History

Built in Flat Rock, MI on August 12, 2006. Delivered to Magarino Ford in Sussex, NJ on August 21, 2006. Found online around 2AM on August 23, 2006. Came home to Emerson, NJ on August 23, 2006 around 3PM.

Currently averaging 6000-7000 miles per year.

The story of how I found Jessica was mainly all about luck. I borrowed my mom's Lexus RX350 for the first 5 months of my license and my parents didn't give me any hope of getting my own car soon. In August of 2006 my parents told me to get a list of car models I would consider looking at. So I put together my list consisting of Trans Ams, Camaros, Mustangs, Monte Carlos, Firebirds, and some high end imports and Euros. Unfortunately my parents threw out the idea of a V8 immediately because they though I'd "get into too much trouble" and that it was "too much power for an inexperienced driver" blah blah blah. So my mom and I sat at the computer and went online and build the Mustang I wanted sans the V8. Originally she wanted me to get a V6 automatic. No offense to any one with auto but I was not gonna get an auto in a Mustang. I was able to push the deal of if I can only get a V6 then I'm getting whatever options I want in it including the 5 speed manual. So my mom and I weren't finding anything remotely close to what we built online in our general area so we started typing in some other zip codes a little farther outside our area. Still nothing. In a latch ditch attempt we started putting in random zip codes trying to find something similar to what I built. After about 15 minutes of finding nothing we decided one last random zip code and then we would call it a night. We type in the numbers and up comes Magarino Ford in Sussex. The thing is I really feel I was meant to have this car because not only 1 Mustang with everything I wanted came up, but 2 and 1 with the Comfort Group option in addition.

The next day my dad and I go empty out my bank accounts that have had savings bonds and rolled coins being put into them since I was born and come away with about $10000. We originally went to Westwood Ford but they wouldn't cut a deal to have the car shipped from Sussex because they were going out of business (they were actually closed within the next week I think). So instead of trying to get the car shipped to another dealership clsoer we drove the hour or so out to Sussex to pick up the car. When we pulled up to Magarino it was great because they had a lot right next to the road specifically for Mustangs. There easily had to be 60+ brand new S197s of all colors, trims, engine, etc there. The showroom floor only had 4 cars: Shelby GT500, Roush Stage 3, Saleen S281 Extreme, and a Ford GT. It was seriously Ford Racing and SVT heaven at that point. The best part of the whole experience is the salesman made the transaction the easiest sale my father had ever dealt with; he went to his manager with our first offer and was able to work it out within 10 minutes where we didn't even have to haggle. I would definitely recommend buying from Magarino Ford. The salesman's name was Erik Topps and if anyone needs his contact info I still have the business cards he gave me.
