    Beating a soon to be dead horse. The 05 GT vs the current Mach 1 and their owners.

    Ha ha! Yep. Noticed that too! Bought my 2005 GT brand new in 2005 (pre-order June 2005) and still own it. Didn't notice any haters back then 12 years ago. :p

    Beaten To Death Topic....what Exhaust To Choose?

    I have the Ford Racing M-5230-GTA Axle Backs on my 05 GT. DIY installed them back in 2007 and still happy with them. They provide a deep throaty V8 tone, with a slightly louder overall volume, and there's ZERO drone inside. When I get on it, I can really hear the beast wake up. From what I hear...

    06 G35 Coupe Vs 06 Mustang Gt

    Statistically, your GT has the edge in acceleration (0-60, ¼) over your friend’s G35 stock for stock. With a CAI, muffler delete, and no tune, your friend’s G35 isn’t going to have a noticeable amount of HP power gain. At most, his G probably gained 10-15HP which isn’t going make much of an...

    Anyone Else Get This Recall Notice?

    Got the recall letter in March of 2015 for 2005 GT and finally had the driver side replaced last summer (June 2016) and then a few months later I got the recall letter for the passenger side. Who knows when that will ever come. Also have a 2010 BMW 335i which I got the recall letter in early...

    Wet Carpet

    Had that happen on my 2005 GT 2 summers ago after several days of Florida rain. Didn't replace the bladder, just made sure it's clear of leaves and dirt and it hasn't leaked. Didn't change the carpet padding and it smelt musty for a short time, but now the smell is gone. The only other thing I...

    Will Spare Tire Kit Work?? 2012 V6 Stang

    Does your trunk have that open space under the cargo area to fit a spare? If so, then you’re good to go. The spare from a 2005 – 2010 V6 and GT Stang is typically size T155/70R17, but for my 2005 GT I have a T185/60-17 size spare. I don't know why it's different, but maybe it was a holdover from...

    Leather upholstry peeling

    Dang this Florida weather. :( Yeah. I've done some searches on other similar forums and found some useful tips on how to fix it. I've never had any problems with my car until this happened. It's ironic because it happened exactly 5 years after the day I first took delivery of it.

    Leather upholstry peeling

    Well. The strangest thing happened when I got in my car. When I opened the driver side door, the leather upholstry peeled off the top of the door panel and the only thing holding it was the armest. WTF? :shrug: So, I had to get rubber retaining strips, the same stuff used for fastening...

    Throttle Body Question

    Ok. So you disagree. Fine. I'm not really into heavy mods as you and so I lean towards getting the most out of a tank full because of the ever increasing gas prices. So with all these mods, have you experienced any increase over stock as far as average MPG or mileage range per tank full?

    Throttle Body Question

    I have a Predator tuner and would like to get a CAI/w tune, but with the price of 93 octane hitting $4.00+ a gallon. It ain't worth it.

    Ford Racing Axleback

    I just got mine through Ninosport. Installed them over the holiday break and they sound great! They're a little louder than stock, but not too much and they give a deeper tone. I like the sound of them from the inside because, when I'm cruising, you can hear them and there's no drone at all...

    GT-300?

    Thanks for the complement. :nice: Yeah. I've seen other Stangers replace their GT emblems with other ones, such as 4.6 or S197, and they look cool. It must be really easy to take them off so I may do that sometime later on. Post some pics once you get yours done.

    GT-300?

    I got the GT 300 side stripes, because you don't see them very often as compared to racing stripes. My GT gets the looks and cool comments and, every now and then, people will come up and ask me "What is GT 300?". Just jike this thread. I just tell them it represents the 300HP (at the crank)...

    New stang?

    I really liked the style of 2005 mustang because it reminded me of my Grandpa's 1965 fastback. This is my first ever Mustang, although I have ridden and driven in older mustangs (1965, 1971, 1991 LX 5.0, 1994 Cobra, 1996 GT, 2003 GT), so I may sound a little biased, but I love it. I've had...
