I thought I would start a build thread to track the evolution of my 2014 Mustang GT. My goal is only to have a quick, affordable, good looking, reliable, and fun-to-drive pseudo sports car. Not interested in having a 600+HP race car or being fast down the quarter or track.
My vision for Vivian is two staged. The first stage will take place over the next two years: No engine mods - only axleback exhaust with suspension and appearance mods. The next stage will be to put a Roush TVS supercharger on my 5.0 and full exhaust, hoping to put down around 500 HP. I just want a "set it and forget it" weekend warrior that is very reliable. On to the build...
Purchased Vivian on August 30, 2013.
