I got the car on Thursday, and I can't seem to stop driving it. I haven't owned a Mustang since my mildly-modded '90 GT which I sold 8 years ago. Needless to say, things have come a long way since then. I wouldn't have really thought about getting a new Mustang but when Ford announced the 0% on all '06s deal, I was the fastest thing smoking to my local dealer. The accesories were dealer-installed: CDC louvers, CDC shaker kit, and black stripes. We were able to work out a discount on the accesories, and get rid of the bogus $1,995 "market value adjustment". So far I'm loving the car; but I envision tint, an SCT tune, FRPP Stinger axle-back, 3.73 gears, and springs/shocks in the near future to liven things up a little.

Here she's already out mingling with her siblings today at a local speed shop's open-house. Ignore the guy in the background eating the hot dog.

Nice. How much visibility do you lose with the louvers? What did you have to give for the car?
