i like just the marker lights when its still light out but just dark enough for the gauges to light up. and then its hard to keep myself from hitting the rev limit so i can see the shift light come on!

I don't usually drive mine at night. Too many deer around here, and too many bugs beating the **** out of the front end this time of year.

Night time with an empty sweeping on ramp devoid of slower moving vehicles... heaven.

I love driving at night on nice clear nights.

I'm so looking forward to driving at night this summer. I got my car mid August so only had about a month of 'vert night driving at the tail end of summer.

Top down, tunes playing, the roar of my Roush axlebacks (and soon-to-be Airaid CAI)... man I'm getting wood just thinking about it!

No, I absolutely love driving at night. Thats when the ladies get a lot more flirty, and the streets are clear of morons. I usually find myself making up excuses to go on evening excursions for those reasons alone.

I'll go against the grain here and not like driving at night. The actual driving portion I like. But It's the being unable to tell what cars are what and where...certain cars... are sitting waiting for me that hurts the entire experience.

I am able to get more enjoyment out of daytime driving because I can see better.

I love the ambient lighting and MyColor gauges. It's also cool to look up at the glass roof and see the reflections of various lights from the cabin.

Yeah, love cruising on those hot summer nights, tunes, the rumble of the Mustang. Can't wait!! It's been such a long winter up here in Toronto. Oh and those empty, long sweeping on ramps.....Sweet!

Guess the force is with me, as well! It doesn't matter when I drive mine. Although, with my sucky brain, it tells me I see bad @ night! I might see just fine? I just don't chance it. If I get caught out, I do love it a little more!!

Plus, the stock lights are 10,000 times better than any of the 3 sets of HID's I put in my 95. Prob safe for me now?

Love lettin her lose when the sun goes down(: black just looks sexy at the gas stations and watchin reflections off the hood almost gets u in a zone. Plus the rumble of the motor, windows down and music goin?? Combine that with long stretches of traffic free roads and tgats the essence of america right there. Pure, unadultered, Freedom
