How long did it take you to get it on the wall like that?

@stresstest , I loved the way the car drove. Coming from a 2004 WRX this car was head and shoulders above in every way performance wise. I also enjoyed the grown up look of the car. Still cool, but not like high school kid type cool.
Hate part of the car was shit build quality. The interior rattled like a coffee can full of nuts and bolts. Battery also wouldn't hold a charge for more than 5 days (remedied by dealer). Even for Subaru, that was an anomaly. IMHO, I wasn't gonna keep paying for a $30k+ car that I hated. I had enough. (This was my third suby btw 2 WRX's and my ex-wife's Legacy) It didn't take much of a push for me to get into the Mustang.
I also had one of the worst dealerships in my area. They were worthless and I was happy to tell Subaru on every occasion. Nothing changed.

Kinda figured you'd bring up the build quality. I hear about that and the rattles often from owners I know

It was my third subaru and I was used to a few rattles from the 2004. My ex-wifes legacy also wasn't immune from the rattles, but they were few and far between.
The 2015 was just embarrassing to be in. Everything rattled. The lack of trust with the local dealer also wasn't inspiring. They had my ex's car for the better part of a month working on one single rattle. They were so incapable of fixing that, they had to call a Tech from Subaru USA to fix it. :headbonk:
Something that I also missed was the sound of the boxer motor. In 2015 they started using equal length headers and I really missed the old thumper sound.
All of those things just added to my frustration. I haven't missed the WRX since getting the GT. I had vowed to never buy an American made car again, but Ford has won me back. I'm really impressed with the S550.
I will miss AWD in bad weather situations, but those were rare when I got to really use it for it's intended purpose.

Finished installing APR Carbon Fiber Wind Splitter and the RTR Side Rocker Splitters. Real happy with them.

Basic interior & exterior $22 for cars, but can take up to an hour due to their long lines and meticulate process.

That seems like a fair price. I go to a hand wash close to my house just bit north of Austin and they charge $18.00.
Like you said, Wesley, it takes an hour so b/c they're usually busy and they do a very detailed job even for a basic wash. I've noticed they finish the exterior off with a nice detail spray.
I swap off letting them wash the car about every weekend and I wash it myself the next weekend.
Have never used one of those auto car washes on the Mustang so I've avoided swirls and scratches.
Your car looks killer as always. :cheers:

Someone hit my car in the parking lot a few days ago. The grille got pushed in on one side, so I figured I would upgrade while the bumper was off. No damage to the bumper, but a couple mounting tabs on the absorber behind the bumper snapped.
