Dang, rough crowd. With friends like these who needs enemies? Remember, everybody has got a red sports car. What you want is that unique color. The color that will set you apart from everyone else. Set you up a notch or two more.
But barring that, red is damn fine on a Mustang!! [This message has been edited by 67stang (edited 11-27-2003).]

You'll hate yourself when the '05 comes out. You'll feel betrayed. You'll wonder why you ever signed the paper (almost like a marriage license!!!). Then the ol' Peggy Lee song will start to play. "Is that all there is" Wait another year. LOL!!

Another dealership has three; a yellow automatic, a torch-red five-speed, and a competition-orange auto.... (I wouldn't want an automatic) Has anyone else seen one in competition-orange? ... or should I say Calypso-Coral?

I've found several Machs around but I'm trying to be good...The red one came back to the lot (the one that started all this)... Daddy found he couldn't affor insurance for 16-year-old-sonny-boy to frive that car.... Shouldn't you check that out FIRST?? ------------------ "Life isn't like a box of chocolates ... it's more like a jar of jalapenos. What you do today might burn your ass tomorrow.
