Welcome to the site! Grew up in SoCal, but spent 15 months in Sacramento from '95-'97.

Here's another shot of my '08. GT500 wheels & tires. I had a shorty antenna that someone bent. Looking into aluminum shaft by ShaftMasters, FRPP 1" drop springs, FRPP Bullitt-style CAI, and Ford OEM tower strut brace. Really minor mods. I want to keep using it as DD.

Welcome to the site!

I'm originally from Santa Rosa, not far from you. I moved up north to Oregon for work but I'm down in the bay area often (father lives in Mill Valley, wifes best friend teaches at stanford, corporate HQ is in Petaluma), I'll be down for 4th of July and the plan is to drive my new 13 (yea, I like the 13 better than the 12...)

Hoa! Hi Chris! That's great. Wondering if Bay Area Mustang owners can get together with you. We all can meet somewhere and check each other's ride.

Yah, begin to like the '13 too. Why do you like the '13 over the '10-12's? Only thing I was having hard time getting used to on the '13 is the GT500-style front fascia. I think it belongs on the GT500's only. As I mentioned before, I really the '69 shark like front.

Anyway, enjoy your GHIG ride.

I wasn't so impressed with the 12 front, when I saw the 13 for the first time last year I thought it was the mustang for me. It took some time but I finally convinced the wife to trade in my old ride for the 13 and she agreed... I can't really explain it - it's just I knew the 13 was the car for me, and I had two colors I wanted GHIG or SB Yellow - my local ford (I'm in a total small town that doesn't get many GT's) got a boss 302 SB yellow. I was about to die as that was my dream car, but they wanted 10k over msrp, wife said NO F'n WAY bud... so I drove her by the GHIG GT and she asked how much, I told her, she said fine.... that's my story about the 13's and my new GHIG.... if we do end up coming down on the 4th (looks like work may work out for both of us) I'll post here, would love to have a lil get together the Bay Area...
