Goodspeed Wrote:Cool, I've seen you around town, on S. Main a few times, very clean. What exhaust do you have on that? Any other mods? We have a few locals that come to our events, and we're not just student-based...Kyle (City Motors) usually brings a nice car to our spring show. Our semester is pretty much over, too cold to do anything now but take a look around and come out in the spring 8)

Jake Wrote:Hey, welcome to the forum. Looks like a nice 'Stang... is that Mineral Gray or DSG? My buddy here at home has a Mineral GT and both are sweet colors on that body.

Hopefully we'll see you at some things in the spring semester - like Goodspeed said, we're basically done for fall at this point.

Ryan T Wrote:Kyle sold the vert and then the guy traded it back in not long ago. It's sitting out front now, I think I may go take it for a spin for shits and giggles. Nice car buddy, hope to see you around. I work right off south main too. If you need Ford parts as cost don't hesitate to contact me.

Your car is definitely on my list of wants, but is unfortunately a very long list. Looks like its really clean, got any more pics?

Tell us some more about yourself: other/previous cars, work, history...

I had a '88 5.0 5-spd GT back in high school but was rear ended after only owning it for nine months so I hadn't really done anything to it other than a pair of Flowmasters. It was a shame too because the car was a one owner, all original, bone stock car that had never been in any type of collision. It was mint.

After that I went through a 4x4 faze. I had a big '88 F250, and then a really clean '98 Jeep GC Limited. The Jeep was really sweet, it had power everything, nice stereo, V8 power and a smooth ride. I still miss that one. Then for a couple years I didn't have anything fun, just my daily beater. So after saving all that time I wanted to buy a low mileage (under 25K miles) 5.0 LX coupe. The same kind of car the highway patrol used in the '80s and '90s. That search lasted 18 months before I gave up in frustration, after finally realizing it's hard to find a 10 year old 5.0 Mustang that hasn't been beat to death, let alone one with the mileage I was looking for.

So then I started looking into the '03-'04 Cobra's. I found my car down in the Raleigh-Durham area in the summer of '07. I went down and looked at it one weekend, gave the seller a deposit to hold it and came back the next week to pick it up on the 4th of July.

Sorry for the book, but you asked
