Talking Pulled the Trigger!!!

Today I ordered my first Mustang and American car ever.

2011 Mustang V6 Coupe Premium + MCA Package

- V6 Performance Package
- HID
- Electronics Package
- Security Package
- Comfort Package
- Rear View Camera
- Tape Stripe Delete
- Rear Decklid Trim Panel (need to order separately, couldn't find the option in the system )
- Sterling Gray with Black Intirior

Total with X-Plan 31,229.25 not including the rear decklid panel, taxes and $125 doc/title/registration/prep fee.

Notes:
- The MSRP price for the Performance Package was $1495 ($1301 invoice) instead of $1995 like I read everywhere. Wonder if this is because I also order the MCA package which also comes with its own set of wheels.
- The Performance Package says Body Color Mirror in the discription . I hope that is true because the job#2 Price List Sheet that I saw says gloss back mirror covers.

I'm very glad that finally I was able to order the car and the price came out a little lower than expected. Now the waiting game begins...

I thought about it a lot but decided against it for three reasons. Price, it doesn't open and that is the best part of having a sunroof. Last, I just like the look of the Mustang with the normal body color roof better. Trust me, it wasn't an easy decision.

Wow, how did it get that expensive? Another grand and you could have had a GT Premium with 19s.

Yeah but then not Electronic Package, Rear View Camera, HID, Security Package, etc... Also more taxes, insurance, monthly payments, gas, traffic tickets . Trust me I already did the math.

Insurance is negligible at best. I did the research, also. $13/mo for me. If that makes you buy a V6 over a GT you need to take that $13 and go buy yourself a skirt at Kohl's.


Seriously, though, traffic tickets are a concern. I consider myself a very responsible driver and I can't keep my foot out of this thing!

I hear you, man. As long as you like it. I'm honestly surprised my wife was as open to me even getting a new 5.0, let alone insisting I get the premium.
