    Bought a 2011 GT yesterday...

    Took the plunge and bought a sterling gray metallic GT premium with black interior, 6 speed manual, 5 spoke 19's and 3.73 rear axle... I'm loving the color, was never a big fan of the black plastic on the bottom of the rear bumper but it looks quite nice with the sterling gray. And there is...

    2011 V6 and GT Performance Specs

    Ok...so is it just me or is anyone else just dying with anticipation to see what this car can do??? Seriously, at this same time last year every single car mag had tested the 2010 and all we get now are HP, TQ, and gas mileage figures, and we still have people blindly buying these cars. I'm...

    O/R H Pipe

    Just a question to see if the issue has been resolved. I had an 05 and it was wrecked and was out of the Mustang scene for a while until I picked up my 10 last summer. Anyway, I had on O/R H pipe on my 05 and had issues on cold start up with the engine feeling like it was going to sputter...

    Got my GT weighed today...

    She tipped the scales at 3,580 lbs with a full tank of gas. Options that probably added weight to a base GT would be comfort pacakage and 19" wheels A picture of the weight slip is attached. I'll be getting dyno numbers Friday evening, my buddy with the dyno has the shop closed today and...

    Break Question

    Hey guys, Ok so I'll give a brief description of what I'm hearing so we can figure out if it's normal or not. If I'm turning and working the clutch and gas with my foot (this usually happens in a drive thru window, so picture that) if I hit the break pedal, no matter how hard, I hear a loud...

    What gas is everyone using?

    Just wondering what everyone's filling their stang up with. I'd been using regular up until last night, I put my first full tank of premium in it. Not sure if it's a mental thing or not but it seems to drive a lot smoother, especially between shifts. Either way, it seems worth the extra few...

    paint issues

    Well I've had her 2 weeks yesterday and I have paint chipping off the car in 2 spots so far. It looks like it's been sandblasted, but it's only been to the car wash twice. And not the drive through car wash, the get out and do it yourself kind. There's one spot on the hood and 3 spots right...

    few mod ?s

    Not sure if there is one available as I cannot find one, but just wondering if any company is offering a short throw for the new model or if maybe one for the outgoing 09 will fit since its essentially the same drivetrain and the shifter appears to be in the same place my 05 was, although it's...

    Rust?

    Ok so I've had the car for a little over two years and I still love it with the exception that it's rusting in 3 spots. There is one spot on the roof where the paint is starting to bubble up and there is rust underneath, and it's rusting in two spots behind the GT emblem on the rear deck. I...

    Car won't start

    Ok, so I took my car on a 25 minute drive to go eat lunch, came home, car sat for about 45 minutes, I get in to go run errands, and it doesn't start. When I start her up I tend to push the clutch in at the same time I turn the key, and when I did this I heard a metal "clank" or hollow sound...

    Help needed

    Ok so about a month ago I got my car back from the shop after my accident. The axle on the driver's side was replaced due to it being bent. Since I got the car back I heard a rattling sound that sounded like it was coming from under the back passenger quarter panel. Upon further...

    Hit and run

    Ok, so last night I ran up to the grocery store to pick up a few supplies, left there to go drop off a package at the post office box. On my way this kid in a relatively new nissan 350z hardtop convertible comes racing out of a gas station parking lot and is trying to get me to race him. Being...

    Dyno Results In!

    Alright guys, took my car up to San Antonio to Murillo Motorsports for custom tune on the Mustang Dyno. I already had a custom tune from BamaChips so the improvement wasn't mind blowing but it does accelerate smoother and I picked up quite a bit in the midrange. Anyways, here are the results...

    Does this happen to anyone else?

    Alright, now when I first got the car I kind of expected it, as I got my GT about 2 months after they were available to the public. But it seems that almost on a daily basis someone wants to race me! And I'm not talking about camaros, trans ams or rice burners, more like an old camry the other...

    squeaky suspension

    I need some help with a realy persistent and very noticable and annoying squeak coming from my back left. Now I'm not quite sure which part it is, but I'm sure it's the lower control arm, though I have heard that the eibach pro kit was discontinued due to squeaky springs. Anyways, I no longer...
