    Best cold air intake system

    Questions for HEAVYGT or any Granatelli users Are you still pleased with your Granatelli intake? Also, how well does the intake perform without a tune? (HeavyGT - I noticed that you have the intake and a custom chip/tune. Did you try the intake without a custom tune?) Lastly, how easy...

    Tribal

    Those flames have more of a tribal look to me and I think that whole "I'm so tribal - grrr" thing is going to be passe very soon. You might see if a paint shop in your area could direct you to a graphic designer who might be able to come up with a truly original scheme for you.

    new shelby

    I like the exterior appearance and the performance improvements. About the only thing I wish they offered was more color selections. At least you can get a 5-speed.

    My GT/CS finally arrives....

    Really nice-looking car. The interior and exterior really go together very well. :nice: Enjoy driving in the open air in that one!

    New Stang and my first Stang

    I ordered my GT on 8/16 and incredibly, the car arrived on 9/13. My wife and I were able to bring her home on 9/14. So far, I can't stop grinning and enjoying a car with about 2.5 times the horsepower of my last car. Here are the pics...

    what tuner and intake

    As a future GT owner, I'm also interested in CAI/tuner combos but I'm also curious to know if anyone's tried Granatelli's CAI package.

    Just got an 06 GT..

    Congrats on your GT. I'm still awaiting delivery of mine. In addition to the performance mods suggested previously, you might think about stripes and/or rear quarter window louvers. Many of the rear louvers, from what I read, stick on with 3M products and you can often find them...

    Hmm auto or stick?

    I just went through this decision and last week, I ordered my GT with a stick. If you take back-to-back test drives in an auto and then try a stick, you'll likely enjoy the experience of driving the stick so much more. It sounds rather hokey, but you feel more connected to the car and the...

    Crappy Stock Paint! Help?

    How well does touch-up painting work with these finishes? I'm particularly curious about the metallics, especially Tungsten Grey.

    Finally, my Mustang is on order

    Good choice of options, Cavallo. I debated the heated seats and the floor mats and for a few days, I even considered the spoiler delete but opted to keep it.

    Finally, my Mustang is on order

    I'd say you have good taste in cars, color and options. :D

    Finally, my Mustang is on order

    On Friday, my wife and I put in an X-plan order for my GT! I'm really excited because: 1) it's my first-ever new car and 2) it's my first Mustang. Here's the nitty-gritty on the details: GT coupe Premium package - T82 GT Appearance Package - 54G Tungsten Grey - T8 Dark Charcoal...

    Well, now I've gone and done it...

    Congrats on the order! :nice: Let's hope the wait isn't too excrutiating and that there are no dealer games for you.

    Post count question

    I joined a few months ago and have made the occasional post where I can. However, my post count always says "1". Is that a glitch in the software or is there some other reason? I know I've posted more than once. :D

    Shelby GT-H to be released as a retail model

    My father found this news article and sent it to me this morning. Apparently the GT-H is going to be released as a 2007 model for retail purchase. The article claims the news was given to Ford dealers at a meeting in Las Vegas. I wonder if retail GT-H will come in other color schemes and if...

    X-Plan question

    I'm getting ready to order a GT under the X-Plan in about 2 weeks. I'm trying to find out what charges the dealer can and can't pass on to me under the plan. I know there's a "Ford Partners" website but we can't access it - it apparently requires a password. We do have the PIN number though...

    New Color Suggestions

    A shade of tan might be interesting and very different from the greys, blues, reds, white and black currently available. Maybe even gold would an interesting option.

    Sell my 05 for a 06

    Um, back on topic, I'm all for the GT, personally. I'm not a fan of verts - they're fun to ride in once in a great while but just not my cup o' tea. I'd rather listen to music while cruising than wind noise. I get plenty of wind noise at work.

    Camaro or even a Firebird?

    I just don't care for the new look of the Camaro. I think it's too blocky and it just looks bloated to me. Granted the new Stang is a fairly heavy car, but it doesn't look fat to me like the new Camaro does. I do like the way Challenger looks. Oh well, I'm planning to order a GT next...

    What about that Boss article?

    The Boss would be a great addition to the line. And I'm certain that the excitement and frenzy generated by a limited-edition Mustang will cause dealers to mark up the cars initially because there will be enough people willing to pay that premium to be one of the first to own one. It's really...
