Mini to Mustang

From Mini to Mustang. Ordered April 12, built May 6, delivered May 17. A whole new way of driving! I can feel my forearms beefing up!

Better pictures coming; 5.0, Standard, Nav, Glass Roof, rear camera and sensors, charcoal interior, and very cool. IPhone pics.

Thanks Deysha for the tracking along the way!

And My apologies for posting this I'm the wrong place first time around. Ooops!

I got that. Lost the mini - not my mind. Although, some of my friends think this purchase is part of a mid-life crisis. If it is, I say: "Bring it on." thanks for all the comments.

I have a Mini and a Mustang! I love my Mustang, but really do like driving the Mini too... We have the 'S' with a sport suspension and it may only have a fraction of the HP, but it'll get up and go and the sucker turns on a dime! Plus, when I do get to drive my Mustang (which isn't very often sadly), it reminds me how much I miss that low end torque and just overall power!

They are both fun to drive, just in different ways...

Agreed. We kept our Mini when we got our Mustang, and both are a lot of fun to drive in their own way. My kids love riding along in both, they enjoy it when daddy attacks the corners in the Mini, and when he stomps on the gas in the Mustang.

Enjoy your new Mustang Bxmale!

I cleaned up the thread. Please exercise some control when posting. I know it's not easy for some to interact well with others, but one can always try!

Thanks Everyone. Really enjoy being in good company of this forum. Haven't just taken a car out for a ride in a while. Usually going somewhere or doing something. Monday just got in and drove north, no direction or agenda - other than to ride! And boy does this car ride and drive! Fun. Just fun, fun, fun!
