Ok, that's all I have for now. Let me just say... I truely had doubts about the color going into this purchase, but I can honestly say that I totally in love with the Vista Blue. This car is perfect as far as I'm concerned. I have a great dealer and I've never been happier with a car in my life.

Funny side note is that when I got the car, as I was driving home, all I could think about was I've gotta post some pictures on TMS asap. I know how I've been hanging on every post here for almost a year. I would keep looking at everyone's new Mustang as they get them and show them off on here. Sure helped me pass the waiting time for sure.

Fantastic looking car! Love those wheels.

I had a similar experience when I got my sonic blue GT almost a year ago. I was looking for a red fire GT, but found a deal on a sonic blue and decided to get it without having actually seeing it in person. When I picked it up at the dealer, I was blown away by the color, and have been very happy since.

Enjoy!

That looks great!

I like the Vista Blue, it's a little like the Atlantic Blue on my '98 but more vivid!

Thanks! The wheels were the clincher for me. I seriously doubt that I would've even gone to look at the car if it had stock or upgraded 17" rims. Blue was just not really on my mind, I had ordered the stock 17" bullits on the Redfire, so I could've just waited for my car to get here on Dec 6th. But when my salesgirl told me it had 18s, it peaked my interest. Then she said, "And these aren't like any of the other 18s we've gotten before." That's all it took, I got them to hammer out a price with me, pending my approval of the color, and then left work early to go check it out. When I pulled into the lot and saw it, it was love at first sight. That was the first time I had seen Vista Blue in person, I loved it. For that matter, I'm not sure that there are many Sonic Blue ones around my city either. I think I've only seen 1 or 2 since then new body style. I can't speak for Sonic, but the Vista looks unreal at night IMO.

Back to Redfire for a second. When Dan posted those pictures of his with the Fanblades back like 4-5 months ago, I fell instantly in love with his car. That thing is amazing, and that is what had re-enforced my desire to have that combo. I'm not the kinda guy that will do any mods at all, so his car fit the bill looks wise to me. It's the same with the combo I actually bought. I can't even begin to say how happy I am.

I think you definately picked an amazing combo yourself. The car looks great! And Vista is one nice colour Thanks for the pics as I'm sure many people with cars on order are wondering how the bullitts look.

You're really going to enjoy this car It must have been a long wait

Congratulations again,
Dan

I think they are 18x8.5. At least that's what I have had in my mind as the size of both the fanblade and bullits.

Someone asked about the dealer selling under invoice. The car I originally ordered was at invoice. The only difference in this car option wise was the 18" wheels and wheel locks, so bottom line is I offered them to split the difference from invoice to invoice price. It went back and forth then they made a offer I could live with. Keep in mind that I really didn't know if I would even like Vista Blue at point, so I was fully prepared to walk away from this if I couldn't get it closer the cost of what I had ordered already.

Wow. The 18" bullitts look amazing. Congratulations on you car. Great looking combination.

I'm torn now between purchasing the 18" fanblades or 18" bullitts for my '05 redfire GT.
