We're talkin about a mustang 5.0, not some Camaro.

I remember the 03/04 Cobras were nightmares on the paint.

I found a single chip in the paint the other day, so small you can't hardly see it. Pretty sure that happened here locally though. The paint on these cars is pretty tough.

LOL..good to know.


How many miles do you have on the new motor now?

Would be fun, just not my thing, thats why I have VWs. lol

Wife and I put 2500 miles in 19 months on her Vette... that was more than I put on the other C5 I had by almost 2x. Put 5K miles in 3.5 years on my C6.

Not my cup of tea either. But my 02 I35 needs an oil change, tire rotation, etc.

The stang is ready to roll so I'm just gonna bite the bullet and drive her.

Since I purchased the 100k mile warranty, If I only had a 36k mile I wouldn't do it.

Overall I just hope I don't have any problems with the highways and hope to get some good pics I can post up!

Do it! Have fun and be safe. :)


I've been thinking about this evening and Danny is right, I just need to go out and enjoy my car and quit worrying about it getting messed up. I'll just have to clean it more often but I enjoy that so it's all good. :)

Stop babying that beauty, Danny. If you don't have 5k miles on that car by Jan 1, I'm stealing your wheels. :D
