    Got my Shelby yesterday...loved everything except..

    That is a very nice car! But it looks like so long as there are 8,000 other people like you who will pay any price to have the car, I won't be getting one for MSRP.

    Chrylser has made my decision simple

    Chrysler has made my decision simple If I can't get a Shelby GT500 by 2008 for MSRP from a Ford dealership who has more than greed on their mind then the 2008 Dodge Challenger will be mine. This is a very easy decision for me. I encourage everyone else to consider it as well. My loyalty to...

    SHELBY PRICE LIST IS HERE!

    Had he invested that same money in one of many stocks or even a stock index fund back then he'd have A LOT more money then what he'll get for those cars. I believe Microsoft went public around the same time the Delorian was introduced. You can buy as much or as little as you want and...

    Shoddy replacement "OEM" GT Rear Bumper

    At least you got your car back eng21! Mine suffered almost $25,000 in damages from someone rearending me at 40mph while I was stopped at a traffic light. I only had my Mineral Grey Mustang GT for 4 1/2 months at the time. Good thing I talked them into calling it a total loss and not fixing it...

    Need parts?

    My brand new 2005 Mustang GT was totalled by a high speed rear end collision while I was stopped at a light. The entire engine compartment was unscathed. The car starts right up with no problems. Rear axle was pushed 6 inches forward though.

    Touching up Charcoal Leather

    Anyone out there know what will work on scuff marks on the dark charcoal leather? I've tried black shoe polish to no avail. I've got a few scuff marks on the side of the driver seat. I'm not sure if I caused them or if they were there when I got the car new. My watchband may have caught the...

    Help, I cant stop driving my 05!!

    No way! I disagree. The only time the novelty wore off driving my 1995 GT was when I got my 2005 two months ago. I loved driving that '95 every day I drove it. I looked forward to driving it whenever I had the chance. Of course what may have kept the novelty going was the intake, exhaust...

    Hydracarbon Trap Removal

    Any ideas why Ford has set the thresholds so tight on the computer for the 05? Why is the computer unable to learn new things such as better flowing air by simply removing the trap? Would replacing the stock paper filter with a better flowing K&N also cause a problem? How would putting super...

    Hydracarbon Trap Removal

    This may be a stupid question but has anyone tried reseting the computer after removing the HC trap to see if the lean A/F readings are still the same? I myself have put the HC trap back in after hearing about how lean the engine runs without a tune. I have yet to reset my computer by...

    How many miles do you have on your 05?

    Make sure you stash more of your winnings away for the car insurance increase you'll also be seeing especially if you pick up another one of those tickets. Had mine 7 weeks now, just got the plates this past week, 1,190 miles so far and running AWESOME!!! Absolutely no complaints whatsoever...

    Tremec 3650 Fluid

    Just wondering what fluid Ford uses in the Tremec 3650 manual tranny on the '05 and if you would benefit at all from dumping it and putting in GM Synchromesh, which is the preferred fluid for Tremec transmissions. I put Synchromesh in my '95 with the T-5 tranny and noticed smoother shifts right...

    I think he said that price included tax/license/fees so not a bad deal at all if that is the case.

    MINERAL GREY QUESTION???????

    Just to confirm this mineral gray color is the same color used on the 2001 - 2003 mustangs. The color code is TK and they typically already have that paint code instock at most Ford Dealers for the touch-up paint bottles. This is not so for the new colors available on the 2005 Mustang.
