mmm, I kind of want that Shelby spoiler now. Is there any work necessary or does it bolt in the stock location?

Shelby spoiler ftw.

Bolts on existing non cs pkg stang. Just a pita to remove the stock spoiler.

While your Post Processing is on point, you need to find better locations for your shots!!!

Thanks. I could not agree more. Circumstance, timing, and living in this $hitty city, you get what you get. I'm lucky I drove home with my car intact. lol

Amazing photos! Love the HDR. So much detail and color pop.

The Mustang looks great. Was looking at a 2013 GT/CS for a while... makes me regret not going with it. Just for a bit. :P

thank you kindly. You didn't get a 13? shucks. I think the GTCS for 13 looks better than the standard. But I looove my 12. What did you end up getting?

You live here too? Very cool. I only see a few TSX's. If you have a TL with those mods, I probably would recognize you. Only a few of those too. I bet yours is the best TL anywhere close to here....

I test drove the '13 GT with the 5.0 and 6MT several weekends ago. It was awesome and drove like a dream. I really really love the '13 GTCS in Performance White.

Anyways, since it would be my sole car I found it wasn't quite practical, especially for the Midwest winters here. Also looked at the STi and TL. Ended up putting a deposit down for a '12 TL SH-AWD 6MT Tech last week. Waiting on it now!

But man, I love that Mustang over any comparable RWD sportscar. She's a beauty!

You know what makes the best backdrops around? Corn.

Make sure you get some tractors in the distance too.

are you using Autofocus or Manual?

or using a DSLR at all?

the HDR hides the blur well, but in the original shot you can tell whatever you're using to shoot is having trouble focusing..

beautiful color for that car.

Yes sir. Marilyn is pure thrills. Today, I was able to open her up a bit. God, what a stress relief. Pure ecstasy. NOTHING sounds like a Ford V8. Nothing. I love my TSX too of course, but from a more serene, calm, sophisticated, viewpoint. Pure insanity needs tho? Enter 5.0 and all 420hp.

My 18/55 Nikkor lens is going kaputz lately. I SHOULD have switched to manual focus. Stupid lens ruined a few shots for me. Shots would be more clear if I did manual. I am in the market for a better lens.... soon.
