I picked it up Wednesday in Western Kentucky with 5.1 miles on it. We took some pics, signed the papers, then I pulled it out of the show room. I took it out onto the main road and layed into it, nothing. I knew that it took some miles and/or key cycles for boost to come on, just like 03/04 Cobras. After a few more miles I got some boost. I drove a customers car about 6 months ago, and I forgot how quick they really are even stock.
Red/white with the only options being sirius radio and GT500 trim package. I have been seriously looking for about 3 weeks. A very small Ford dealer had ordered the car for a local customer, it finally came in last week. The car took so long that the original customer no longer wanted it (he bought a Vette, don't hate, I seriously considered it). I payed a premium for it $51,000+++, but still feel I got a decent deal.

Yes that is a VMP X2 plugged into it on the showroom floor.

I drove it 200 miles from KY to TN where I was staying with a friend. Then packed it up and trailer it the 650 miles back to Florida.

Everyone is wondering what my plans are for it. I will definitely make it faster than my V6. I will be doing a VMP tune, VMP intake, and 2.6 pulley this week. Then it's time to think about blower swaps. Eventually a TT kit will be in order. Sometime inbetween I am thinking about 3.73s and a driveshaft.
