New to me 2011 GT

[Ebesneezer]

I'm so happy to finally share a picture!

I took delivery of my Mustang 9 days ago. It's a 2011 GT Premium in black with the MT82, Rapid Spec 401A package, Brembo brake package, 3.73 limited slip axle, and accessory pack 5. There are ~45,000 miles on the clock and the dealer wrapped the wheels with new Falken Azenis FK460 A/S tires before shipping it out.

Other than the infamous ticking noise between 1k and 2k RPM, the car seems to be perfect. The MT82 shifts well although I have no real experience to compare it against other transmissions. It felt a little weird putting the shifter into gear at first, but as I get more confident with it the shifts feel better.

I live in a state that requires a front license plate, but I really don't want to put holes in my front bumper so I'll see how long it takes for me to get caught without one.

They have no-drill front license plate holders. See if any of these work for you.

For now just driver mods haha. I'm still working on my clutch skills and want to get to the point where I can drive without thinking before I start tinkering. I would just do small stuff though like an axle-back or intake.

Definitely! I hope to join the club at my local track so I can put those options to good use.

Nice ride!

I live in TX which requires a front plate, yet I don’t have one and have been fine. Not going to drill holes in my bumper.
