Nito's Mustang
Here's my 1993 Ford Mustang LX. It's my first car since I bought it for $2700 back in August 27, 2004, and I'm it's 3rd owner. It's no rocket, since it's powered by a 2.3L SOHC I4 (With over 130,000 miles clocked in) backed by a 4AOD transmission, but I'm not worried about that right now (And at least I won't lower myself by putting a bullshit 5.0 badge on a 4-cylinder car ;) ). It's better than a Civic or beat-up Olds by all means no matter what. I originally wanted a 5.0, but all the one's I've seen were unfortunatly in rough conditions or were way too expensive, and insurance would've been a bitch for a teen like me (See Page 10 for a full story of my Mustang shopping coherts). It's a fun mode of transport though, and handels corners pretty damn well at speeds with responsive steering, and I'm satisfied with just that. I plan on dropping a turbo 2.3L from a Thunderbird Turbocoupe or Mustang SVO later on down the road, although I'll most likely save up money and go hunt for an SVO or 5.0, keeping this LX the way it is and with the family (Since I've done so much to it, I can't imagine getting rid of it). Might even get an SVT Focus (I really like those cars; They're FWD, but it's a Ford). But it's asthetics and restoration/refurbishing time with this car until then.
On top of that, I just love saying "I own a Mustang!" :D
American Patriot? Damn straight! God bless America and our military troops, both veterans and current fighters in the Middle East!
Tropical Storm Arlene ruined my chance to wash the car. :(
See all those burnout marks?
That's mine; A tiny mark, singular, because of my open-differential and low horsepower. I need a 5.0 and an LSD. :P
My Mustang and my dad's Scion xA; Two members of the low-horsepower club. :P
The guilty (Non-legal) owner!
24/7 rider Shinobu Maehara (Love Hina).
No longer VIP to PRP; Can now be spotted in St. Matthews!
8/17/05 - Neighbors just bought a really nice 2005 Mustang V6 convertable, red! I'm jealous!
Out at my school's parking lot - My Mustang LX, Evan's Mustang GT, and Justin's Civic Si! BIATCHES!
And so I got bored and photoshopped the first picture into this signature. :D
I go into the St. Matthews Mall parked next to some SUV and sedan, and I come out with 2 Mustangs parked next to me; A GT convertible and a V6 coupe. Mustang enthusiasts hang together and know what's up, regardless of engine type! :D
