Got my first V8 Mustang!!!

Mustang97SC · 12-25-2004, 03:30 PM

I used to have a blown 97 V6, it served its purpose well, but it never had the real power feel of the V8.

Recently i picked up my 40th Anniversary GT

I've never had a Mustang V8 before (had a 6 and a 4) so this is the biggest thrill in my life! I love this car and baby it to death

Already started to mod it a little at a time... heres a few pictures of her

(all pre-bullitt/mach1 additions)

Welcome to the V8 world! You have grown up now, you are through playing with toys, now you have a REAL Mustang. Enjoy! Great Pics, too!

Congrats!
I like the taillight picture, just a cool angle.
You of course realize part of the initation involves buying a pair of cheapo tires then taking it out and burning them off, right?

And dont forget doughnuts and bootleggers in an empty parking lot, LOL

You know you want to....

I was 22 when I bought my first mustang(5.0). I must say, you got the best body style. I had to have one myself and bought an 04 Mach1 alittle over a year ago. The edge looks better than the 05, imo. A little advise, take it easy on wet streets.. it can get away from you. I've been lucky with quick reflexes. I now can slide the cars to 180 degrees at will.. I get a rush every time and it must look cool to the onlookers(judging by the reactions). Enjoy your new car.
