Just me and Sally

Howdy, folks. My current pony is a 2011 premium V6 I've named Sally, though sadly she lacks the performance version of that package. Still has plenty of spirit, though. I've also owned a 1994 V6 brand new off the lot, along with a '96 V6 that I picked up cheap many years later. I miss the manual trans that my first two had, but I couldn't pass on the price/miles combo when I found her a couple of years ago.

Some recent side gigs have allowed me to fix Sally up with upgraded lights all around and give her a cold air intake, hood lifts, and front strut bar so far. The end goal is to turn her into lil Miss Mayhem down the road.

Visiting the USS Yorktown last year.

My wife enjoys riding along when I take Sally out. Looking forward to the front strut bar that's supposed to come in today, too.

New pics



Added that sweet GT500 spoiler to replace the tiny OEM fin.

Pulled the rear decklid panel, now have to wait for the new emblem with ring to come in.

Thanks for sharing the updated pics.. Really like the GT500 spoiler and projector headlight upgrades, as they both improve the appearance of "Sally" with more of an aggressive profile

Final upgrade for now

Thank you!

Thank you! CIA, hood lifts, BOSS 302 front strut bar. Not shown is the throttle controller I installed last week, which has really helped the responsiveness of the throttle for minimal cost. That's all for the moment but thinking ported intakes and a larger throttlebody, then upgrade the exhaust and maybe get a tune (if I can find proof those upgrades warrant one, of course) are the next few ventures.
