All summer i thought i would be saving for an 05' mustang until about a month ago i decided that im not really crazy about that body style..

I just got done payin off my 2001 v6 stang that i am sick of due to the slowness of it..

I didn't wanna get the 04' GT cause everyone has one, at least there aren't too many mach's around.. plus the HP difference ... So im picking up my mach 1 tomorrow (8/31/04).. I'm so excited..

well anyway, now all i need to do is learn how to drive stick.. haha, im not too worried about that.. all i need to know is how to get into first..

Any words of wisdom on my new purchase?

Congrats! You should really enjoy the Mach1, words of wisdom . . . . hum, Kurt may have said it all, I got bit by the mod bug the first month I had mine. Even though I thought the car was fine stock. It only took 1 mod to get it all started.

Then last month my Son got a new GT so it's been helping me to not mod mine with all the things we are doing to his .

Enjoy the new ride.

Congrats!

Take it easy though for the first few thousand, big diffrence going from a v-6 to a 4vDOHC. Good luck with your new ride and stop by Mach1registery.com to register your ride! I also got cold feet with the 05 and went and located a mach1

btw in the rain, you should leave the traction control on, cuz it'll go sideways in 2nd easy

Hey guys.. its me.. sorry i haven't gotten back so soon..

when i bought it on the 31st.. i have done nothin but drive it around..

I learned how to drive stick pretty well.. racing stick is a different story.. ...

my friends taught me how to launch it and stuff like that, so im gettin there..

I got the azure blue color and have gotten lots of compliments on that color and i also get many looks while driving it.. I'm absolutly in love with the car..

The only mod i see me doing now is getting a shifter cause my friends told me thats the first thing i should get to save my trans, esp since im just learning stick..

after the shifter i probably wont get much till next spring..

I'll try to get some pics of it as soon as possible..

Ah man, I plan on getting mine come April, I can't wait to hop into that beast, press down the clutch, turn the key, and let the engine rumble to liiiiiife.
