Hi I'm new I bought my car in January but never joined. I've owned Nissans, Honda s2k, rx8, Porsche, BMW, Audi and this is my first American car and is the best I've ever owned. It shares a garage with a BMW, Mercedes, and Ducati right now. It gets more compliments than any car I've owned. I bought it knowing the 2013 was coming, but I guess I'm one of the few that prefer the 2012-- I think it's a little cleaner, but I do wish I had the 2013 hood louvers.

No mods planned yet, but thinking about kooks exhaust, lower height if ford racing comes out with springs, and maybe quarter louvers but undecided with that. I'd like to be at 500+ NA at some point. Any thoughts on mods would be cool. Sorry this is the only decent pic I have.

By the way if anyone is interested I found a way to get hands free Bluetooth with a2dp streaming in the boss or any other base stereo with a 70 dollar module, I can make a thread on it.

Awesome car man. Steeda makes a great safe tune getting you closer to 500 HP.

I heard a set of Kooks on a friend's Camaro SS, and the sound was so authoritive that I was almost ashamed to start mine up in his presence. And I like the sound of my stock exhaust. The Kooks are at another level though.

Thanks everyone. I'm curious what a boss 302 with steeda tune or similar with kooks full exhaust and a lowered stance would perform like. I live in Vegas and it regularly hits 90's to 100's so I thought if I could keep it NA it wouldn't suffer from heat soak as badly as a blown car like the Shelby's although they are very nice cars. The heat here is pretty serious. Poking around on some of your pages you have some pretty incredible mustangs also. It's amazing to me how these cars can be the same but so different from one another.

First thought was 'why would anyone choose the screen name Johnny Saliva?'

Congratulations on a killer car. Very classy pic.

More than just a few of us (probably mostly 11-12 owners) who prefer our look.

Ha, funny flic. I still use a couple lines that are, I think, from that movie...

in my best Indian accent;

How today are you?

Then, prefaced in my angry red neck accent with 'You ain't from around here, are ya?" the response w/same Indian accent is...No, Cleveland!
