    Arrogant Dealer

    I was just baffled. Okay so maybe you don't want to sell me a Shelby, fine I won't buy one from you, but to be rude, I'm never going to buy anything there. I very polite "you know, sir, I just don't foresee these coming down to sticker" would have sufficed. I do plan on showing up when I have...

    Front License Plate

    What dealership in NOVA are you purchasing it from? Just curious. My dealer in Tysons still has them marked up to 20K over, and I haven't had time to shop around and see if any others in the area are lower. I run around with no front tag on my 95 GT, and the only thing that has ever happend...

    Arrogant Dealer

    I stopped by a Ford Dealership on my way home today to pick up an ACT for my stang and there was a 07 shelby 500 vert in the showroom marked up to 68K. I was drooling over it( I intend to buy one when they get closer to sticker)when a salesperson walked up. He introduced himself as the sales...

    2008 shelbys

    Not sure, I would venture september though. I was just looking at completed auctions on ebay, and none are meeting reserve. It seems like no one is bidding more than 52K. They are coming down, just slowly.

    ACT + Warm weather (AGAIN)

    I just stumbled upon this thread and WOW! As soon as it warmed up my 95 GT 5 SPD started with spastic pinging fits and seemed significantly weaker. I ordered a new ACT from the dealer and it should be in today. If that doesn't do anything I'll try the resistor route. Good info guys, and it's...

    Some times from this past weekend.

    Get some sticky tires on there and you will be deep into the 11's. Outstanding times though, especially on slippery street tires.

    Who's paying over 60K?

    I love watching all these auctions on ebay not make reserve. It's the begining of the end of the ridiculus markups. Give it a few months.

    So.......

    As soon as they get to sticker I'll buy one. My local dealer has a GT500 vert on the showroom floor marked up to $69K! I talked to them about ordering one, and they said they would have to negatioate a fair market value markup when it arrived. I gave them my card and told them when they were...

    found again

    While cruising through craigslist this weekend I stumbled upon none other than my old 92 mustang that I sold a few years ago when I was in a pinch. I built this car from a rolling chassis, put in an 8 point cage, through the floor subframes, built rear, c-4, and 400n/a hp, and a lot of sweat...

    4.6 swap

    I assumed the 5.4 wouldn't wedge into it too well, but hadn't thought about it. I'm not looking for the cheap or easy way out. I'm looking for something unique and challenging(read: I want to cuss alot). When fordracing releases the shelby GT500 motor for sale, that may be a consideration.

    4.6 swap

    No intention of keeping it stock. I'm looking for 500hp, I just want to jump to the new modular engines. I've built many a 5.0, I want to do something new.

    Funny exhaust

    After I got home from work yesterday, I turned my car off and got out, and noticed exhaust still whisping from the left tailpipe. I quick sniff and it smelled like exhaust, not antifreeze or oil thankfully. It continued for almost a full minuite before it stopped. I took the car for a quick...

    AC LINE + HEADER = PROBLEMS

    I put the BBK long tubes on mine over chrismas, have been driving with the header right up against the A/C line for a few weeks now, no problems so far. I have to say they were a @&$%^@*(( to install. I've pulled engines out of cars faster.
