How much off MSRP should I submit as my first offer for the car? The Mustang is $41,000 as the MSRP and the dealer is selling it for $36,900.

NAs are my favorite Mazda. Nice options on the Mustang, I almost ordered Grabber Blue. My original plan was to keep the MX-5 too but then it became one or the other.

Sold my '04 BMW E46 Zhp 330i 6mt a couple weeks back. I'll be driving the XJ until the GT arrives...

It's fun reading about others paths to mustangs. I've had the s2000, sct foci (2) among others. Grew up with a 87 fox body gt, so it's kind of full circle.

Let's put it this way, my chances of having children have been reduced by 50%.

Thanks. I picked up my NA in July as just a toy. It's on Megan Racing coils, BBS RKs and I'll be getting the R Package lips and rear spoiler soon.

What is a NA? Sorry if this is a dumb question.

Wow, really?

NA = 1990-1997
NB = 1999-2005 (there was no 1998.)
NC = 2006-Present

Fun little cars.

Yeah, I bought it and put a bunch of racing beat stuff on it. I gave it to my father about 8 years ago. He gave it back to me but it still sits in his carport. It is a blast to drive. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

Traded in my '09 Wrangler Rubicon, and I miss that think like CRAZY right now. Can't go hunting without it. But never, never will I think it was the wrong decision to let it go for the '13 GT500. I can always buy another Jeep.

And yes, the old 190hp Jeep (which was replaced by the Rubicon) was about as fast as a riding lawn mower. The thing was a rolling brick, and on long trips I would get in as close as I could to the semis on the road. It drafted really well, but get that thing in open air, and it's like losing 50hp. The Rubicon was noticeably better, of course.
