Can't wait to bring it home!
Hey - just wanted to share some pictures of my new toy - 2006 Mustang GT in Vista Blue with silver stripes. Pictures are not great but I will take better ones when I can bring it home in the spring.

Thanks, No its not bone stock. BBK CAI, large bore throttle body, close ratio gearbox, newer stainless exhaust with flowmaster mufflers and 4" chrome tipped tail pipes. It also has matching side window louvers and hood scoop from 3dCarbon. It sounds awesome - previous owner said he had it dyno tested at around 370hp.

Congratulations on the new Mustang - looks great.
Not trying to rain on the parade, but unless the previous owner had the dyno paperwork to prove it, I think +70hp from a CAI, throttle body and exhaust is a little optimistic. Doesn't matter though - cool to have the coupe to compliment your convertible.

Unfortunately, I have to sell the convertible this spring when it comes out of storage. I only bought the coupe now because I found exactly what I wanted but that means storing 2 cars for a while.

Those are golden words to hear,
doesn't happen often, but nice when it does. Good luck with the sale.
