I watched eBay for a month or two, looking for a console with the factory lighting option installed. The install is explained in detail within this thread....

I think eBay has a console now for about $130

Just picked up my 12 year old daughter from school. I only just bought this car on Friday. I went from a '92 Nissan to a '11 Pony Convertible, so it was fun seeing some of the kids jaws on the floor.

Its 16 degrees C out there (60.8 F)- perfect convertible weather, no?

No videos, no 180mph at the Mile. Brake rotor cracked. It's been one hell of a bad week. Sorry to disappoint. Hoping to have another run in March, maybe everything will be functioning correctly by then.

Sorry to hear about that Matt. Maybe it's fate telling you to work on the car over the winter and get ready for spring!

Yep. Having both front rotors replaced and I'm pulling the entire wheel assembly on both sides to check for warping.

I'll be spending quite a bit of time on it over the winter. Kenne bell goes on at the end of the year, and the front end is in the process of several upgrades.

I know it's getting cold where you guys are most at right now; so sharing with you shots of my stang in tropical Philippines! (though it was pretty cloudy today so the lighting on the car could be way better with clear skies!)

Today I came across a 2015 and decided to try and take a few comparison pics to my 08'. First I've seen in person. They said it came in yesterday.


My wife made an interesting comment as we pulled up to it. "That's the new mustang? Man that's a sexy looking car, but it doesn't really look like a mustang."

Personally I think it looks better in person than in pics, and I can see mustang styling cues all over the car, but just like with my 08 the front is not my favorite part of the car.

Still hanging on to driving her. This week is the last week. Then she's stored. Drove her 2 times in the last 2 weeks, both on short errands. Here's a couple bad iphone pics.

Took mine out for a rip along with my buddy and his new GTR. then hit the gym. We only had about 2 hours between the lifting of the morning fog and the return of the fog this evening lol. Clear skies overnight mean thick heavy fog all weekend.

I added my Silver Mustang Registry sticker to the front bumper cover under the right headlight. I have my Mustangs of Massachusetts sticker under the left headlight.

Before I had the rear quarter louvers on the car, I had it on the left hand side quarter window. I didn't replace it until now. I got the smaller pony version.
