30, married with a ten year old, been through the ringer in life, done more than my share good and bad. We have a GREAT bunch of guys here, this forum will be one of the best out there, I can already tell by the wealth of knowledge, understang and the willingness to help others being shown in the early stages. Thanks for turning me on to this place MT!

It is really nice to have a variety of members here. It is nice to have some older and wiser members for me, because being a young person (19) I know I have some good, honest people that I can get lots of advice from that have been there and all. Cheers guys.

I work in sales, so ocassionally I drive it to work. But it is not for all my clients to know about. People are wierd. We dropped $15k on it and some act like it was a $100k....a few get jealous. So stupid. If you want my life, "you have to take all the things that have happened to me". And some aren't pretty. Plus, I have worked hard to get where I am. I have lived in the same house for 10+ years rather than "trading up." Allows us a few fun things.
Glad to know someone is older than me!

I bought my 02 Brand new too, some little jerk keyed it last year, thankfully he was too much of a moron to do it right and I rubbed it out with my secret weapon, 3m imperial Machine glaze, it the absolute best, but it's like $35 a bottle

Blake that sounds familar, I own my own business and my wife and I park right out front by the office. She drives an 04 Crossfire and I have the 02 GT. Everyone makes comments on how much we spent on cars. We paid 56k for the both combined. These same turds drive away in a new 45,000 BMW. When we bought her car this spring a new mini van or Chrysler Pacifica wagon cost more than the Crossfire. I also get alot of **** about going through a middle age crisis for driving a GT. I raced Mustangs when I was 18, I'm just getting back to my roots. I think they are just jealous that they drive boring cars. Too bad I can't afford the 150K Ford GT, then they could really bitch at me.

january 6th will be the day that ive had my stang for 3 years and its the same day i will be turning 21 and thats the day my mustang will be finally paid off, so i will have a lot of extra cash to forget what i spend it on. It will most likely not be spent on mods . WooHoo cant wait
