About damn time, not that anyone here cares.

Ranger is scrapped per a few other threads of mine, and it's motor is finding it's way into my explorer. In the mean time I wanted to buy something that I already had years ago and could never really get over having lost.

I lost this car in 2008 due to bad flooding in Aurora:

2005 Mustang GT Convertible 5 speed, BASE car, cloth, no MP3 player even.

Paid $20,500 for it with 18K on the clock. Lost it a month later:



The new pony:

2006, Premium, Loaded to the teeth minus heated seats and Shaker1000 (Has Shaker 500), 25K miles, manual.

On the contrary Dan. I care. That thing is sexy. I would own one of those if I had more room and/or wasn't so attached to my 89 GT. I really want an 05+ GT or a Terminator (03-04 Cobra).
