Introduce yourself!!

[TallyMach1]

Hello everyone! Long time lurker... joined back when I bought my 2017 Ecoboost. I've had a 1968 coupe, 1983 GLX convertible, 1987 LX 5.0, 1998 GT, and a 2017 Ecoboost. My current Mustang is a 2022 Mach 1. I plan to autocross the M1 some... had a blast hitting cones in my 87 LX years ago. Mods will probably light as the Mach 1 is a pretty sweet parts bin car already.

Thanks for the add! My name is Dakoteh. I’ve used this forum for years just to get information, figured it’s time I join. My first car was a 2010 V6 car with an automatic transmission. I bought my first manual car a few years later which was a 2016 V6 car. Now I drive this 2015 DIB 50th Anniversary Appearance Package Premium GT. It’s pretty stock, has Steeda Progressive Springs, Magnaflow Street Series Catback with an X-Pipe, and a Steeda short throw shifter. Mustangs have been my dream car since I was a child, so excited to meet everyone and see some sweet cars!

Welcome from out of the closet. Nice ride.

Hi Everyone,

My name is Adam and I picked up my first Mustang ever about a month ago. It is a "company" car through my Job with a Landscape Lighting company that I've worked for nearly 11 years now. The boss gave me a financial range to stay within and after 2 months of searching, I ended up with a 2020 Ecoboost with the premium package and Pony package. I've put about 2700 miles on the car since I got it and I really enjoy it for the most part.

In my younger days, I had played around with some street cars and I used to also do some drag racing on sport bikes ( [email protected] on a stock wheelbase ZX-14). I inherited a 2011 Caddy CTS-V Wagon from my Father when he passes but was not able to keep it due to a shortage of space on my property. It hurt to sell it but I wasn't emotionally attached to it and the funds paid for my 2023 GMC Canyon Denali just about in full. Unfortunately, I've become somewhat disappointed with the Canyon (had a 2015 Canyon SLT before the Denali, put 160k miles on it in 8 years) and I plan on trading it in about 6 months when I will no longer have a need for a pick up. I'm contemplating a 20'-23' GT Premium as a personal vehicle even though I have the Ecoboost as a company car. I like it that much!

I am eager to learn more about the S550 platform and I've just recently started exploring this forum, soaking up as much as I can as I go.

Nice ride Adam! I own a 22 GT Premium and can say it's one of the better vehicles I've owned (and that's saying a lot). I've decided to keep mine as stock as possible since modifying is a very slippery slope. I do suggest driving a few GTs in different configurations before buying:

1. GT Premium non-PP with 20's
2. GT Premium non-PP without 20's (wish I had done this)
3. GT Premium PP with magneride
4. GT Premium PP without magneride

That way you can make the best decision for yourself.

Excuse the ignorance, PP - Pony Package? Performance Package?

Hi, Adam. It's Performance. There are PP1 and PP2 packages.

I had that awkward feeling about 3 minutes after I posted that I knew that. I just didn't get back to edit it. Thanks !

Hello, I’m Dan, been getting info from here for a few months so I decided to join. I picked up 2015 GT premium with only 5k miles back in September, traded in my 2006 GT on it. I’ve also had 3 1967 coupes, still have the first one 28 years later, also had a 1979 Capri, 1980 notch and a 2000 V6 mustang. I’m loving the S550, already done 20” wheels and tires, cat back, intake, tune and some lighting and appearance upgrades.

Here’s the day I got it, that’s my 2006 to the right. It had a color shift wrap, CDC shaker, tune and exhaust.

Here’s the new ride. I’ll toss in a picture of my 67 as well.

It’s got a 351w with dual quads.

Hi All, I'm Rick from West Florida. This is my 5th Mustang over the years. And maybe my favorite car I've ever owned.

 

[COramprat]

Hi, I'm Rick and live in South Louisiana. I've been a Mustang owner off and on since November of 1982 when I got my first car. A 1978 Cobra II. Since then I've had a 82 Fox (my ex got that in the divorce), a 96 GT, and still have a 03 Saleen S281, a 66 Coupe and a 16 GT350. I sold a 07 GT500 that I inherited from my dad a few months back. The 66 has been in our family since new.

I used to be a moderator on Stangnet so my screen name may be familiar if you were/are on that site. A run in with an admin on that site drove me away so here I am.

Hey people. This is John, I am currently in SC, but lived in upstate NY in the past 7 years.

I have a 2023 Oxford White GT 6MT with 301A and Active Exhaust which I might be parting ways soon. Just wanted to join the forums to get more involved. Though I might sell this one, I am looking for a Mach 1.

Here are some terrible pictures lol.

Hi,
My name is Mark and I'm from Oxfordshire in the UK and I've just bought a convertible as a daily driver. This is my 3rd Mustang, I used to own a 1969 Mach 1 M code and a 1972 Convertible. I'm looking forward to learning more about the S550.

Thanks for the welcome. Yes I hope I do! It seems to be a well cared for car from a Ford Dealer, so I'm hoping it's a good car.
