I'm thinking about 5 years down the road, I'll have my ride paid for by then, use as trade, plus about 10k saved up...

Get a GT convertible (with depreciation, should be hovering around the 10-12k mark)...
Use the 10 G's to update the paint..
refurbish the engine..
add additional 200 ponies..
one up the sound system..
upgrade the wheels and suspension!

Should have something that looks pretty darn good, and pushing 500+ HP/Torque.

Just need to have patience...

Well I'm Leaning toward a Sonic Blue Premium GT, With IUP, Shaker1000, Grey Leather or Possibly DarkCharcoal (If I go with Dark Charcoal I'll Get Cloth, as I'm Gonna Get Aftermarket Grey Leather Seats and Have the Door and Quarter Trim Inserts Done in Grey) with the Bullit Wheels, and the Active Alarm.

I'm going to have wait for more info on the next cobra. I'm hoping and praying it's not going to be ridiculously overpriced but if it is, I will opt for the SE. After owning a GT already, I want to stand out from the rest of the crowd.

BTW Tampabear, that looks sick! I could imagine how many looks that would get w/ Sonic Blue.

I have on order a:

GT premium
redfire exterior
parchment interior (It looks like I'm the only one going with this)
concept style wheels
IUP
Shaker 500
5 spd manual
spoiler delete
safety option package (side airbags, alarm, etc.)

Mods:

tint the windows (medium tint)
swap out for the 18" tire and wheel package when they are available; I'll probably have to sell the original 17's or hope the dealer can work with me on this.
Any other mods will be wait and see.

Reality:
GT Coupe
RedFire
18" Chrome Fanblade wheels (if they ever return)
Satin-finish aluminum dash
Red-on-Black leather Interior
Black Lower grill insert
Automatic (to heck with manly, this is a daily gridlocker)
IUP
Shaker 1000 Audio
Anti-theft

Fantasy:
Get a cheap v6 Body-in-White from the plant (body with a painting/priming error that is scrapped instead of repainted).
Spend the real money on sending out for a New Cammer 5.0L and the GT-R package from Ford Racing.
Alittle construction time, some screaming orange paint, and PRESTO, tI got an excuse to get my road racing liscense from the SCCA.

Satin Silver GT with IUP/Red Interior. 5spd, Bullit rims, Shaker 1000

Future Mods:
Lowering springs (I think the car will sit a little higher in Prod. trim),
18" Rims,
Dark Shadow Gray Lemans Stripes,
Engine Cover (Please somebody make this available?)

In short, I want the car to look like what we were 1st shown at the car shows.

Black GT Deluxe (leather is suicide in FL), automatic tranny, light graphite, IUP, Shaker 500, rear window louvers, darker tinting (not quite limo), the standard bullit wheels, K&N intake and filters, pulley kit, performance chip, and of course a Gator tag. I've pieced this pic together for an idea.

If in the city (ex: Baltimore) w/ only one licensed driver for that car... Some where north of $6k annually for full coverage...

At age 19, I bought a '94 GT when they first come out; the car was in my dad's name and on his Erie Insurance policy w/ me as an occasional(sp?) driver... It was over $8k a year -2xs more than what I was paying for the car.

When I was 17, I drove a 93 mazda 626 with a v6 and my insurance was $4000/year with full coverage on that, my dad's explorer, and mom's millenia. South Florida

Now I am in Mass/New York, with an 01 focus and 22 years old and my insurance is down to $1400/year. Graduating from college resulted in immediatly dropping my insurance a grand...

Put me down for:

GT
Automatic
redfire
leather interior
spoiler delete

If possible, base stereo system. I'll remove it and replace it with a CD/MP3/DVD and a pop-up LCD screen so I can watch Lord of the Rings in the SDSU parking lot.

And I'll probably mod the exhaust to make it a bit louder. I want to scare little children with it.

Personalized plate "BOOGYMAN" [/b][/quote]
Thanks for that, sajawebb.

I was thinking CAVTROLL or BALROG or something like that. I live in a condo complex where the kids just stand in the street right in front of you as you drive through as if you're not even there. I'm thinking if they're just a little worried that my car might EAT THEM they might move!

Oh, and I forgot a couple of features on my ride: black louvers on the back. And dark bullitts. My wife is SO gonna kill me!
