Jesus, is this a common thing in Texas? I have a friend in college (in MN as well) who recently went back home to Texas where her parents had a brand new Mustang GT waiting for her. If you can't tell, I'm jealous :D

Poor gal, parents must not have loved her

congrats OP, enjoy it in good health. :driving:

Congrats!

Your first mod should be an upgrade to the Sport package 19" Rays and tires. I'll just happen to have a set available after Christmas with less then 2,500 miles on the wheels, tires, and TPMS in mint condition. :tup:

Shameless plug over.

Again, congratulations on graduation and the graduation present.

Merry Christmas!

Rims will definitely be one of my first mods.

nice sir!

first thing i can say is remove the stock cats. i think we can all agree that the stock cats really choke this car down. high flow cat or test pipe, coupled with a cat back will make that thing a whole lot meaner

What does that do to warranty? My mom made sure to tell me all about the extra money they spent on an extended warranty, so don't eff it up.

So, new news... my rear speakers don't work :mad:

When I switch the fade to the Rear speakers, there is no sound. At first I was like oh wait, i don't have the premium sound package, I don't have rear speakers. Then I figured that was silly, so i looked and there are speaker grills... just no sound. There are rear speakers in the base sound package, right?

First of all welcome and congrats on the Z. Thats awesome of your parents to do that for you. As for the speakers in the rear. I could have sworn I read on here somewhere that there is no speakers back there just grill with the standard setup. When you get the upgraded package you get the rear fill speakers. Better off going aftermarket anyways. Well enjoy your new toy. Merry Christmas...

Congrats on the Z and on your graduation! ...Sorry bud, no speakers in the rear on the base, the first thing I did was a full stereo install and 6 speaker replacement on my car, stock system is horrible and I haven't read much good on the Bose either.

haha thats so jankity! Excuse my improper terminology. Sounds like I'm in the market for some speakers, what size are they? 6x9 i'd assume.

What rear wing is that?

Congratulations OP, enjoy it in good health.:tup: here's what my parents gave me when i graduated high school :

The only thing a high flow cat, cat back, our test pipe can legally void is your exhaust (which u will be replacing anyways. Other than that, your good to go. voids nothing else engineor drivetrain related
