    I know it's not a Maverick but I had to share. She plans on Racing it thats why I posted it here. 2011 1SS, 400HP, got to admit it runs great. I get to drive it and she makes the payments. Not a bad deal...:burnout: downsize_original.jpg

    Nice!

    That's my wife's favorite GM color (right now). Looks like a lot of fun! :drive:

    Where, at the Chevy dealer? :rofl2:

    I'm thinking Robbie didnt give his wife a good enough sales pitch for a 2011 Mustang. Or maybe his wife is a stubborn chevy girl.

    Had a Challenger at the track Saturday night, Was dialed in at 14.20.
    I heard there was one up from Mexico on Friday nights T&T. He had a Whipple supercharger on it and was running low 10's.:cry:

    Wow, a girl at my son's high school just got a new Camaro last fall that same color......

    It's not a bad color....just unusual, very bright and very, very,...uhhh... obvious! LOL

    I honestly didn't think I'd see another Green one like that anytime soon

    That color is pretty popular around here. My neighbors son has one and I see a couple every morning during my commute. Drove by a dealer the other day and they had 4 that color on the lot.

    A buddy of mine just got through building a Honda Civic :vomito:that he painted that color. Not a big fan of green {except on $ :D}, but that's kinda like some of the wild colors from the 70's that look OK.

    The wife has loved that car since it came out then they made it in GREEN....LOL We were finally able to buy her one. They are not making that color for 2012 so we jumped on the 2011. Only 3 left in all of AZ. (new). :burnout:
