New mustang owner!

Hey everybody! I took delivery of my satin silver 06 GT to yesterday, so I figured I'd make a formal introduction post!

My name's Kevin, I'm 20, and I'm a brand new mustangahaulic.

A little about the car: I was originally looking to get an 03 Mach 1, but there aren't any for sale locally and I was nervous about making my first major car purchase long distance so I kept dragging my feet.

Then one day after talking multiple times with my boss and coworkers at the used car dealership I work at about how I want a mustang my boss came back from the auction with what would be my 06 GT. I thought for sure it'd be out of my price range, being 3 years newer than what I was looking for, and with only 37xxx miles, but my boss made me a great deal on it and I was able to get put a big down payment on it and finance the rest.

Pictures will be added tomorrow when I have a chance to take them.

*EDIT: pictures added at post #6

Thanks for the welcomes guys! As promised, here's some pictures:

Unfortunately we've had nothing but drizzle the last couple days, so I just washed it on my lunch break to get the road grime off and drove up the street to take a couple quick photos with my point-and-shoot camera.











Three days into owning my first mustang, my thoughts so far are that I love this car. Its just so much nicer in every way than anything I've ever owned before. My little pickup I was driving prior to this felt like it was going to fall apart at 75 MPH. This thing shrugs its shoulders at 75, and feels like it could cruse all day at 100+

Thanks! I was pretty lucky my boss made me such a good deal or I'd be waiting a few more months too. Just keep your eyes on the prize and you'll have your mustang before you know it.
