    A couple questions

    I have a couple questions about my new car. 1) A previous owner apparently backed the car into something, causing the paint and clearcoat to crack in one spot at the top of the rear bumper. The pic isn't great but you can see how some of the clearcoat has started to peel. Is there anything I...

    New '05 GT owner here!

    Hey guys! Just wanted to introduce myself, I've been here for a loooong time, just got myself back into a Mustang (and finally a V8). Picked it up this afternoon. It's a really nice car- it's a premium, black leather interior, 5 speed, and only 51,500 miles. I already love it:nice:

    How's the drone on the mbrp axle back?

    I'm picking up a bone stock 2005 GT this weekend and I want to get an axle back on order for it very shortly after that. I've been looking at axle backs for awhile and I really like the MBRP- good price, nice design and I REALLY like the tips. How's the drone on them though? Tolerable? I'm...

    I have a couple turbo engines if anyone is interested...and some wheels.

    Hey everyone, I know I'm not here much at all anymore since I got out of the 2.3L game. But I did want to post this up because it's stuff I need to get rid of and I know it'll just get lost in the for sale forum (which is admittedly difficult to use anyway). First off, I have two turbo...

    What to look for on used '05-06 GT's

    I posted this out in the main discussion area but got basically no response, hoping for more of a response in here.... I'm hoping to get out and start looking at some '05-'06 GT's shortly. However I can't say I'm overly familiar with these cars. What do I need to look for on a used car...

    What to look for on a used car?

    I'm hoping to get out and start looking at some '05-'06 GT's shortly. However I can't say I'm overly familiar with these cars. What do I need to look for on a used car? What are common problem areas? Also, a little off topic but whichever car I get, at some point I'd really like to...

    Wheel question

    Out of curiosity...were 2005's even available with the Bullitt/Torq Thrust-style wheels? Did they come on Premium GT's?

    Car value?

    As I've stated here recently I'm looking around at '05-06 GT's right now. Just in the last couple weeks, one popped up on Autotrader at a dealership a couple hours away from here. It's an '05 GT Deluxe, 5 speed, listed with 35,875 miles on the odometer, and they have it up for $13,990...

    Modified or non-modified?

    Hopefully this isn't a beat to death topic, but when looking at cars is it better to get one that is complete stock? Is one with a few mods OK if the carfax checks out? I ask because I found a guy selling an '05 GT about 200 miles from here that I'm VERY interested in. It has 63K on it, and...

    Going to be soon looking for an '05-06 GT...

    Hey guys! So, in the 12 years that I've been here I have never once owned a V8 Mustang. I am setting out this year to change that. I sold my thunderbird a couple weeks ago, and used that money to pay off almost the entire remaining balance on a 3 year old personal loan- with that (and a...

    Seems kinda sad....

    I just bought a motorcycle last week...it's a 1978 Kawasaki KZ750. Has a 750 CC side-by-side Twin that makes 55 hp. That's only 33 hp less than my old '90 Mustang made off the showroom floor :nonono:

    Who has KYBs or Tokicos?

    Looking at new struts & shocks for my bird, probably just gonna get some '87-93 Mustang struts & shocks. I see lots of places selling KYBs and Tokicos on ebay. Those of you that have them, what kind do you have and how do you like them? KYB GR-2's seem too cheap to be true....Tokico HP's...

    Check Engine light on full throttle?

    I just recently started driving my beater Tempo, and whenever you give it full throttle it very often throws a check engine light during or very soon after. It sticks around for a couple minutes and then goes away. Car runs fine though, is there any way to find out what's causing it? I doubt I...

    Is turboford screwed up or is it just me?

    Tried to go on turboford a couple times this evening, and when I go on it says "Sorry, the password you entered is not correct. 1" and yes the 1 is on there. I didn't enter any password though and it has me logged in. :shrug:
