Smile New to this forum.

A BIG HELLO! to all,
I'm new to this site, and I like what I see!
A little about myself. I owned two ummm...., (how shall I put this) y'know those cars made of fibreglass w/2 seats.
(whew) that's over with. But it's time for me to move on, and I've been eyeing the new Mustang!
So I was looking for some buyers tips or advice here.
hope you all can help.
I'm thinking of a coupe in Vista blue w/ the V6
(for insurance purposes).
Questions......
1. Is the V6 good/ reliable?
2. How do you get the white stripes?
3. Are the stereos available worth getting?
OK, cheers & thanks in advance to everyone here!
WannaStang.

Right now there is 0% financing for 60 months. With a V6 you're not talking a lot of money each month, so that should allow for modifications to your liking. You need to view the threads under specific areas you desire answers. My suggestion is to search for specifics like "Shaker 500" (stereo option) or "Painted Stripes" vs "Vinyl Stripes".

I have (2) 06 GT cars and will be more than willing to communicate with you on specifics. PM me or check out my site: www.beauchampengineering.net and drop me an e-mail.

Good Luck.

The current V6 is an engine design that Ford has used for a long time.
There are many types of stripes.
I recommend either the base stereo or changing to an aftermarket one.

Welcom Don.....I have a 2007 V6 in Vista Blue. I got the Pony Package so it does have white side stripes just above the rocker panel. I also got an interior upgrade.....didn't want cloth seats. To me, leather is so much easier to maintain.
So far the Shaker 500 has served me well.
