Stopped by the Ford dealership friday afternoon to pick up a couple parts for my 5.0. As i was leaving, i decided to check out the red '06 GT vert in the showroom. A salesman saw me doing so and jumped on me right away.
I wasn't really interested in a new car, but i decided to play along with him asking him if he had any '06 GT coupes yet. He did, but they are automatic. I stated that i wanted a 5-spd and began to leave but then he said he had something I might like.
So he brings me around back and shows me a '06 V6 with the new Pony Package and in that new Tungsten color. I gotta admit, not a bad looking ride. Ford's little tweaks made it look so much better than the base V6. The grill looked great as did the bullitt wheels. I like how Ford went back to the running pony emblem as the center cap for the V6 bullitt wheels instead of the Ford emblem on the Gt bullitt wheels. Only thing i didn't care for was the ENORMOUS 5" tall running pony emblems on the fender. They just looked TOO big
I was about to say "It looks nice, but i could never drive a V6 Mustang" when he litterally threw me the keys and said, wanna drive it?
Anyway not a bad little ride. I've already driven an '05 GT and you guys all have 05+ Mustangs so no need to tell you how they drive. It was a fun little ride and we did get a lot of attention to which the salesman tried to use to sell me on it. He also claimed with gas prices the little V6 would be a smart buy.
As nice as it was, I'm a V8 guy. At the end of the ride i handed the keys back to him and gave him my number and told me to call him when a 5-spd GT came in.
