I'll toss pics of my car up as soon as I take some... And I'm pretty pleased, I clock it this week and I go 264 miles on a full tank of gas. Not too bad I think. But yeah, I'll even toss up pics of my vanity plate as well.
And I'm fixing to find a repairable 60's 'stang to restore, it'd be a fun project to tackle with my dad.

Nice car, those were making like 200 hp i think. Oh and that year was known as the Integra in the states too, its just this recent model that Honda thought that Acura needed stupid letters as names for all its cars and the Integra followed suit (Legend so totally pwns RL). Still grats, great car.

Wow... I've been gone a while. But, I have tweaked my car oh so slightly since the start of this thread. I've painted my calipers blue(with caliper paint), took apart my air filter and put a cone in its place, covered all the wires/hoses under my hood in blue wire/hose covers, it looks really sick. And I've picked up a radar detector. This is all fine and dandy, minus the whole "not GT" factor. Whatever, Mustang is a Mustang......

I think I might slap you.
A Mustang isn't a Mustang. A V-6 Mustang shouldn't be considered a Mustang. No offense intended, bu the Stangs were meant to be fast, muscle cars. Not V-6.
"Pimping" a V-6 Mustang is about as pointless as me pimping out my Grand Cherokee. Or my Subaru Legacy Wagon. Either way, it'd be stupid.

If you want something good on feul, get a hybrid, or a Civic.
If you buy a mustang, it's for the look, and prestige. No one goes out to look for a feul economical car and comes home with a Mustang. It doesn't work taht way.

I wasn't talking shit n00b. My point is my 4.3 v6 is faster then that v6 mustang, and my friend has an 03 GT 5 speed that is fast as hell. Not as fast as an LS1 camaro/trans am though, of course. :cloud9:

Okay, so by having only a year or so of driving experiance, and parents who bought the car who are concerned that I might wrap it around a tree, I'd say a V6 Mustang ain't half bad for a first car. And the fact that I want to "pimp it out" is simply my 17 year old testosterone and ego kicking in. I'm sorry that a beggar can't be a chooser in this instance. And while I am upset that I don't have a GT 5 speed, I am still content that I'm not driving a shit box or a Chevy.

Why dump loads of cash into your car then? Save your money, until you can afford something worth pimping out.

What matters most is that you drive a car you like, not what other people want you to like. I prefer substance over style. If it doesn't make my car turn quicker, brake harder, or accelerate faster, than it has no place on my car.
