    wow, oh9 you say you've owned 13 diff mustangs - seems an unbelievable amount of cars for someone of your age.

    Cell Phones

    I agree with ct07gt - the police do not enforce the cell law and are on cells themselves all the time but then they also often speeding insanely fast, passing on the right and weaving in and out of traffic carelessly because the laws dont apply to law enforcement in CT. And what about those...

    regular or premium???

    One good thing about the forums is getting other's insights and benefitting from it. I do admit my manual is for a 2007 GT and of course chuckycc17 did not specify his specifics so maybe it isnt relevant to his situation. So that being said: chuckycc17 - you need to specify your...

    Are we cylinder snobs?

    V8s - its the power baby! oh9 seems to want to tell me about my own cars - pure arrogance, assumptions and ignorance. You need to experience some variety in your life dude. BTW: I read the article and thought it was quite amusing. I dont think its intent was to inspire rants about how...

    Are we cylinder snobs?

    Seems my first post didnt take for some reason so I can see why oh9mustang was so easily confused. I never said I felt put down because I had a V6 but that I would not put someone down who did, especially if it were a convertible. I have a 2007 Mustang GT with its little 283 that aint much...

    Toxic Defiance Wheels

    chrome ones look nice. Black and chrome (or satin?) look even better - especially on a white car.

    Boss stripes on 05 - 09

    Thanks for the input guys. So far on exterior mods I have got agent47 side mirrors, clear turn signals, chrome trim for fogs and tail lights. My GT also has the spoiler delete. I really like the clean look of it. But I am a soul of contradictions and extremes I guess cause I also...

    Are we cylinder snobs?

    My only point was that I like what I like for me but dont put anyone down for not getting the same and unless you are at the very top there is always someone else got something better it seems.

    Boss stripes on 05 - 09

    stripe pics thanks but those arent what I had in mind. I did find a couple pics like what I was wanting but I was hoping someone would post pics of blue stang with white stripes. Everyone who sees my stang says its nice but they like the ones with the stripes. I like 427R stripes but...

    Please Post Your Gas Mileage

    2007 GT manual - - 100% stock - - leadfoot driver 14 mpg city - - - 20 mpg hwy In defense of my car's poor mpg I can only say: I did not buy a GT for good gas mileage but to have fun and total fuel consumption equals mpg x miles driven and not just mpg. My GT has less than...

    Boss stripes on 05 - 09

    Was hoping anyone with boss stripe kit could post pics and say where they got it from. I was considering getting white or silver boss stripes for blue 07 stang but was hoping to see some on blue stangs first. The particular stripes I have in mind consist of the super wide single hood...

    regular or premium???

    Should I use high octane gas in my GT? Its really quite simple: According to the owners manual - You should not use high octane gas because it can cause damage to your engine. Maybe people should try reading their owner's manuals. If you do an aftermarket tune on it then you will need...

    Water Intrusion

    There is a TSB with directions on how to diagnose and fix leaks including the cowl channel leaking, possible poorly fitting grommets on firewall, leak around windshield weatherstripping, side windows not sealing properly and AC system condensation leaks. Seems most likely culprit is the cowl...

    Brand new 09 Mustang smoking

    And my 2 cents worth: the amount of oil consumtion you state is extreme even for an old high mileage engine. Sounds like leaking valve seals or cracked rings to me. I have a 1990 ford Bronco with 302 that leaks oil out both main seals, valve covers, has some blow by and of course burns some...

    Agent 47 Retro Race Mirrors Write-Up

    You know, I'm not really a big fan of the bright red but DarkFireGT I really dig your ride (and the mirrors are excellent). I think if you replaced the front marker lights with clear or smoked ones it would complete the look 100%. I notice everyone seems to have the shorty antennas. Is...

    Agent 47 Retro Race Mirrors Write-Up

    I just ordered the Agent 47s for my '007 GT from southernmustangparts for $219 + free shipping which is the lowest total price I have found anywhere online. Thanks Ken. I have seen these mirrors where the pod (or whatever its called) is painted body color and the triangle and stem are left...

    65 Mirrors on my 08 GT

    The chrome looks really nice and at a great price - about the price of plastic covers for the OEM truck mirrors. Its nice to see people get creative rather than just plunk down some cash. I would think that visibility must surely be greatly reduced though. My first car was a 1967 Stang and...

    Agent 47 Retro Race Mirrors Write-Up

    Yeah, the tape would look stupid but I would just try it for a day or so to get a general feel. I have a narrow garage door and a long, curved, narrow driveway to back down with stone walls and pillars to avoid. A few of my friends vehicles have been victim to it over the years and the...

    Agent 47 Retro Race Mirrors Write-Up

    Real nice how-to on the Agent 47's. Love the look of the mirrors too! When I asked them for install instructions, Agent 47 sent me links to 2 other how-to's that people had done and did not include yours but yours is more detailed and IMO better. I do see why they did not mention yours...

    s197 ****... duw

    I have to say it looks great - love the whole package. Do the CDC louvers stick only to the glass or do they stick to the body paint like some other ones do? I want to add louvers to my ride but hesitate because I don't want to ruin the paint in case I later decide to remove them. Do you have...
