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?
 
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.

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.
