First, in person, the car is much better. But more important, the drive is so much better it's like a different car. Much more refined, but when you want to play, the pony is still waiting to dance.
Just picked up a 2015 GT in Magnetic. Never thought I would even consider a grey car, but the black wheels just made the color pop. So far, it is amazing. It has replaced my 2014 Shelby, and I have to say that this new GT is heads above my Shelby in everything but thrust. But it is plenty fast! The handling just is amazing. No body roll, and it just sticks like glue. It actually drives like a much lighter car.

Not sure yet what is next in the style department. I am hoping the sun will be out this morning to take some new photos. I appreciate all the compliments! I was going after a Mach 1 look with the stripe, as I have done over the tops so many times before. Just hoping for something a little more different.
****, I really want a new GT. However, my insurance tells me to go with an Ecoboost or V6. You can't imagine what insurance is for a 23 y/o male with no accidents or tickets! (knock on wood).
Sometimes it pays to be over 60. My '14 GT Premium 'vert costs less to insure than my leased '14 Fusion with a 1.5 EB.
I bought my first 5.0 GT at 23 and my insurance was pretty high even though I had a clean record. But when I turned 25 my insurance was literally cut in half so talk to your insurance company about that before you buy! :-)

I pulled the bow tie off my front grill on my SS Camaro and bought a "bow tie eliminator" .It would be nice to get one for the Mustang.

I have been using the same installer for years. I design my stripe, he creates and installs. The Pony was plasti-dipped. I just tapped him off, cleaned it with alchol and did several light coats. This way, it can always be changed back

New Photos of Stripe
It isn't very sunny here today, but I did get some photos to show off the stripe & blacked out pony. Also the windows were tinted and I added Redline hood struts.
