Breaking necks/compliments

[klumpikat]

...within a year I assume to end up seeing a ton of these, as around here it's very common to see any person (young, old, men and ladies ) driving S197's

I agree...bet when the 2016s are all out and about the hype will have died down considerably (with the exception of the owners, of course ).

Could be the Red Line Leather

The night I bought my car back in November, it was funny to see all the salesmen surrounding the car, all excited and congratulating me (usually the salesman who scored gets all of the congrats, ha). Some of them would chime in, showing me the various features. I have not experienced that before. It was like some sort of party.

Every time I go in for service, a salesman or other employee has something nice to say about it, even though they are surrounded by these things all day long. They stare (drool?) at it when I drive up.

An attractive woman can only be more so when surrounded by sumptuous red leather.:love: Boys will be Boys after all...Coyote engine, red leather, and woman driver! They can't wait for your return! Had you bought the Fusion...crickets.

I used to break necks before a few times, but now with the loud ass procharger people either think its bad ass or something is horribly broken with my car.

These cars make everyone look beautiful, my friend. ;)

I would get that all the time with my '04 cobra.


'why's your car whining like that?'


'its supposed to'

'I don't think so, you should have it checked out'

*rolls up my window* hahahaha

There aren't that many around where I live. Surprising since they are made in my state and 40 minutes from my home but anyways, since I bought mine I've only seen sbout 3 or 4.. I'll give a few more acknoledgements a try, but within a year I assume to end up seeing a ton of these, as around here it's very common to see any person (young, old, men and ladies ) driving S197's

I'm about an hour from Flat Rock. Small world...

Took my 8yo son to Sweet Tomatoes restaurant today after his doctor's appointment. When we went to leave, we started to climb in with the top down. As I was closing my son's door and walking to my side, a group of what I think was Japanese men was coming out of the restaurant. They started chatting quickly among themselves and pointing in the direction of my car. I could hear, through the mixture of Japanese and English, that they were saying "Nice car to take to the beach! Top down!!". As I climbed behind the wheel, they were coming to the car next to mine which I think was theirs (there was an empty space between) and they started saying "Oh, 5.0. 5.0. see there, 5.0!" Fired it up and gave a blip of the throttle and the talking quickly increased, and I could hear as I pulled out they were saying "FIVE POINT OOOHHH" over and over with big smiles on their faces. They were still standing in the same spot chatting and pointing when I went around the corner and out of sight. My son was cracking up about it...

hahaha, probably the best one I've heard so far. Had me cracking up imagining it.

I get a lot of compliments, the guy that works the parking lot at work talks to me at least a couple minutes a day about it. I have started to leave work a couple minutes early just so I'm not stuck in traffic trying to get out at the end of the day.

I also get a lot of negative attention. I had a guy in a Chevy pickup tailgating me through the town I live in so close that I knew he was going to hit me. I called the cops and let them know that if he did hit me there was going to be some serious problems. I turned off after giving the guy a friendly hello using my middle finger and he didn't follow. But it has happened a couple of times. Another guy drove by on an exit ramp, honked his train horn (also in a pickup) and then gave me the Diamond Dallas Page Diamond Cutter with his hands. No idea what that meant, but he didn't seem happy about it lol. I couldn't stop laughing, which I think made him even angrier.

It's a fun car though! It is definitely an attention getter, which isn't always great. I'm taking it to a drive in movie tonight in BFE, so it should be fun to see the responses. You would have thought I was driving a Ferrari last year when I went in my 04 330i ZHP.

He would have received a Stone Cold Stunner before he even thought about it.

I was parked on a side street in uptown Charlotte yesterday, came out of a building and saw a lady walking around my Black GTPP videoing it. I heard her say she couldn't figure out what it was. When I walked up, she actually had her kids on face time showing them the car. She had no clue it was a mustang but she loved it.

just parked at jewel (grocery for non-locals), as I stepped out a sheriff pulls up in his crown vic and says "wanna trade cars for the day" then peels out. I think that was a compliment.

Lol. I would assume so. Maybe, he was challenging you to a race? ;)

Stopped by the bank this morning. When I came back out, Amelia was flanked by a black Z06 and a red ZL1. Chit chatted with the owners for a few minutes; they were pretty cool. We checked out each other's cars for a bit, tossed some compliments around, and each laid down a bit of rubber on way out, lol. Good times.
