When did you order your car?

I ordered January 12th. Tracking is in my sig. Dealer says it's scheduled to arrive on Saturday. Taking 2 weeks to come 700 miles by convoy. They tease me at work saying it's the one on top and in front on the car carrier with all sorts of salt and sand being kicked up on it. If it does arrive, I should have it Monday or Tuesday. First mod is the plate holder!

I originally liked Redfire, but since it didn't exist this year, that was the next best thing. I really like the GT/CS in white, but i've had a white car before and wasn't happy with it. Then again, that was 30 years ago. Torch red is nice, and every time I see a pic of TacoBill's car I wonder if I should have went that route. So many decisions!!!

Minimal removable mods for now. In order to keep payments low, this is a lease but I plan on buying at the end. I'll pay a bit more in interest in the long run, but for the first 2 years my payment is $185 less than buying it. A loan after that will be about $60 less per month than the purchase now.

I really want to add a shaker, but that won't happen until the lease is up and the buy is official. For now I just have some visual stuff ready to go like the Grabber Pony shift ****, blackout panel, clear corners and stealth bulbs. Probably a CAI later this summer after I search the forums and figure out which one will be best for me.

dude,

I think you just convinced me to get the black bullitts for my DCAR !!!

Great contrast on the red! I am going for a sinister, devilish look on my CS, and that should fit the bill nicely!

Love that Bullitt style CAI (+Tune)? Where did you get the CAI so fast? Also, what tune are you running with it---the FRPP one?

thx

I got it from Doug at Bamachips. Its the one that he used to test and create tunes from. My car currently has his 93Performance tune on it and all I can say is WOW! I know the Bullitt intake doesn't make as much power as most intakes, I just like the OEM fit and quaulity.

I like the polished wheels, they just didn't bring out the stripe like the black wheels do.

Those wheels look great! I went with the Ford wheels so I didn't have to buy new tires and I like the way they look.

Some pics of the ride, at random points so far:





Some of these are not so great. I have since put on Agent47 mirrors and lower grill. I will take some picture when I get her cleaned up.

Smile Her name is Linda

This was after 8 hours of detailing. (I still don't understand how it took so long - but she is beautiful!!!)
