Old and new car - traded my 2017 convertible on the coupe when I moved back to Michigan.

My 2013 - last I heard it was in Dearborn Heights. I put a turbo on it and blew it up 3 times before setting it back to stock and selling the turbo (and the guy I sold the turbo to blew his engine - even though I told him no way he was going to stay together if he tried to push 12 lbs of boost on the 3.7)

And my favorite one that I should never have sold. A 2006 with an Xcharger Xtreme supercharger on it. Lots of fun with that car.

I don't have a picture of my first one, a black 1965 convertible.

Many times. My 2013 was featured by CDC in 2012 where they did a make over adding a bunch of CDC things for advertising. The first picture of it is after CDC did the make over and the second picture is when I swapped to a cowl hood and had the RTR splitter painted body color after an orange traffic cone fell off a truck in front of me on I-94.

Location of that pic?
In between the outskirts of the Detroit Metro area and Ann Arbor. A very small county park.
There is a big pond (very small lake) very near there. In the Fall, if the overnight temperatures are cool enough the early morning fog forms on the surface of the pond and fill some of the surrounding low lands (the little park). I drove by that place every day going to work. So I kept my Nikon in the trunk, the car clean, my eyes on the weather report, and then made sure to get up early enough to be in position for the picture when the sun was coming up.

https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/ also uses that park for taking pictures for their magazine.

Some of the important points to taking a good picture: are location, composition, lighting, and subject matter.

Dude.....I'm from the area. It looked like Rouge Park, but I'm guessing now that's Hines Park.

Nevermind, it seems like it's some bizarre secret for you.

I am sorry, I saw on your profile "Virginia"...
7734 Plymouth Road, Ann Arbor 48150
1/4 east of Frain Lake

Nothing well known, a retiring farmer donated a small piece of land to the county.

Berkley Mi,

Picked up a new to me '17 Mustang this winter, excited to be back in a 5.0! Getting excited for this warm weather start to stay at some point and clear the salt off the roads.

Looks like we survived another winter, hope to hang out with you guys soon. I am in the Brighton area, and I am probably older than any of you!😂

I'm right here in Sterling Heights, not to far from you. Like mentioned earlier, check out the Michigan S550 page on face book. We try and get together for couple events a year. Another great Cars and Coffee is Detail Garage's on 16 1/2 and Van Dyke. They usually fill the parking lot and have a potable dyno if you want to dyno the car. Hope to see you around this summer.
