Hey,

New to the forums. Just saying hello.

I'm taking delivery of a 2003 Anniversary Edition Coupe (Grand Sport Mag Red) on Sunday. It's completely stock atm, and I've already started eyeing mods. Headlights are likely going to be the first thing I change. I've decided to go with the "sunguns" the next time a group buy comes up.

When I saw the thread title I was hoping this was a new mileage record as the current one is somewhere in the 400s.

I read an article yesterday about a woman with an early sixties model Mercury she had to quit driving because of her eyesight. She bought the car new in 64? or there abouts and it has almost 600K on it. She was on the Tonight show in 2010 and she said if Jay wanted it, she would sell it to him.

Here if anyone is interested
