Default New ride in Houston
Sold my 2009 G8 and picked up a 2011 mustang gt as a daily, red metallic with auto and no options. I'm sure I'll get flamed for this on here but I didnt need the 4 doors so I picked up a lighter platform. Need to break it in with some fun on the street but havent found anyone wanting to play.

I looked at the 5.0s too. I would rather keep the G8 until I can get a vette though.
