Wow, SG is really getting popular. I always knew I had good taste.

Congrats, Sam.

Believe me, you aren't telling me anything I don't already know.

Beautiful car. I very much like the base 18" wheels & that Stone interior. Good call.

That's what I meant. It's incredible how good the car is these days. Can't wait to see how much better it can be.

I was just laughing since we've disagreed on the black trim on the 2011s in the past, and like cdynaco, I had no idea you were buying one. So when I read his post, it was funny, I guess. Didn't make any comment toward your car in any way. Congrats, BTW, she looks great! One of my favorite colors on these cars.

FWIW, the 2011 GT/CS convertible I looked at this weekend had the same dreaded passenger side A pillar rattle that mine has. Not sure if it has something to do with going 19+ on wheel diameter The rest of my rattles are (self) suspension imposed Otherwise, the 2011 interior was much nicer and plusher compared to mine.

I know. I was just kidding, boo, but I guess I could have been more tactful in my response.

To be honest, I was a little sad when I found out they'd already sold my 2007. It was an excellent car, and my first Mustang.

Corrected.

Here's your Darth Vader underbite: SN95 =





Here's your classic Mustang shark nose: S197 =





Carrying on with the S197 shark nose...

The 2010 Mustang is intended to be "a distinct presence on the road" with an "even more aggressive" look that "flows from the shark-nose front," said Ford’s Chief Designer Douglas Gaffka.

No, he means my Roush clip! The fascia itself is straight up and down, but sticks out farther than the stock bumper. So it could be construed as a slack-jawed yokel

I work during the day throughout the week, anyway. If you guys are ever in the Jefferson City / Morristown area during a weekend, give me a shout. Assuming I'm not in the Sevierville / Pigeon Forge / Gatlinburg area, I should be around.
