Default How did you get into 'stangs?

OK, The thought just occured to me, and I decided to post the questionand see what the answers were. My question is what brought you into the "Mustang family"? Was there one special moment? A delibarate decision based on performance? A family legacy? What?
Obviously, I'll go first
I wasn't big into cars growing up, and the first car I ever really fell in love with (because of a movie) was a Black '69 Camaro SS (Please hold the catcallsand 20 points to the person who guesses the movie <g> ), I had never realized that a car could be anything but pure transportation. Not in my worldview.
Anyway, years later, I was hunting for a first car, and ended up buying a '77 Mustang II hatch with the v-6. I knew nothing about 'Stangs except they were supposed to be sports cars along the Camaro lines. ( All I can say is that I was still ignorant ) Over time I started to learn the backstory, and get more involved in the mystique and history of the car.
Long story short, I think back to the times I had w/ that 77, and I guess that was what made me want another. And another. And another. We're at numbers 4 and 5 right now. To me its a way to hold on to the freedom of youth, and be part of an oncoing "story" if you will. Besides, I get to find cool places like this board, LOL.
Not to mention, you never know when you'll need a fast car for a getaway, LOL.

So, How bout you folks?
