That's my Vista Blue GT which is expected to arrive in my driveway in Central New York on April 17, not so very coincidentally for Mustang's 43rd "birthday". It was built on March 29 and went through the gate the next day. Charcoal Premier Trim, GT Appearance, Comfort Group, 17" aluminum wheels. And "Cruise-O-Matic".


I've been waiting many years to buy myself a Mustang.

Thanks, guys. I work for the auto transport company that serves my Ford dealership and I am bringing an Explorer there today. Supposedly the Mustang is set for arrival in the afternoon. Maybe I can get some pictures of it coming off the truck.

This is only my 3rd new car since 1987 - that was a Deep Shadow Blue Crown Vic, sold in 1995. Then I got a black Ranger with blue stripe which I still have, in 1998. I had a used Mark 7 in between.

O.M.M.I.H. Only Mustang Makes It Happen

And here it is close up. This is right off the truck and parked in the muddy lot. I am psyched... my name is even on the window sticker!

Thanks - I have put off delivery for a couple of days. I live in central New York State and we had 14" of heavy wet snow here this week. What a mess. You can barely walk in it.
