rabrrrrrr is now a proud owner of a (somewhat) new car
and he's pretty darn happy about it!! A car I've wanted for a long time (since high school!) and finally stumbled across for a damned good price.

So what is it? It is a 2003 white Mustang convertible with white leather seats.

It's kind of like this, except with white seats (though otherwise a black interior) and without the black thing on the hood.



Been hella fun to drive - woo hoo!!!

(and yes, this means I've moved from NYC (egads!) to an undisclosed location where I need a car to get around)

1. Automatic, I'm guessing?
How many miles? A lot of Mustang owners drive the hell out of those things.

4. You wanted a 2003 Mustang since high school?
And here I thought you were older than that...

13. Not a 2003 specifically...
:-) The late 60s would be my real preference, but I'm not a car jockey, so a newer one with warranty is more in my expertise. :7

7. Careful..
I have a Fiat Spider convertible and constantly worry about losing my head due to an idiot SUV encounter. I'll probably install a roll bar when I get some cash. Sports cars are so fun if they're driven like they're supposed to be driven.

Have you priced the insurance yet? Cool car you got there.

11. Nice Ride
But does it get 40 mpg? I'd have fun driving it, but wouldn't want to feed it.
and congrats for getting out of town.

15. Dude...sweet!
Is it a GT?

When you want to replace the Ford modular with a tweaked and supercharged 347, let me know... :)
