    All Seasons...really?

    Newer Mustangs are a fantastic winter car, they are great - and a lot of fun - in the snow. Anyone who says different is 20 years behind the times. I live in Ottawa, Canada and while I could make do with all seasons, why would I want to? Driving ability has nothing to do with it. The car...

    Advice needed! 2010 vs. 2011

    Wait for the 2011, especially if you are shopping for a V-6. The 4.0 in the 2010 is an unsophisticated truck engine that is ten (or twenty) years past it's due date. It does not rev and it sounds like a tractor = not fun to drive. 2010 Ford Mustang V6 - Second Short Take - Auto Reviews -...

    Upgrading to an S-197!

    Hi folks, I've mostly been lurking here and have always enjoyed the entertainment and information. Now I feel like I can fully join the fun because earlier tonight I traded in my 94 GT on an 05 GT! I just could not pass up the deal, winter in Ottawa and a slumping economy equals a great time...

    what does your user name mean...

    My name is Kevin and the first message board I ever joined was for the band Sevendust. I've used the name on various other boards just to be consistent.

    had a wreck today...

    A lot of people don't seem to know this but the amount you get from your insurance company is very much negotiable, you do not have to accept their first offer. Be firm. When I wrote off my car the insurance company started at $14K and I ended up getting $18,500. I don't know the specifics...

    Ha ha ha....man..I love the torque of a V8.

    One huge benefit of the Shelby (and the Mustang GT for that matter) over the STI or EVO that hasn't been mentioned is this: in the Mustang, quick acceleration runs are repeatable and not *that* hard on the car. Hitting the numbers in the AWD turbo's involves a driveline punishing clutch...

    Insurance with a SC

    My former insurance company (State Farm) refused to pay out on an accident claim because they said I had modded the vehicle beyond the performance capabilities it was originally designed for. This was my Integra GS-R. It had aftermarket wheels and exhaust when I bought it (they took photos...

    08 Bullitt or 08GT

    The Bullitt is a fantastic deal. I ran the numbers last Friday. Canada: It's a $4495 option that includes or replaces the following that you would pay extra for on a GT: 18" wheels @ $900 Leather and Comfort group package @ $1400 IUP @ $895 So basically, you're paying $1300 for all...

    Hey Ford of Canada - WAKE UP!

    For kicks last week, I priced out some new Mustangs on ford.ca and ford.com (optioned as equal as possible): GT/CS: CAD = 38,889 USD = 31,860 Bullitt CAD = 40,289 USD = 31,940 Since our dollars are hovering around equal, this sucks for Canadians. And it gets worse, I checked again...

    Good Mustang Winter Tires?

    Well said, and I understand your reasoning, especially when it comes to road salt. They use a lot of salt here too. When I said "there is no reason whatsoever not to drive a DD Mustang in the winter" I was refering to people who put their cars away because they think the car isn't driveable...

    Good Mustang Winter Tires?

    I've used Dunlop Graspic DS-1's on mine, the car is awesome in the snow. You're probably safe with any winter tire from a recognizable brand. I really don't know why Mustangs have such a bad rep for winter driving. It might be well deserved for the FOX days but since 1994 with the changes...

    Remote Start - How Does it Work?

    I wish they'd offer it as a factory/dealer option on manual tranny cars. I had an aftermarket remote start on my last car and it was fantastic.

    Instrument cluster question?

    It does mention the different cluster in the Canadian Mustang brochures. I happen to have the '05 brochure here at work, here's a quote from page 6: "The optional Interior Upgrade Package adds satin aluminum accents throughout, along with a leather-wrapped steering wheel and a six-gauge...

    Help! Talk me into keeping the Mustang

    That has to be the classiest statement I've ever read on an internet message board. Congrats on your new car and your upcoming child. The Speed 6 is an awesome car, probably what I would choose if I needed four dours and couldn't afford a BMW. I'm sure you'll be back in a Mustang when the...
