Sorry just really excited right now. My wife and I just test drove a 2013 GT 6spd.

Absolutely no comparison to our 03 GT auto. It felt like jumping into a 4 cylinder after we were done. I want it, I really do! I've always had good credit but I also have a lot under my name. Mortgage, boat, credit cards...

It sure doesn't leave much for spare change.

Well you obviously need a 2013 GT-500 then.

A test drive in a '13 GT has that effect. Next thing you know, you will have one in your driveway.

Yea that 420 is no joke. You don't lose a whole lot at the wheels either. It's what hooked me on the GT. Started off in the V6 and test drove the GT for fun and now my wallet regrets that decision.

Then the modding bug hits, and your wallet is REALLY hurting.

Luckily with these mustangs, a CAI+Tune+Exhaust is really all you need. that's what, $1500?

Im still blown away over the difference from my former 04 gt as compared
to my 06 gt. I dont even want to try the 5.0, I might buy one if I did!

Awesome! Great shots, too.

Yeah, a manual is always a huge improvement over auto.

Actually it was the other way around. She saw it, she wanted it, she convinced me. It's her DD. I usually drive my truck. She has the chore of making sure the payment gets paid. + for me sense I get to play with "her" toy Gonna stick with CAI and probably an axleback. Debating which ones. Do I really need a tune after the CAI?

It's a pretty basic GT though. Standard GT package. Gonna miss power seats but I can deal with manual fine. It's the excitement and speed that got me that fine morning.

So our family is resorting to Ramen noodles for quite some time. Going to search around for some spots to take more pics.

Meh, I don't think you need to tune after a CAI. It's not such a huge alteration.

Also, you seem to have an awesome wife! Good choice!
