spring :bang:

The wait is worth it!

That first pic is at a great angle - I think these car look best with the nose down some. If I had one I may consider playing with tire size a bit to get the nose down maybe an extra inch or two.
