Default Finally fulfilled a dream!

Hello all.

Florida owner here. Just purchased a 2004 Commemorative Edition Convertible with 24K mikes!

Ever since I was a young adult I dreamed of owning what I considered to be the ultimate American sports car!

Had my eyes set on obtaining a 50th anniversary edition convertible but found this 1 mile from my house!

Just discovered this forum and have spent some time reading up the various threads here. Great resource!

My car is stock but I have some plans to swap out the audio and perhaps going the double bezel route. Tires are original so I'm about to put some Nitto 555s on her.

Will take some pics and upload at a later date.
