Love the White, was wondering if it's a glossy white or is it slightly metallic or pearlescent? I'm torn between the Oxford white and the Magnetic.

Congrats on the purchase, would love to hear more about your driving experience with the EB once you get more of a chance to stretch its legs.

It's definitely not metallic or pearlescent, just a nice clean glossy white, IMHO. Originally I had my heart set on Magnetic, until I saw DIB in person. When I went to the dealership to drive a DIB GT I saw a white PP GT and was awestruck. I loved the contrast with the black wheels of the PP. But, I was kinda bummed because I knew I didn't want a PP car and I didn't really like any of the other stock wheels available on the base Mustang. When I saw this car with these wheels (which are a really dark gray) I really liked it as it provided the same contrast that I liked on the other car.

As far as driving impressions of the EB, I LOVE it. There was always part of me that wanted the turbo, but I wasn't sure if I'd be able to live with myself if I didn't get the V8. After driving it for a week or so, even in the inclement weather, I know I made the right choice. Don't get me wrong, I liked the GTs that I drove, but the EB felt more nimble and balanced. It's an absolute blast to drive, especially with the stick. The power is there when you need it and is more than enough to get around slower traffic and to have a little fun at the stop lights. I also love rolling the window down and hearing the turbo. I can't wait to get my CAI so I can really hear it.

We finally had some decent weather and the car was clean. So, I stopped on the way home and grabbed a couple pics. I pass this little old abandoned gas station/bait shop when i take my alternate route home. I always thought it could be a good place to take some pics.

Love the new photo spot! I have not seen alot of ecoboosts on here with those wheel options. I have them same, and while I wasnt in Love with them at first, they have definatly grown on me. Some wider tires and ill be happy.

Yeah, I actually prefer these wheels to just about all of the other stock offerings (except the 20's and maybe the GT PP wheels) I wasn't sure based on the pics on Ford's website, I thought they were more polished than they are. Once I saw them in person I was pleasantly surprised.

I'd say a few months and pp GT wheels will be resonable

Small update:

New shift knob, shift boot, e-brake boot, and arm rest cover.

Also installed my Redline hood struts today and am waiting for my MAP intake to arrive - should be here this week.

Installed my MAP cai this morning. It's raining again here in DFW, so could get any good pics outside. I'll try to get some pics in better light. I had it powdercoated white and I think it looks great.
The sound is awesome, haven't really had a chance to test performance sure to aforementioned rain.

Now, I really need to dress up the engine bay some more. Plans include painted fuse box cover, engine cover, and whatever else I might think of.

Also, huge shout out to Adam at MAP who went above and beyond to ship the intake to me after a crazy delay at the powdercoater.

Not the best pic, but I got my roof wrapped. I'll get better pics once I'm able to clean up the car (I'm not supposed to wash it for a couple days.

That's a great looking Ecoboost. The black-wrapped roof is a nice touch. Well done.
