You already own one........
Don't need a new car........
Really can't afford one......
And tell your significant other that this will be the last thing you EVER ask for.
And go out and buy one anyway.

When people stop asking your Son if the car he is driving is his Dad's and instead ask you, if the car you are driving is your Son's!


Maybe this should be under...."You know you're getting old when"

You know that an IUP is not a birth-control device.

When your co-workers want you to get your car more than you do. Just so you will shut the "F" about the car.

When you order your Mustang in May having never seen one before (because they aren't being built yet) and without any pricing info.

When the 125 people you work with ask you every day if you got your car yet? I can answer every question they throw at me about the car......They never want to talk about work, just the car. My wife is ready to kill me already, I can't stay off this web site or off the phone calling about my car......

When you special order the Shaker 1000 or 500 and refuse to turn it up while driving so you listen to the exhaust & engine instead!

..... you wash and wax your car the day before a big snow storm is coming


..... and you don't care about the storm because it just gives you another chance to wash and dry your baby.....

.....you waited 12 weeks for your car
Good one Your not kidding there!

The memory does honestly fade upon arrival. [/b][/quote]
only 12 weeks? Try 24 weeks from order and over 1 year from trying to place an order.

When your wife gives you the signal it's time to go to bed (wink wink) and you stay on the computer looking for ways to mod your car.

Your Family asks you politely to please talk about something else besides the car......

You start shopping far from home just so you can drive...

You start a second business just to finance mods for it........

You get frost bite and a cold from washing, drying, and detailing your car in 30 degree weather.

You squeeze in any convo that you have the 2005 GT sitting out there in the parking lot, just so you can brag.

Everyone refers to you as Mustang Sally, or Mustang Girl.

When people ask you "Is that a new 2005 Mustang?" You reply, "Are you kidding me? I could have sworn the saleman told me it was a Civic, OMG it IS a MUSTANG." (Here's your sign) or "Nope." ...just to see the confused look.

You sit at work and eye everyone that parks next to it. If they park too close you get parinoid, and can't talk right.

You set off the alarm from inside your workplace if people are looking a little too closely at it, and/or touching it.

You tell your Mustang goodnight while shutting the garage door.

You stop and admire your parked car before leaving it.

People will stop you in the middle of traffic to ask you about your car.

Even in completely stock form, everyone wants to race you.

You have a 500 watt stereo system but preffer to leave it off, so you can hear your exhaust.

When you brag about how many coats of wax you have on your car or take pictures of your reflection in a mirror like finish.
When you know everything there is to know about the car, order it when the order form first becomes available-without pricing, wait 6 months to get it, warn your dealer of issues, a somewhat know people all over the world through TMS and talk about "The Mustang." When there is an "official photographer" -Amy V6, dealers-Kevinb120, Bek335 and others that you rely on for information. NO intention on excluding anyone.

Well no one else said it that I saw, and it seemed pretty obvious.
