New from California!

Hey everyone! My name's Nick. I got my first Mustang back towards the end of July.

I got a '12 V6 premium with the Pony Package in Kona Blue with the silver stripe and black leather. So far all I've done to it is put on an Airaid CAI, tuned with a Bama custom street tune (305 HP just wasn't quite enough ), and swapped out the stock mufflers with the 40 series from Flowmaster. My next and final "mod" will be to tint the windows.

I've grown up around Fords my entire life. Leased a '08 and '10 Fusion for my first two cars and was able to pay for them myself. My dad has worked for the same owners at a couple of their dealerships for 28 years and is currently the operations manager at their Ford/Lincoln store. Being from a Ford/Lincoln family, my dream was to get a Mustang someday. I got a job at the same dealership as a salesman and worked there for 2 years, until recently to concentrate on college. Saved up enough money and got my dream car a bit early with a little help from D-plan and my father co-signing.

Anyway, here she is, and I'll post a video soon of a few revs (she sounds great with the aftermarket mufflers and the tune).

Arroyo Grande, on the central coast. I'm about an hour north of Santa Barbara and 20 minutes south of San Luis Obispo.
