Just bought my first Stang

Trainwreck · Apr 22, 2005

AND I AM TOTALLY IN LOVE!

The problem is that I don't know if I am like "weak" or anything, or if I don't have "street cred" because I have a V6 automatic.

Got it used for $7800 and under 50,000 miles. Everything seems stock besides the front speakers.

I'm not going to race her, but its really nice looking and works as a chick magnet. Don't know what kind of mods I want to do, I'm pretty broke from buying the car. Here is the pics, stop me if my car is some weakling that should never be mentioned again.

Trainwreck · Apr 22, 2005

I know, that's what I'm afraid of. People will spit on my V6. To tell you the truth, I don't know a lot about Mustangs. I have only had mine for about 3 hours now. I drove a 1988 Ford Escort before this, so it is a major upgrade. The Escort finally died last week, after 16 years of service to my family (it was given by my father). They bought me the Stang because I have never been in an accident or had a ticket.

But yeah, definitely would feel a bit odd being a V6 stock there...

I dont think it matters... Its a stang meet. All are welcome. You should go...

Trainwreck · Apr 22, 2005

I don't know a lot about cars and mods and stuff, I don't know if I could hold a convorsation. I really want to learn, but I am intimidated a bit.

Oh, there will be plenty of conversation groups to join in, you dont have to be into cars to appreciate them and look for stuff you may want to do to yours. I know its a long drive, but if your bored, there will be hotdogs and pop waiting for ya.

IICrazy · Apr 22, 2005

its gonna be a nice day too. c'mon man.

peer pressure rules

Trainwreck · Apr 22, 2005

I would love to go and meet some other Stang drivers and talk about what could be done to make mine cool (if that is possible).

I think its cool already, but I know there will be many there that will not agree.

everyone that will be there is supportive of all stangs, I hope.

Dude.... quit whining. Its very unbecoming of a stang owner.

ANY stang is better than no stang!

Save up for some wheels and tires (17s look good and are affordable, many are stock wheels that have been removed in favor of aftermarket ones.)
Bullits, Cobras, Mach1s, even the regular mustang gts all come with 17s. I got mine for like 100 ea, just like brand new. And if you like 16" "pony" wheels, people practically give those away....

A shift kit, and dual exhaust and you'll be stylin'.

Then in a few years you can always upgrade to a gt or cobra...

Paint looks good. The spoiler is a nice touch, too.

Good looking car.

Welcome,
Dave-

You are welcome to go!!! We insist.

*shameless plug*...And I have a MAC Cold Air induction kit, Catted Hpipe and Dual exhaust for sale for your six in case you want to start the mods early... It's about $800 + shipping new and they've been installed but have no miles on them so I'll consider letting them go for $500.

Trainwreck · Apr 22, 2005

Thanks for the advice. I will quit my whining now, as long as I can meet some of you cool folks down there, you seem nice enough. I hope I can work it out, I start school again next week too, so I need to get a few things done.

The wheels are kind of the ugly factor for me too.

I also want to repaint this color:
