9 yrs the 17th I've had the 06 now, dont think I will ever tire of this car...
this summer it got some upgrades:
1) went back to 17" wheels (didnt like the ride after going to 18's)
beefy 27.9" rear tires, really softens the ride.
2) put a new clutch disk(50 bucks at NTO)- first mechanical part it needed, think its at 70k or so now
3) added a 'tranzit blu' bluetooth adapter, kinda cool- links to the phone soon as you start the car, great for audiobooks and music...
4) added shims under the bumpstops and airbags inside the rear coils before the summer road trip- fully loaded, bouncing around some of the most beautiful-albeit rough- roads in Colorado...had a great trip

heres a pic from 05 with my then 6 yr old, and one of him cruising across New Mexico(just had his temps- has since got his license)

Congrats! Couple of nice Stangs in that early pic. Hope my experiences with my 14 are as good as yours!

Trying to determine if I should get my '05 a birthday cake next April 04th. It will be ten years old. Still a dream to drive.
