First car was a 92 coupe and my stepdad was big into drag racing so Mustangs were everywhere. He also built race engines for a living so working on cars became a fun learning experience. I also ended up working at a Ford dealer for 5 years so between the first car planting the seed, my stepdad taking us to the track and my work at the time, the Mustang and racing stuff just fell into place.

Always been a Ford guy. Worked at Ford dealer while living in a shithole town. Had a few foxes. Built a '93 cobra for my dads friend. Rode in a 03 cobra, tickled my ball hairs so I bought one.

The movie "Twins" is the reason I fell in love with fox body convertibles. I remember watching that movie as a kid loving the red vert in that movie. Well now I own a red fox vert so now I'm happy.

Used to be a huge viper and old mopar fan until I sat in a roush stage 3 at a ford dealership (back when the dealers used to sell them). Then BOOM, instant mustang fan.

Always hated Mustangs until the new 5.0. Was a defiant Import guy. The new 5.0 just spoke to me. The car itself isnt the best but the engine makes up for it.

Was agressive. Fastest one out of the big 3. Needed to ditch the import scene and the ones I saw last tx2k got me hooked so here I am

as I said in the other thread, this is my first mustang as I grew up a chevy guy and always liked Camaros.

the reason I went with a mustang is because it out performed the Camaro in every way, plus I didn't like the inside of the Camaro. I wanted something fast and I was looking at evos, stis, Camaros, a used M3, and the mustang. after looking at price vs. performance, the mustang won out. so I scooped one up.
