It's great to own an 8!

This past Friday while my wife and I were on our way to Pensacola, FL for our annual excursion to watch the Blue Angels Homecoming Air Show, we stopped in Panama City to take another look at an 8... then we bought it!

I left my Sport Trac at the dealer and took the 8 on the trip and it was great.

Below is the first photo that was taken just after arriving at Pensacola NAS for the air show. If you look in the sky you'll see an airplane doing aerobatic maneuvers.

This photo was taken after the show.

I've ordered the appearance package, strakes and accents and they will be installed next week. I live over an hour from the dealer and they are going to bring me car and take the 8 to add the parts then bring it back to me, all in a day. I couldn't ask for more.

I don't think it was necessary to point that out. Congrats with the car and nice photo too.

I think you will be VERY happy with the body accessories. The 8 looks great as is; but once you get the goodies on, it looks even better

I'm not sure. That's that way I drove it off of the lot. I actually had them take the car back three times to clean all of the tape residue from the hood, trunk, and top before I would leave.

Thanks for the comments everyone.
