Default New pony in my stable !!!

I just got back from trading in my Sport Trac for a new pony as a daily driver, yippie!!!!! To be honest, I never liked driving the sport trac, never felt comfortable in it and thought after I had it for a while, it would grow on me. Well, 32k miles later, I still hated it and went and traded it in tonight, got an 02 Graphite GT automatic instead, and it really feels like the world is right now hehe.

And hey Badfish, looks like my Mach is going to keep her chrome shoes afterall, when the black FR500s finally get here, they're going on the 02 GT.
The pic of the GT below is from the dealer website, as soon as I can, I'll post up better ones.....

Thanks ya'll, the dealer had the color listed as "graphite" on they're website, so was mainly going by that description, Mineral Grey works for me too, either way its a great color and I needed something to contrast with the yellow one, I've always liked the way MattJ's car looks with the clean line and no tail, going to do that and drop it an inch or so. The person that owned it previously (I'm the second owner) had little pony stickers all over it, will be spending most of the weekend cleaning those off. She put them on the taillights, headlights (on the Friggin headlights, a crying shame), rear windows, above each GT badge, and on both door handles, not to mention a herd of pony's on the rear window (she made clear areas in the rear window tint so light would shine in and plaster the inside with pony shadow highlights). Other than that, the car is in awesome condition, I couldnt be happier. and no, I'm not rich, I just love mustangs, this is my 8th and i still have a '78 Mustang II that my cousin and I are rebuilding, lil 4 banger, but fun to drive.

I wanted two of the same body style, simple economics, when I upgrade the mach, I can upgrade the GT. The GT will end up with the mach's springs, shocks, struts, brakes, 3.55:1 gears and such, plus can switch the predator tuner to which ever I take on my travels, and to honest, I think the SN95 new edge body style is schweet and I'm a product of the 80's and 90's, and not into the 60's and 70's retro styling. If i want a 60's style car, I'll buy one and fix it up, '68 fastback would be cool, it would have to be a mach though 8-)
