Haha, brother I know how crazy I sound. Trust me!
Thanks for the other comments this is my first new car (and last for a lonnnnng time haha) - pics are def forthcoming after the showcase showdown. I've only got access to a local wash bay. Love that it has a power washer and air drier, but wont use anything else. Will bring my own bucket and products (and a heap of $5 bills haha).
This one doesn't have the glass roof - I had a 93 MR2T with t-tops and all of that glass ended up in my hair and legs after I was hit by a guy making an illegal u-turn. For those of you that haven't seen this, it's amazing. It would be the ultimate step down to help me forget about the convertible.
My manager buys a SVT Mustang every 10 years; he has 2 track-prepped beasts at or above 600hp right now (2004 and 1994). He is always running the streets of Willow and has a run scheduled for mid march. I'm sitting out of this one, as I don't have time or money to do a complete fluid change and replace my tires and brakes after a single day's fun at the track.
But seriously - I was a dyed-in-the-wool import racer before last December. My last 3 cars were some heavily modded MR2s and this bone stock S2000. No way I If you told me last year that I'd be after one of these 'Merican heaps I'd have laughed you out of the room! There's just something about these cars - any American muscle car I'd say. Love the rumble and I totally get what my dad was talking about back in the day. You HAVE to have a V8 with stick shift at least once in your life.
@Chris's FX4: The rear end is def planted. You don't even notice that it's not independant with the third link setup. I have seen some rendering of the 2015 and it's beautiful - very Aston Martin/European. Unfortunately, that's not my thing. I wanted the more retro/classic look. Another thing to consider is that these larger displacement motors are on their way out. Ford will be turboing everything in the near future and rumor has it they wil be brining back the 4 cyl mustang next round - think of an Ecoboost 4 in the Stang! No! No!
Sweet mercy people. You need to drive a V8 with a stick at least once in your lives! It's intoxicating! Don't let the gub'ment take away our muscle cars and force our manufacturers into foisting global/euro platforms onto us! If I wanted that, I'd have bought an Audi!
