Congrats! Nice. Are they still offering the red ICAP in 08? I'm guessing that'd be a better match than redfire or TR.

Gorgeous color. If you are going to get red, that is the red to get.

Yep, it is metallic. Here are the pics compairing redfire with candyapple. . . It was very cloudy today so I'll have to go back and get a direct sunlight shot. Very similar. Hopefully the pics turn out ok (camera phone shots).

The only thing it does not have is the interior upgrade. I think I'll swap the cluster someday for mycolor. I just didn't have the patients to order one. Oh ya, I also went with a 5-speed manual. It is so much fun to drive manual again.

By the way, nice to meet you guys! I'm Den. I've been reading and looking at pictures for a while here, but this is my first actual post.

It is too dark out to take pics right now so I'll take some tomorrow morning.

Later,

Den

wecome and 5-speed manual is the only way to go, yes they are fun. I had/have in all my 7 Stangs.

I just stopped by a local dealer and saw a Redfire and a Dark Candy Apple Red under sunny skies. The Redfire has a purple hue compared to the DCAR, but they are very close in color. The DCAR is a great color, looks like I'll be choosing it for my new car! The DCAR does have metallic flakes in it. Den, very nice Mustang!!
