Talking Ordered MY new Mustang !!

I finally took the plunge and ordered my new Mustang GT today
I'll be trading in my 2010 Focus and keep the 2007 Charger R/T AWD that I'm currently in the process of replacing the engine in since I blew it up a couple months ago

Going with a 2013 5.0 6-speed, cloth-seat model, with only one option: the new-for-'13 Track Package

It consists of 3.73 rear axle ratio, Brembo front brakes, performance friction pads, bigger radiator, engine oil cooler, the Torsen limited-slip rear diff from the Boss 302 and 19" rims/tires with summer tires.

Color will be Sterling Gray (the dark gray) with the black interior.


I'm freakin' stoked !!!

The Charger is getting a stock remanufactured engine as we speak ... I blew up the original one, it has low compression in one cylinder after it broke a valve spring on the other side of the engine about 2 months earlier. I'm not taking any more chances, just going back to stock with it, and keeping it as the bad-weather car, since it's AWD.

Not sure about the Brembos.

MSRP is 33,590 but I'm getting D-plan since I work for a dealership, and there's currently a $1,000 rebate, plus I'm trading in the Focus which is gonna take $12k off the price
