New pony for my stable!!!

Went to look at it after work and had to bring it home.

- Sterling Grey
- 401a Black w/Cashmere
- 3.55
- Electronics Package
- Comfort Group
- 19" Painted Wheels
- Security Package
- HID
- Back Up Camera

It has only been home about an hour so I don't have many good pics. More will be provided in the next day.

This car is awesome. Thanks to those that answered the questions and helped me decide.

I just didn't see paying that kind of money for the glass roof. Trust me it would have been nice, but I was happy how it all ended.

The one configuration I want there is only 1 in the system this side of the mississippi and it just so happens to be a few miles away. It was destiny.

Ended up using Ted Britt in Chantilly.

You're welcome. Glad to see you went "Route A" . . .

See how much quicker that smile got to you?

The car looks sweet.

There was probably a million different configurations when it came to options that I would be happy with. What matter is I got exactly what I required and then some.

The electronics package is a gadget guy's dream. So much fun to mess with that thing.

Couldn't agree more! I seem to use it more for the jukebox/USB than I'll ever use the NAV but it all just works so seamlessly together. It adds to the whole driving experience.

Can't tell you how many times I've lifted my phone to my ear after dialing only to have the car "take over" responsibilities for the speaker/microphone. Then I say, "Oh yeah, the car will handle this..." I've already burned a half dozen or more CDs to the jukebox and I have an MP3 player dedicated to the USB port.

Now if I could just tell it that my USB should be the default/primary "User Device" ... it wants my phone's BlueTooth to be the default user device. Oh well. It's a one-button swtich.

Sirius TraveLink is pretty cool too. Just pull up gas prices wherever you are. Or movie times. I did that the other day after surfing my Google phone for about 3 minutes. Movie times are MUCH faster with travel link.

This ain't no stinkin' Garmin, kids...

Syncing with my EVO 4G was flawless. Doesn't have the text message option, but thats fine since I don't think I want that stuff showing up on the screen.

Congrats on the purchase!

Congrats!!!

Also, couldn't agree more about the EP guys. Used it the other day when my friend and I wanted to see a movie but we were already out and away from computers. He was gonna use his brand new droid-x, but I beat him to the punch with the EP

That is good looking! All these SG pics in the last few weeks have swayed my away from Kona Blue!

At first I wanted Kona Blue until I saw it in person. Just too much purple in that color for me. Still a drop dead sexy color...but I prefer more Blue.

Then I wanted Perf. White because a clean white car with nice tinted windows is **** sexy. But I didn't like the way it made the plastic pieces on the exterior stick out.

I owned a another car that was similar to Sterling Grey and loved it. After looking at a bunch of pictures of the SG mustangs, I was set. It is such a nice color.

The only downside I forgot about is it shows dust a lot more than my old white car. No big deal since I wash my cars often.
