Very nice! So give us the personal review. Would you go back to the old one?

In 2016 I test drove a new 16 and thought it wasn't worth the car payment. Now with the extra hp and the few extras this one has on it it was worth it. The old one would not pass smog due to headers and I was tired of changing the title every year to another family members name so i could get pates without testing. After 12 years and 112k miles the fact that Ford offered the zero interest it was time. I was actually looking at getting new wheels, tires, and some other odds and ends for the 06 but figured it was money better spent on a new ride. I loved the simplicity of the 06 with a few buttons on the steering wheel and enough HP to get in trouble on the street. It was/is a fun car. The new one has all the extras that I installed on the 06 plus a few so no mods planned right now. Maybe some sound deadner to make those long road trips a little nicer. I did add that to the 06 and was very happy with the results.

Bad *** man!!! That's awesome. How is the 10 speed automatic? My next car is an automatic as well.
Congrats and enjoy.

I haven't had a lot of time to play with it but I can say it is pretty impressive and responsive. 500 miles now.
FF to about the 1 minute mark. That one has active exhaust but you can see / hear how crisp the shifts are.
This one has a little more exhaust work.
