I actually considered a 5.0 Mustang when I was car shopping, but decided to go with another Sedan. As I said in another thread I really like what Ford did with the new Stangs. Great looking car in and out.

Congrats!!!
Thank you sir. Yes, the improvement over the previous stangs is night and day, even among previous gen owners. 20 min test drive was all it took for me, plus the reviews by car editors, ESP when they compared it to an m3 for 1/2 the price.

Thanks you sir. I love them too. I like to blend the non HDR nd HDR images from time to time. Here's a couple more: the last pic is non HDR and just a regular pic.

Haven't used blacklight in a couple months...been using Victoria Red, Fuzion, and Souveran. So, I coated Marilyn in Blacklight today, V7 tomorrow. Made me miss this combo.

Thanks guys... a few mods already. I listed it in my first post.

Some new pics.

Took some over labor day. Saw a couple places that had great backgrounds. I included HDR and regular photos beneath it. Marilyn was wearing 2 coats of Vic Red.

Enjoy.

Alright... Here's my last set of photos for the year. Weather is getting down to mid twenties tonight. If it warms up again, maybe another photoshoot...but for now, I wanted to get out one last time and enjoy the leaves while they're on the trees....somewhat.

My latest pics I took today, just so happens to show my new exhaust and tips. Love me some Borla. I am SO glad I got these puppies. For you avid detailers out there, Marilyn has 3 coats of souveran, after washing and drying with FK425. Prior sealant on there is 4star UPP. I also took a better video showcasing the borla exhaust.

Pics are regular, non HDR. I didn't bother using my promaster circular polarizing filter.

Thank you sir. My knees buckle whenever I start her up and get greeted with that level of acoustics.

thanks man. The pricing is public knowledge in terms of MSRP. But you can get a new 5.0 anywhere's from 31k to low 40's, all depending on options chosen. Really can't find a better deal for $$$ performance wise....

LOL... there's ALWAYS good deals, mang Just gotta know how to negotiate. I sure hope you don't pay MSRP when you buy your cars... that is, unless you are buying a ferrari or something. Then maybe you can pay above MSRP, that's ok

Thanks Terdonal. Color pop is what I strive for... as well as flake pop. A good buffing and LSP always helps achieve that.

Amen brotha. Heck in my sleep, they PAID me to take one home. hehe.

I know right? I have had it on for a few days, and I swear, I can't get over how GOOD it sounds. I mean I thought my GT500's sounded good?!?!?! I always just saw the Borlas on vid, so I didn't think anything of it. Then when I heard it in PERSON from my buddy with a 2013 5.0, I knew I HAD to have it. It sounds better than my GT500 by a mile.

thanks for kind words bro.

p.s. my TSX is smooth and quiet... funny how they are polar opposite cars.

Lol no usually I pay a few thousand under msrp but since the new mustangs are actually a nice car some dealers try pushing them for msrp if not above so was just wondering how good of a deal you got, because your 5.0 is making me want one but of course white auto

You're killing me! I want a DSS drive shaft... then springs/dampers...then some axel backs.

Yes...the TSX and the Stang are definitely polar opposites. After the antiseptic environment of my TL, I must say...I really enjoy feeling, and hearing a car with some soul.

VLED switchbacks on my 5 ohhh

Wow, that's 2 mods in less than a week. We need to thank our wives more often... lol.

That being said, I received my VLED switchbacks today. I installed them in about 10 minutes or less. I guessed correctly on the polarity of one of them, then switched for the next one. Easy Peasy.

I must say, this is another one of my FAVORITE mods. They look so OEM. At 5000k temp, they are bright enough to be seen during the day and at night, without looking like 12000k uber blue/white ricey lights that you see on other cars when they go aftermarket. You know what I mean? These babies are perfect. No resistors either. Plug and play. Big kudos to VLEDs for making a great product. I might look into VLEDs for my foglights and rear plate lights.

Anyways, here are the pics I took after I installed them after I came home from work, then a short video right after I installed them, then a video tonight out in the dark in driveway. (I had to edit my last video, because I tried turning on my HID's and Hoen Fogs to see how they would look with the VLEDs, but the camera washed it out...couldn't see squat...lol)

I will shoot a daytime video tomorrow and update this thread. I wonder how truly bright they will be in sunlight.

I truly need something like this for the TSX. Tori feels left out. Anyone recommend a good VLED for the DRL's on our car?
