Drove it, and found out something kinda fun.

Supercharged 5.0 inhaling 50-degree air = drag radials didn't stand a chance

Yeah that's why it's NOT fun anymore for me... at 50 degree temps, drag radials start to lose their grip dangerous. I'm thinking about storing mine soon.

I washed her finally after over 2 weeks (I know, right? How dare I...).

Then hung up my JDM banner.

Some bad iphone pics I posted in IG...

Drove to get lunch. Car started to stutter during acceleration. Then a check engine light started to flash for 30-45 seconds. Drove to work a few minutes ago and now it's a solid check engine light. Great. Taking it in Monday to my friend to look at it.

Bassani

There are no new ones. They stopped along them years ago. I've spent the past 4 years looking for this one.

Nice, I remember that. I used to know all those little details about the R. I had the Catted Bassani X and Bassani catback on my 03 GT. Best sound on the 4.6 and 5.4s, IMO. Exhaust video tonight??

We should get a final drive in together before you get her put away. I finally have the Mach up here with me

Was that at a dealer? I got my azure blue 03 Mach last year with 6300 original miles on it for only $15k when they booked for about 19k. But i bought it off an older couple. Found the post on Craigslist and couldn't believe I picked it up before anyone else at that price, I felt a little like I was stealing it from them lol
