Well as most of you may know I decided to sell the z. Right now it's just not practical to keep this car at all. So I opted for something a lot cheaper. I did not want to go back to a fwd platform so I stumbled across this:

Z gone-Here's the replacement 2010-10-30234916
2003 mustang GT, AUTO
Mach 460 Sound
Power Everything
Leather Interior

Currently, the car has:
American Muscle Smoked Tails
American Muscle Smoked Headlight Housings
Flowmaster American Thunder Catback
K&N Intake

Overall, I'm very happy with the car. The color is rare to find on a gt and there weren't many made in this package.

Spring will bring:
4.10 Gears
Summit Racing h pipe
Trickflow 75mm TB
Trickflow upper plenum
American Muscle Subframe connectors
Tune
Mach 1 Chin Spoiler
Mach 1 Grill Delete Kit
And maybe my dynotune nitrous kit

Granted it's not a 350z, but it's a lot cheaper to own compared to the z, takes regular gas, and parts are a lot cheaper.l I can have a built 2v motor for a quarter of the price to build the z. Or I can do a poor man's cobra buildup. Springtime I'm hoping do dip into high 12s on motor, and maybe do a mid 12 on nitrous with my drag radials.

Yea, it's an automatic GT. It'll be a lot more fun to say it's just an auto after a run too afro

More autotragic aha, but a sexy car nonetheless. I've developed an appreciation for mustangs lately. These are my second favorite bodystyle behind the Foxbody mustangs. Trade ya wheels? Wink

I'd rather not trade but I"m willing to sell!


Auto is better for what I plan to do to the car. I've seen 400whp autos with just a 3800 stahl do 11.2s.


Also, it kicks the rear out hard on the 1-2 upshift. I'm wondering if it has a shift kit. I took a honda owner for a ride tonight and even they enjoyed it. Nothing like the sound of a raw american v8

Z gone-Here's the replacement CIMG0703

volk racing te37s on a new edge and it looks fucking amazing. It sucks that there are six types of rims that look good on a stang and everyone does them but this is tits!

So ive decides to take small steps to improve the handling of my car. Im probably the worst handling out of the group.

For starters i plan on dropping the car with h&R ss lowering springs. These will be a nice addition to the car and will help get rid of the 4x4 status. Hell slurpies truck is probably nore flush than me. Next up is a set of subframe connectors from upr products. Ita not much but it is a start however. i could go with drag springs but this car isnt a dedicated drag racer. I want an overall well balanced car so i cant just go for drag suspension

You guys are going to love this:

So I go to get plates for the stang today. Can't because I don't have the title work on the car to get plates. No big deal just go to the dealership and get it. Well, I stumble upon the clusterfuck of clusterfucks. My original loan term which I had signed paperwork for did not get approved, however, they would do a term that was 8 months shorter. No big deal, I'll just call around at work and see what happened. So they say just come back when you have time to sign paperwork.

Get to work and make a few phone calls. It turns out I did get approved, but for the eight months less of a term. It's been a fucking month and I'm now just finding this shit out? Seriously what the hell. So I call my dealer buddy cooper in indy and ask what my options are. I did not want eight months shorter as I won't get other stuff paid off in time. His advice? Tell them to fuck themsleves. But how can I walk away without a car and having drove it for one month?

Technicalities!!!


Yes! Everyone's faborite little dirty word. I signed a contract for said term and at said financial institution. Since this did not go through, I am not legally bound to the car. If it would have, then yes, I'd have no way out. So, I've drove this car for free for a month.

So What is my next plan of action?


TAKE IT BACKK!!!!!

That's Right! There's not a thing they can do but pressure me into this deal but it's not happening. I'm not legally tied to the car, so I can walk away for what has happended. So basically drove a stang for a month, liked it, but am letting it go back

Stay tuned for epic tales of lulz tomorrow

You guys should have seen the look on their faces when I caught them in a lie today when I took it back. I actually wanted to be a lawyer that specialized in contract law because I love technicalities. First they said that I wasn't approved because of my credit for the term and that the miles didn't allow the car to book out. So after those two bs calls I wasn't a happy person. Told them it's easier for me to cut ties from them and I wouldn't be doing business anytime soon.
