Question A guy's first pony

Hey everybody, I've been a fan of the site for a while and I've loved Mustang for years. Well I'm about to turn 16 and I've been lucky enough to have a mom that's into cars like I am so she's been saving a lil money and is gettin me an 05 Mustang, a V6 of course, cmon you think she's that crazy...well I want to know what all can I do to the lil pony. I'm still learning a lot about cars so I really need your help to make this car something great, thanks in advance, cya!

(note: please don't give me the same speach that when you turned 16 you got a 80 pinto hatch with no a/c and made the most of it, I'm a lucky guy and I know it.)

Oh I forgot to mention, it will be an auto since I grind the gears sometimes while driving my dad's VW 69 bug.

Hey those 05 V6's have almost the horsepower of the 96-97 GT 4.6 stock. I have driven one with an automatic and I was impressed. The aftermarket for the 05 Mustang is unbelievable and the potential is awesome. Enjoy!!

BTW, my first car was an Ivy Green 70 Maverick with a 250 6 cyl. and 100K miles. Sorry, had to. My son has a '03 Mustang GT

Those 05 V-6's are still potent. I definately would not mind one. All I got is an 89 rolling chassis, I drive my dads 99 Hyundai LOL
