Hmmm, a thinly veiled Kentucky resident joke? Odd, I've never heard the NASCAR stereotype before..... /sarcasm

 

[Cattlegod]

very fun cars to drive. make sure you get the 5 speed manual instead of the auto, or hand in your man card

 

[MasterAndCommander]

Yes and yes.

Well, I just picked one up a few hours ago. 2006 Mustang GT Premium. Black with red leather. Shaker 1000 sound system. I need to replace the floor mats.. they're red and look stupid. Final price of $29,800 out of the door, including tags, taxes, gap insurance, etc.

Congrats. Test and Tune night FTW?

Apparently, they're selling well but I've only seen a handful up here in the northeast.

I hope you checked out how much the insurance on the Mustang was before you got it. It might end up costing as much as the G35 with insurance.

Nice! :thumbsup:

Sounds like you got all the options I did, except mine is Redfire. Yeah, I hated the red floor mats too - I switched them for some black ones that have the "Ford Racing" logo on it.

Now..where's the pics?

Eh, I'm happy with the sound system. It is louder than I'll ever need or want it to be, and it wasn't that expensive after haggling.

[Fenixgoon]

[bigrash]

[Gunslinger08]

Driving the car kind of depresses me, because I can't go faster than 65.

No stripes. They're available aftermarket, so I'll see if I like them or not first.

I'll have pics up tomorrow.

Black exterior w/ red "Shelby" racing stripes across the hood would be sweet IMO joshsquall

Since you haven't posted what tranny you opted for I am guessing its an automatic and going ahead and calling you a wussy .

Haha. No, it's a 5 speed. I don't know who would buy a 300 HP muscle car and opt for the more expensive and suckier automatic.

my thoughts exactly

 

[MasterAndCommander]

The new 5-speed automatic is actually pretty good - but I too opted for the manual.
