    It wasn't any better when the first GTs were becoming available then suddenly the supply dried up because of the IUP delays. You can see the stream of threads concerning dealer gouging going well back through this forum; so seeing Ford Corporate's official response is disheartening. I expect...

    Not to beat a dead horse, but travel back in time with me about a year. "Dear Ford" thread http://forums.stangnet.com/showthread.php?t=592188 Ford still has a whip antenna stuck on the fender.

    Tribal

    Tribal may not be as common as the standard Shelby stripes that you see everywhere, but you won't be alone. I've had a set of tribal graphics on my 'O5 since Feb 2005 and I still have yet to see another Mustang sporting tribal inspired designs. http://forums.stangnet.com/showthread.php?t=530406

    aftermarket RIMS

    As mentioned previously by Big Cat: Best advice would be to see the "Post Pics of Your Mustang" sticky thread set up by Duner.

    Cervini's Eleanor Magnaflow Sideexiting exhaust installed!

    I understand that the cuts are perpendicular to the road surface. Thanks for the additional photo anyways. What I was attempting to ask was whether or not the exhaust exited the vehicle at an angle: What this in effect creates is a pair of visually larger ovals for the tips from a set of...

    Cervini's Eleanor Magnaflow Sideexiting exhaust installed!

    Sweet. Are the tips angled (deli meat diagonals) or fairly straight cut ovals ?

    2006 California Special Edition Mustang

    Dealers do this type of stuff down here in Florida all the time. I would find it difficult to believe that Ford would contemplate specialty "local area" models (although I do think Cali models are specific due to emissions) from an OEM production point of view. For example: you will witness...

    militarymustang: I believe if you re-read the initial post you'll find this quote: "Yeah, I know - - - if it bothers me that much then I should shave the fender and be done with it - - - but really can't Ford do better from the factory ? At least on the yet to be released upper $$$$...

    Dear Ford - - -

    I'm not asking for the world here - - - just a clean fender line. I'm wasn't looking for this thread to deteriorate into a "I'm more of a guy because I can live with less creature comforts and anyone whom doesn't have my point of view is a sissy" thread; nor did I aim for the "I'm a better...

    Dear Ford - - -

    So I walk back from the mail box all "happy, happy, joy, joy" with my new editions of Muscle Mustangs and Fast Fords and Mustang Enthusiast in my hands; sit back to enjoy a good read and by the end of the afternoon I am finally annoyed enough with Ford to actually submit a thread. I haven't...

    Are fewer people coming to the forums?

    I think that people are posting less because they are out driving their Mustangs more. Especially those northern vert owners whom are attempting to get in some nice Fall drives before they have to put their ponies inside for the Winter. I don't think that the "shine" has worn off the...

    Why can't I beat my buddie's Celica???

    I bet your friend stole Cleveland's aerodynamic "Pony" valvestem covers. And I think Dreamer is correct; you need more performance stickers - - its a proven fact that those are worth at least 5hp each. We know it couldn't be driver error - - -

    CHP Discrimination against mustangs!

    Hey, think of the up-side - - - at least your car isn't "Arrest Me Red" or "Screaming because I got another ticket Yellow" - - - you probably saved yourself a few tickets just because you have a less noticable color.

    So Excited--Got My Vanity Plate,BUT...

    Party Pony. Same type of thing happened on one of my plates a few years ago. My wife was really taken by the "New Day" stuff from Successories and had our plate read: NU DA. Needless to say that was open to the New Dad and Nude interpretations - its now collecting dust in the garage.

    What colors would you like to see Ford introduce on the S197 ?

    Torch Red, Colorado Red, Rio Red - - - all fairly similar to Standard Gloss Red. I'm surprised that no one has mentioned a Mystic, Champagne or Cinnamon. While I'm attempting to elicit responses - let's not forget the interiors - I'd like to see a White leather accent package similar to...

    What colors would you like to see Ford introduce on the S197 ?

    OK, so most of us have now seen the S197 in all of its '05 color palette offerings - - - some of us have even gone so far as to vote with our wallets. And I think that everyone has seen the threads on the new '06 colors (with Vista Blue, Colorado Red, Tungsten, etc). Everyone has that one...

    GTO,CHARGER quicker the the STANG

    johnnytuinals: Why would you believe that Ford's rollout of a new vehicle such as the S197 would imply that they would release their more potent engine/drivetrain combinations out of the gate ? Remember the last time when they brought out the SN95 ? They kept the push-rod 5.0; then put in...

    Post Pics of Your Mustang

    ninoavila: Very sweet ride. It almost makes me wish I had kept my '95 Cobra R rims. If you ever want to push out the rears flush with the body panels I would suggest Steeda extended race studs and a 5/16th inch spacer. The stripes are very dramatic and certainly showcase the...
