Question Wheels?

Love the deep dish look in the rear. What wheels are you running?

Wow, what a difference a bit of exhaust makes. Ice seemed quite a bit louder in whine and exhaust. As for the rain, well you just have to love SoFla, where it can rain even when it's sunny out, lol.

Good luck with yours

Redfire was actually my first choice as well. I was in a black 04' and have have had blue cars before. I had a 94' "Electric Red" F-150 shortbed with a Mark III coversion kit on it and loved that truck and the color so I wanted a Redfire Stang to "Chrome" out. Only manual Stang left in the area at the end of last year was my Vista blue. Now that I have had it a year i realize my eyes will never tire of it.

You are so lucky, there were only three manuals around when I picked up mine. One was white, one was red and mine which is Satin Silver. I would have been all over a blue one. Incedentally, this one was the only 07 anywhere in Florida at the time (in manual, anyway) so far as I know. The others were 06. At the same price pretty much, I might as well have got the new year. As soon as I finish fixing up the domicile, I can start the moding. It won't be as much as you two, but just about right for me.

The only thing that's limits modding is money . I put myself in a holding pattern for around another 5 to 6 months before I do my next mods (wheels, stripes, custom tune) unless it's something small like hood pins or I see a "can't pass up deal" somewhere. Modding is like a drug, proceed with caution.

All those video views and only one comment (by me)?

You guys should go halves on a Sticky Pod and capture some real action still/video shots!

I was wondering how you did those shots Bill. The idea's are rolling. Now I just need to learn how to use a better editing program.

A Canon Powershot - not the high end one
Believe the model number is A410

You must be a professional potographer. I have the next model up and my results are not as good. Plus your car is way cooler than mine.

I just learned through trial and error man - after starting with my previous stang I realized there was alot involved with getting good shots (lighting, angle, etc...). Just a step to the left or right can make a good shot a great shot

and by the way those shots are tweaked a bit in photoshop as they came out a bit dark when I shot them - overcast days can be great but it was a bit too dark....

As for the Powershot, for $150 bucks it does take some pretty good shots

two of my favs:
