Dark side convert
I hope I am still welcome here, I promise not to become an annoying fanboy.
But my Hummer H3T was just not cutting it at all for me. So after only 2 months and 12 days of owning it, I had to get something different. I now drive a Black 2008 Mustang GT, Manual Transmission, leather, nav, HID, (no fake hood scoop)--- and I have the "ugly" wheels, which I will have to update them soon. And to point out the obvious.. It is not near as fast as a 2010/11 Camaro SS. But it is a very fun car to drive. I enjoy it a lot. Financially this car fit my budget at the moment, Not to mention I have become quite a fan of Ford (after my wife got the 2010 Edge, and My buddy got a Black Mustang Bullitt (2008).. I am feeling that My old Pontiac G8 GT was faster than this car a tad bit in stock form, (very close) and with my Pontiac tune, intake, exhaust, I was most definitely quicker in that car. But the stick is soo much fun.

Grats! The 3v 4.6 is a great motor to boost. When you build the funds up I would look into the Kenne Bell.

You said ugly wheels? I think those are the best looking wheels that came on those model years'.
Congrats though! As long as you like it and can afford it, then hey whynot?! |

really,, wow, I wouldn't have thought they would have been considered the nicer wheels to many folks.. Cool.. Maybe if I upgrade, I will be able to sell these off, to recoup some of the money dished out for the new wheels
