Sounds like you are as much a fox body fan as I am.

The 07 GT is very nice! My parent's have the 2007 GT as well - I will have to post pics of that later. Did the Ford Racing suspension make an amazing difference? We thought about it but didn't want to lower it at all because we thought the looks of the tire/fender reveals were absolutely perfect with the stock suspension. I keep trying to convince them they just need to trade up to a GT500, but that is a no go. Maybe after they bring the 5.0 back in 2012 I will be getting into another one myself! :)

Yeah, I still miss the square light look of the 86 every now and then.

I wouldn't call the FRPP stuff an amazing difference, but it's certainly noticeable. I went with Tokico struts and shocks because I was told that the FRPP dampeners were harsh. The GT handled pretty well stock, but the FRPP sway bars definitely make the car flatter. I had to lower mine because I thought it looked like a 4WD at the stock height.

After having fox bodies for so many years, it's amazing the improvements they've made with the Mustang with these S97's. The only thing my 07 doesn't do better than my heavily modded 95 did is stop. But I had Cobra brakes on the 95.
 
Here are some of the other cars my family has or had:

Here's the 1965 Mustang coupe that my dad and I took over 10 years to restore. It was fun, but we definitely realized we preferred the modern comforts and the quiet interiors that newer cars have to offer.

My brothers 1979 Firebird Formula 400:

My parents' 2001 Mustang GT (obviously the date on the pic is wrong :D) - we did the graphics ourselves and put a Mach 1 open grille on it after an antelope mishap. There is also a 2002 GT that was one of my former room mates in the background.

I don't have pictures of their 1973 Corvette Stingray or their current 2007 Mustang GT, unfortunately. I am sure I will get some of their '07 Stang, but I am pretty sure there are no Vette pics to be found.

You guys are car whores!

:D

It is kind of bad, isn't it? :rolleyes:

I guess it is in the blood. It doesn't feel excessive, however, because they only have one middle-class level fun car at a time, rather than a giant warehouse full of cars like those Jay Leno types. :)

2007 Mazda 3i Touring. I haven't done anything to it except the new tires I recently got. Looks great and is fun to drive but has a nice smooth quiet ride at the same time. Love the 5 speed. Love the interior that looks and feels like it should be in a much more expensive car. I wanted the deep metallic blue color but it was nowhere to be found in this state at the time I bought it and finding one in blue with the 5 speed would have been next to impossible. :(

Do you pull that Airstream with it? ;)
 
The 1963 Airstream is actually pulled by a 2001 Chevy Silverado.

The Airstream is in the process of being polished.



The airstream used to be pulled by a 1977 Ford F-250.

The trucks and trailer are my fathers, not mine. :)
