Well the wife and I picked up a new car show car. We got a 05 Mustang Gt premium. It's definitely a fun little car.

How have you been Lee? So, what's the scoop with the car? We need some specs. 
Nice! It's been a while, I have to admit, I'm not on here much. How are things going?
Even going pretty good. Stated a new job beginning of the year. Left the aftermarket car shop and now work at Midco. It's a TV/wifi provider for my area. Liking it so far.
Well we are the third owners of it. Has around 120k on it. It is the 4.6 3 valve engine which is currently stock for now besides a cold air intake and Flowmaster cat back exhaust. It is currently lowered with just springs. Has aftermarket wheels. I am updating the lights to led's and so far I have done the taillights, third brake light and rear side markers. Headlights will be coming soon once back in stock. Has an aftermarket ram air hood with custom air brushed flames. Of course I got it tinted.
Interior is really clean and in great condition. Lots planned for it but it will all be over time.
I'll add more pics of the stuff I did...
Taillights, 3rd brake and side markers...

And also added a Bmr Suspension Strut tower brace as I am wanting to give it a nice suspension setup to go to the road race track on open track days.

But it's a 3 valve Ford. The 4.6 can have the same issues as the 5.4.
I was told the 3v was a pretty reliable engine. Have a friend that has one with over 2k on his with no issues.

They have problems with them blowing out spark plugs. And problems with the VVT. The spark plug design changed from the earlier years but they still shouldn't be trusted.
