Our neighbors must think we are rich. I bought my car a little over a week ago:

'96 V6 Rustang (5 speed)

I'm overly excited because it is my first car with NO dents!!!

but the strangest thing is that it seems to get more looks than my MR2 did.... weird....... maybe it's just people making fun of me

Will do sir

On that note... I will have to watch myself in this thing. It really isn't a chic car and I swear it will beat that 'stang to 80. Also, I've discovered that, with the top up, there is a HUGE blind spot where I have to trust my mirrors. (My MR2 had such great visibility that I stopped using my mirrors... I turned into a real rubber necker.)

Another thing I have to look into is some kind of water repellant for the top. 12 hours in the sunshine and it was still a little damp. The reminds me, the only thing I don't like about convertibles is that I can't lower the top wet or when it's below 41'. That makes me a little sad... I'd have my t-tops out until 32'. Maybe I can unbolt the top..................
