I have completed my journey to being a douche, felt the vehicle needs to match the owner.
So after 10 years of beebopping around in my Sportage, I let my impulses get the best of me. I went to the Dodge dealer to check out their Challengers, but they had nothing V8 and 6spd manual, all V6 auto Challengers. Lame.
The sale manager said "that Mustang is a stick, take it for a test run". I knew what would happen if I drove it, he knew it too, so I waited a few days. Monday morning rolled around and I called to tell them to get the paperwork rolling.
It was nice not having a car payment, as well as having a reliable AWD turbo vehicle with room to do stuff. Mustang, not really cut out for camping and such.
Anyway, got this 19 GT with PP1 installed, along with factory optional wheels. She had just under 9k miles when I bought her, now I am about to hit 29k and still smells new and still puts a big shiteating grin on my face.
I can't believe how high these modern small blocks rev. 7500rpm redline from the factory, power doesn't really kick in until about 3200rpm or so. As for mods, nothing big yet, just did: k&n panel filter, x pipe, resonator delete, two Flowmaster Super 44s, random exhaust tips, tint, TB spacer, new rear tires (295/40/19 to complement the 255s up front), and some interior accents.
Here she is, if you've seen a Mustang, you have seen them all. Love the color and it is hard to argue with 460hp and 420lb/ft right out the box.
