I didn't take any pictures because it was Feb. and therefore cold. But I remember it well. So very stressful, it wasn't to me at the time, cheap.

The day I got my 2008 Mustang V6

The day my dad sold my 2008 Mustang V6

The view is from my 2011 Mustang GT

The funny thing is we sold it back to where be bought it from. It went full circle.

The day I bought it. Which if memory serves 1 year of ownership is approaching in the next month.

It'll be a year ago in five days that I decided I needed something to keep my first safe from another winter's duty.

And I'm so glad I decided when I did.

Day number one.

Normally my cars look a lot more beat up after a year and a half. Happy to report that isn't the case this time.

Yup, February 18th. First night I saw it. Knew instantly it was the one as soon as I saw it parked there.

Then Friday it was all mine! Took so many pictures Saturday morning...

So many memories!

I don't care if your car is a money pit, you're not allowed to sell that unless you replace it with a twin turbo variant of any of the 90's japanese supercars.

I think I still have pictures of all my cars from the first day I brought them home

Marauder at the dealer aug 2007

Home on the first night

Agreed. The front bumper was taken off within a month, because it was terrible. Will trade soul for rear shorty bumper.

MR. PEDANTIC ALERT:
Different colors socks.

DAMN You are good! The first socks were actually a gift from my girlfriend because they are like having angels constantly massaging your feet with feathers of an evangelical ostrich. The others are just white.

I just recently got some new socks, and now all the time I have that exact same feeling. Apparently I need to get new socks more often.

And another from the same day, at the beach.

And after it's first snow, 2 days later in Alabama. The snow had disappeared by that point.

Unless Oppo/Jalopnik wants to fund my build/maintenance, I'm not sure if that's possible :(

Wet socks are the most uncomfortable feeling in this world.

you have the coolest stable of cars I have ever seen. Damn even the way you park your awesome bronco is badass. I always knew I had a mancrush on you but now its official. Also we're 4.6 bros. Whats that sharky color called on your e23? Whats done to the marauder?

I always knew I had a mancrush on you but now its official.

I wish it worked that way on women

The marauder has an eaton swap and makes 436rwhp, the bmw is supposed to be cosmosblau metallic but it has some shit maaco single stage respray on it. I'm going to get it repainted nice when I can afford to.
