Part Rice???
 
I was on the express way last weekend when I came up to a red sn95 mustang, two gold racing stripes, and gold rims. As a roll up next to him I see a small gold SVT badge on the side... One problem tho... it only had a single exaust..

I saw a green Mustang with chrome fender trim, chrome door trim, 17" daytons that stuck out and euro taillights. Makes me smile just thinking about that poor, misguided person who did that to the Mustang.

That really sucks! http://www.mustangworks.com/interact...gboard/mad.gif

But hey, I guess since it's their cars, they can do whatever they want. http://www.mustangworks.com/interact...oard/frown.gif Just wish they would do it to a Chevette or Pacer.

Ah yes. What I don't like is the "accent" stripe that ford sells on the new v6 stangs. I guess they know the market though, people who want the image. It really just makes it easier for me to identify the 6's, I call it a cheapie stripe.

I don't know about you guys but I spot the 6 cylinders a mile away...

No fog light, bad looking wheels, exaust, strips... and I usually scream to myself, go buy yourself a real stang.

I guess the 6 is not so bad for the price, but why bother putting money (wheels, fake exaust) into the CHEAP mustang?

And the worst part is that they put all this crap on a six cyl. that would make it considered highly modified to ricers, and then they loose to a honda and the honda owners say "I beat a highly modded stang"

That's the reason I love having them on my GT...
More than one ricer has fallen for the 6 cyl. stripe fake out....
