...I'll tell them, but I won't like it. I would also like to say, I'm just trying to get some fast food here. I'm not at a car show. Rant over...thank you

hey, if you don't want people asking what GT means, don't drive a car that says GT... Just be glad people are interested in your car and are curious to learn more about it. Geez, how do you expect people to learn about things if it is unacceptable to ask a simple question.

I don't drive it for them and it gets annoying after a while. The internets have everything you want to know.(LOL) I would just like it not to turn into a 15 minute conversation everytime I go somewhere. I probably wouldn't mind one question or statement, but it rarely ends there. I love my mustang, but I have things to do. Darn it. LOL

I lost track roun 30-35
And 20 of those was when the car was full stock. I dont even wanna try and count all the times ppl tried racing me just cuz its a GT
they get all cocky when they floor it and im doin mildly spirited accelerating. Then at the next light i dump the clutch and leave with a light chirp followed by the roar of about 400 horses.
Lets just say they try hiding their faces at the next light.
It gets annoying but its fun when u get a real race goin(:

Had 20k on the dial when i bought it and has 33k now. At least 20-30 of those miles have been spent layin down rubber and full speed blasts on county roads(:
Everything was in pristine condition and i got for *drum roll* 8k!
