Hey guys, been lurking a ton here the past two weeks or so so i figured i might as well go ahead and sign up and start contributing to what seems like a great site.

Name is Jerry and i also go by this name over on the Corral if any of you ever read/post over there.
Little car background, ive been driving modular powered mustangs for 15 years now and love them, I still own two of them, a 98 GT convertible and a 2004 Competition Orange GT coupe.
Ive never owned a "tuner" type of car and in fact never even a FWD car... reason i started looking is because as my 04 Mustang has gotten more serious I would like something i can DD and still have a lot of fun in. I was wanting a 10+ SHO but tbh the more i looked into them the more i realized they arent as sporty as id hoped. Just a nice ass luxury type car with a lot of power.
So that led me here... and while i have def taken into account the slight issues some of these cars are having im sure overall its a great car. I test drove an IS ST3 recently at my dads lot (he is GSM of local Ford dealer) and it was really fun to drive.

Im still looking into other options, like a new F150 or waiting to see if a nice used SHO falls in my lap, but so far it looks like it with be an ST sometime in the next few weeks.

couldnt tell if that pic worked or not, but here are some pics of the 04 referenced in OP

As it sits here its making a tad over 600rwhp. It has a John Tymensky built aluminum .020" over 4.6 block with a Cobra crank, H-beams, and Diamond pistons.
11:1 compression 2V with stock ported heads and pretty sizable nitrous cams. Has an NX dual rail, 4 solenoid, direct port kit on it and a Nitrous Outlet dedicated fuel system.
ProMotion Performance built T56 with Aston Martin input shaft, carbon sych's, billet keys, etc.
I daily drove it like this for about 2 years but recently took it apart to build a new turbo setup, and now i feel like i dont wanna drive it everyday anymore so...
