Dont worry,your not messing with the happiness,ill use them until after the summer,if they are crap ill just throw on some KDW's and be happy.I have driven them in heavy rain,drove off the lot while it was pouring down and to be honest they gripped really well,supprised me..i figured I was gonna be all over the place.Now on dry i can take off and off course 1st will spin them but when I hit 2nd they hook really well but 1st gotta be carefull,not as good as the KDW's on the GT.Im not gonna complain they didnt have to put new tires on it,it was part of my request for the purchase,but only after I got them down to the price I wanted,then I went after the extras,
.Hell I got those and the maxium warranty at no cost.The only exclusions on the warranty are things like belts,hoses,glass,brake pads,clutch disk,light bulbs,you know all that kinda crap.It does cover things like motor,tie rods,tranny,clutch hubs and bearings.The only thing that sucked was my interest rate(DIVORCE a few years back).Now I havent gottan used to the shift points on it yet but im getting there.also had gotten used to the tri ax in my gt now back to a stocker.

Car looks awesome, nice find! I rarely ever see screaming yellow Machs!! My only suggestion is some deep dish in the rear, if your gonna stay with the bullets...
That thing is 
The bullits are gonna stay,they look good with the yellow and im glad they came with them...i dont care much for the stockers,then im gonna do the black inserts,black rear panel,window tint,and get my Kenwood in there.
Now for shifters I have driven different stangs with just about all the shifters,but the tri-ax just seems more siuted for me,the MGW is nice,nothing wrong with it at all.But 1st things 1st....EXHAUST!!!
right now it sounds like a caddy or something.
I mean the sheriffs dept chargers sound better right now.
Oh yeah am Im the only one in town with a yellow Mach,there are a couple reds,1 white,black and 1 blue...so I stand out.

The only one in my town is driven by a middle aged lady that bought it cause it was the only blue Mustang 
BOTH side scoops are ripped off and its always dirty. I asked her if she wanted to sell it and she said shes giving it to her daughter for her first car so if it gets wrecked its no big deal

Ok finally got my camera to take some better pics,or at least not as washed out looking.It still needs a good cleaning but its been a busy weekend.Went cruising tonight just for fun and finally really laid into it and I was really suprised on different it feels,especially when it gets around 3.5k-4k+ rpms...you really start to feel it push you into the seat,nothing like the GT.Tonight is also really cool out for this time of year and the Fuzion tires DO NOT HOOK good at all.When the tac hit about 3.5k in 2nd gear the rear was pulling that side to side crap..fun but not good.I used Kumho's before on the GT and they where much better,but I like the KDW's the best.
Also this car just seems so much smoother than the GT did.just seems to ride smooth,feels stiffer,running through the gears is real smooth, and seems quiter when running 70-75 on the highway.What also seems weird to me after having this the last few days...I kinda miss the GT,
ive only had it for the last 5 years.But driving the mach does help take my mind from it.

I know about the pics,my camera is going out I guess,it will not take accurate pics.
Its the camera throwing the color off,its a much deeper and inc yellow stang from up the road and they are definatly not the same.
And yes I do feel a lil lucky.
Also one of the amps are out for the 5x8's in the door,they got me a new one ordered,some moron had an amp and subs wired up and it wasnt done right,they spliced into that amp.Dealer said no prob wasnt my fault and they corrected it for future warranty issues.

Its not your camera, its really hard to get yellow to pop on camera, especially under extremely bright sunlight. My canary yellow 95 does the same thing when i try to catch pics of it....
Well maybe if I try messing with some of the lighting filters on my camera I might be able to get a more accurate pic,I wouldnt have thought of yellow being a hard color to get a pic of.Thx for the info.

Thx,
Yeah thats what I was gonna do with my GT.Mach 1 apperance package(mainly for the shaker,grill delete,chin spoiler)$1100,repaint-$3600,rims&tires-$1000,exhaust/headers-$1200.Thats $6900,$5700 if I dont count exhaust plus all the other bolt-ons that I wanted....it was just cheaper to buy a new car.This way the Mach package,repaint, and rims are taken care of....thats saving me $5200 roughly.Now I can spend that cash towards exhaust,bolt-ons and whatever else,now having the car note doesnt really matter cause that cash for the mods doesnt come from that money anyway...comes from other sources.Also I didnt pay much more for the Mach than what I did for the GT in '03($14,500 in perfect condition).Only bad thing about trading off the GT was that in the last month I spent $2000 on it,tranny rebuild,steeda cable/quadrant firewall adj,motor mounts,trans mount,plugs,Ram clutch kit,clutch fork,Tri-ax shifter and other misc crap,then at the last minute I decide to trade...wasnt the smartest thing to do...
Now I have to wait a couple months to do anything to the Mach,not only did I get this last week but I also bought my wife another car,2001 Taurus from another Ford dealer,perfect condition,52k on the ticker,not a scratch for $6k cash paid for,better than the Sonoma she was driving.Not only that but she is rebiulding a 1970 Ford F-100 truck that her grandpa gave her,120k on ticker with a 302...its gonna be her toy/show truck...and yes she is doing the work herself,but that also makes it hard for me to do stuff to mine cause I gotta compete for the cash with her...
Ill shut up now.
