    I am selling my '12 GT 5.0 Manual Trans and am selling my FRPP - Power Pack separately which includes the K&N stock size filter and the ProCal Tuner.

    Recalls On 12 Gt? Suspension Noise In Front

    Thinking about taking my 12 GT in for some warranty work - my front suspension "klunks" on some downward drops in pavement so I thought I'd check to see if there are any recalls or other issues I should have addressed at this time. Only other problem I've been having is with the my-sync in...

    Brakes Difference In Brembo Brake Pads From Gt To Boss To Boss Secca

    Does anyone know if there is a difference in the Brembo brake pads comparing a GT Mustang to the Boss to the Boss SECCA? I friend of mine who has a Boss thinks there is a difference. After running the track at Grattan Raceway in MI, I need to replace my pads and want to upgrade. Also, any...

    Digital Tuning Ford Power Pack V K&n Cai

    I have a 12 GT w/Brembo Brakes, 3.55 gear, 6M, etc. I've been considering the options for a little extra power, but I am VERY concerned about the different aftermarket tunes and blowing out #8 cylinder and having no warranty to fix it. Therefore, I am looking at the Ford Racing Power Pack - K&N...

    How much for a stock drive shaft?

    Some of you may have already read my post on the used 07 GT500 I bought from a guy in Chicago and the issues so far. Well, it looks like the seller had broken the stock drive shaft and replaced it with a Powerstroke one-piece aluminum drive shaft with a safety strap/bar. I want to go back to a...

    Bought a used GT500 & Need Advice

    I just bought a used 2007 GT500 from a guy in Chicago. It appeared to be a very good ebay deal, but here's what happened. I took Amtrak from Lansing, MI to Chicago on Saturday. The 4 hour trip took closer to 8 hours by the time I arrived. We met and I had about 30 minutes to check the car...

    Dealer Invoice on GT500

    Greetings, With the current state of affairs, I figure this may be a good time to buy my dream car - Shelby Mustang GT500. I've been watching the listings on ebay for new GT500's and the bidding typically doesn't even hit $40k. I've contacted a couple of dealers, but I need some inside...

    More Accurate - Speedo or GPS?

    I recently bought a Garmin GPS and noticed that the speed the GPS shows I'm traveling in my 06 GT is about 2 mph lower than my speedo. In my other vehicle, the GPS shows about 1 mph lower. BTW, that difference is at highway speeds of 60-80 mph. My question - Which is more accurate?:shrug:

    Order for April? Advice

    My wife and I are ordering an 06 GT convertible and want it in April. We live in Michigan and should be over the nasty weather by then. (Perhaps you saw the Mustang convertible commercial about introducing a convertible in the winter.) One dealer is telling us to place the order in Dec, the...

    Colors & Pictures

    My wife and I are getting ready to order our new 06 GT convertible, but disagree on the color. She wants Redfire, I want Tungsten. When we saw a Tungsten in person - it appeared to have a purple hue to it which neither of us liked. Have other 06 Tungsten owners ever noticed this?? I haven't...

    Ford Website - Mistakes?

    I was on the Ford Website - Build & Price your Ford. When you select a Mustang GT Convertible, the specs say it has 260 horses. Is this a misprint or did they decide to drop 40 hp off the convertible? :damnit: It also appears they mixed up the color pallets for Redfire and Torch Red...

    Today I finally got to test drive an 05 GT w/5sp and all I can say is WOW, I'm impressed. I just sold my 95 gt vert w/5 sp and I've talked my wife into trading her PT Cruiser for an 06 GT this spring. I know we'll have to order one to get just what we want - GT with red/charcoal interior -...

    Need selling advice

    I was in a car accident (not my Mustang) in mid March which totalled out my minivan and my right ankle. I hope to drive soon, but with a cast on my right foot, I can only use my left foot. My 95 GT vert is a stick, so I don't think I'll be driving it any time soon. My wife and I have been...

    BS or what?

    Here's what the salesperson at the local dealer told me after I got them to agree to see me a 'stang GT on x-plan. Is this BS to get me to order right away or is this the straight scoop? "As soon as you decide at the Auto Show what you want - if I were you I would order at that time and not...

    Missing Options?

    Ok some of you may think this is weird, but why isn't there a compass on the new 'stang? Most cars have them now, so why not the coolest car on the planet? Heck, even my wife's PT Cruiser has one. If I've missed seeing it, please let me know. :shrug: I've sat in a GT with the of all options...
