I do like the MCA styling, Dicho.

I'm off this weekend and I really really really really really wish there was a factory delivery option for Mustangs right about now.  Knowing it's just sitting there without my being able to drive it yet is killing me!  Ordering a car is a test of patience greater than that of Ralphie waiting Christmas.

Where are you, geographically speaking?  I'm a little west of CAP in the Philly suburbs.

The sales guy isn't anything special (sorry ladies/Camaro enthusiasts) but the sales girl at the used car place up the street just about sold me a 2008 Shelby GT500 which is deep down what I really want but don't want to pay for.  "Huh, what?" as I snapped out of her trance.

Dirty blonde, cute, named Ivana, Ukrainian, accent, glasses...yeah.

I might offer a ride and lunch as an apology for not buying a car from her.  Either that or somehow be convinced it's a good deal to trade in my brand-new off the lot car for the Shelby that's sitting there  :headscratch:

cute, accent, and into cars...........where's that place again :devil?

TY Saj and Golfer

In between Dallas and Ft Worth.  But I have to say a drive to the NE is sounding pretty tempting at the moment :)

Hey Cap.. it's your thread and all but how about just letting people post their rides with no drama and only good humored poking fun at each other?  I'm enjoying this :)

I'll have to give creds to whoever is holding the camera too cap, because if that was not a lucky shot there had to be some good reaction there too.  :aok Much like photographing the lightning..
Very cool picture you've got there, really captures time and power right in the launch.  :rock :salute

If it were mine, it would be enlarged, framed and hanging on the biggest wall in my living room. Right above my sofa.. With spotlights..   :D

My daily drive is German, and I never was any fan of Mercedes really but I am really starting to like this one. Well, here she is. Mercedes w124 1990 mod, with my little personal touch-ups. Or downs..  :P












And a couple of my other rides as we are throwing pics..  :)

67Volvo Amazon


82 Blazer K5.



Old Dodge of mine in the background too.. Its still sitting around here actually.. Not in use.
