[QUOTE="01yellercobra, post: 15532894, member: 35549"] I knew about the Terminators when they came out. I remember wanting one, but being an E4 in the Navy with a family it wasn't going to happen. I did manage to get into a 98 GT when my kids started using forward facing seats. I had big plans for that car. Then I met a friend that had a Whippled 04. I think I replaced a CV boot for him and afterwards he said we need to take it for a test drive. I said cool and started heading to the passenger side. He stopped me and told me I was driving. I put up a bit of a fight, but ended up taking the car for a quick spin. That was my first experience of 600+ HP. Somewhere in this time I joined a local Mustang club and one of the members had a new Mystichrome. I fell in love with the color and my wife had to hear about it for the next 10 years. October of 2005 I had just installed a set of Eibach's on my GT and dropped it off at the alignment shop. My wife was driving and we passed a dealer that had a MG Terminator on the lot. I probably talked about it all the way home. I even went as far as showing her it would be cheaper to mod the Terminator than the GT. So after picking up my GT I drove around the block to the dealer and looked at the Terminator. I test drove it and loved it. But when it came to the numbers I just couldn't do it. That day I ended up driving home in an 01 Cobra. I loved that car, but after basically making it a race car on the street I got tired of the headaches. The wife said why don't I get what I really want. Which was the Mystichrome. It took a couple months to find one. The funny part is she's the one that found it and sent me the link to the ad. So 10 years after falling in love with a Mystichrome I finally had one parked in my garage. We saw a vert at a show this past weekend and my wife said she she could see herself driving one. It would be cool to have a coupe and convertible. [/QUOTE]
