Hello from Charlotte

Just saying hi. My first ca ever was a 1965 fastback. That was the start of my love of cars. Had an 88 gt. then I bought my dream car, a 2011 GT 500. Just sold it as I have a Boss 302 Leguna Seca on order. I'm told it is q3 build. I'm really hoping the order gets moved up. Any way, great to be on.

Yea, I really wasn't too keen on the color (race red) and I didn't like the fact that the rear didn't hook up all the time. And, I need something that gets better mileage. Hated to see it go, had a signed airbag cover. But I'm expecting a much more tame ride in my LS and the color has always been my first choice, yellow.

John Phillips article in March 2011 Car and Driver, found online:

"This Mustang [Boss 302] is so agile, so responsive to delicate inputs, that it makes the GT500 feel like a FedEx truck."

I like that. Welcome!
