Thumbs up New guy here from Florida

Hello everyone. I just bought a new 2018 Mustang GT (Orange Fury) 10spd Automatic on Thursday and so glad to be back in a Mustang, I havent owned one in over 5 years, I test drove this Mustang I bought and was shocked as to how fast this Mustang is with the 10spd automatic.

One of the last Mustangs I had was a 2007 Mustang GT Premium which i bought new in California, it was Grabber Orange and I lost that car in my divorce in 2011. I have never loved a Mustang as much as that one so with this Orange Fury I got pretty close as to what I had before. Im blessed to have it.

Welcome to the site. We purchased a 2018 base GT a few weeks ago (Race Red). Our most recent Mustang purchase before this one was a 2011 V-6. Very different! Loving it so far!

Your V6 had about the same HP as my 2007 4.6 GT, this Coyote motor has some serious power.

Welcome to TMS. You will love that 10R80 trans. I also have a 2018 Mustang GT 10 speed in Ruby Red. Do you have any photos of your new Mustang you can post?

Here ya go. These 2 are from the day I bought it at the dealer. So not very good. I dont like that dinky rear spoiler. I plan on getting a GT350 style as long as I dont have to drill holes.

I really like that color. If my dealer had had one in stock I would have purchased it. Just curious which rear axle ratio do you have. Stock 3.15 or the optional 3.55? I see you have the black accent package too.

The rear end has the 3:15, Yeah it has the black accent package and black roof, that really sets off this color, Now Im just looking at getting the GT350 rear spoiler in black from AM and getting rid of this dinky one from Ford, they could have did better than that.
