Howdy all, just thought I would introduce myself. I am following a build one of your members (CAT600?) is doing. I figured I would drop in, check it out and say "G'day!". I have had quite a few Fords in my time but I am the current proud owner of a 2003 Torch Red Mustang Cobra 10th Anv. Edition. I happen to love cars in general and am pretty instrested in checking out all your cars. Hope to see you around.

Welcome to the forum, love the mustang. In the way of mods do you rate Roush Performance Products and his work with the Mustangs highly, I`ve seen some of his work and would give anything to get my hands on a P51a or any other of his Limited Edition Cars for that matter. enjoy some of Aussie finest Fords on this forum.

Thanks for the compliments fellas. I appreciate it. She goes pretty well, should be up over 500rwhp (not sure what this equates to in your kw) as soon as I get her tuned in May. Should be mid to low 11 second quarter. Has alot of suspension bits as well.
tegreg888: I really like some of Roush's stuff. He does a great job customizing cars, one of the most popular aftermarket Ford performance part manufacturers. Check out Steeda and Saleen if you get the chance as well.

Handles great, suprisingly well actually. My car before this was a 2004 Subaru WRX/STI putting 367hp/374tq to the wheels. That car also had a bit of suspension work done and handled amazing. Very good in the twisties as well as the straights. This car isn't quite as nimble in the corners but much quicker in the straights.

2 years ago doing a course outside of Boston, I spent at least 2/3rds of it drooling over a Red Stang parked in the carpark. Looked like a Shelby. It would arrive after I had arrived and left before I left so never got a close look at it. Oh but I still dream of that Red Stang...

You guys do have some cool cars, I am still trying to learn which is which. I never really realized how the Aussie cars differed from ours. Thanks for the compliments!

Welcome Boostfiend, love your Muzza. I'll be over your way in August. I'm going to the Pebble Beach concourse on 17th then up to visit friends in Fortuna CA which is just down the road so to speak from Oregon. I'll be looking at a few '69 - 70 Mach 1's and Shelbys while I'm there with a view to sticking one in my garage.
