    I have a 2010 Shelby GT 500 and encountered the same Problem what I found was the oil life monitor takes the date into consideration. I put my car away with 60% life left on the oil. When I got it out in the spring it had zero life left. So I had the oil changed at the dealer. Put the car...

    GT500...need traction....what size rim and tire

    Thanks for the offer but mine is 2010 and even if they would fit I'm still not sure what direction I want to go with this car. I sure wish there was a tire out there that you could run everyday and get good traction. Drag radials or slicks for the track are fine but it still dosen't help on a...

    2010 or 2011?

    When you get your 2011 you'll be glad they didn't deal on the 2010's I predict. That new one is going to get fantastic press when it starts being reviewed.

    3.73s

    I think the main reason people recommend going down 2 ratios is that going down just 1 is not very noticable. It costs a little bit of money to do the gear swap and its nice to really feel you've made a modification. And doing a gear swap is one of the very best ways to really make a...

    Just drove a 2010 GT... WANT!!

    I have to vote 2 thumbs down on the new rear end. I want to love the car but that is one ugly back side. I bet Ford dosen't stay with that ass end for long. It was a big step backwards.

    Finally, 1st Ride in Car after installing the O/R H-Pipe

    This trumpeting subject has been covered quite a bit over the last couple years. I had the same problem with my 05. I eventually took the pypes O/R pipes off and went back to the stock H-pipe. It got really old after a while. I kept trying to convince myself I liked the sound, but that raspy...

    I've had both I had a Hurst on my 05 for around a year. I recently replaced it with an MGW. I was dissapointed. After reading how great the MGW's were I was expecting something more. There is NOT much difference between the two. Yes the MGW is a little smoother. But just a little. I...

    Clunking after lowering...?

    I agree. My was doing it this year after I got it out of storage and it took me quite a while to find it. But thats what it was. I'd have sworn it was coming from somewhere else but it was the passenger side end link. And it wasn't that loose.

    Can anyone here tell me if 2008 will be the last year for the current shelby gt 500. I have an 05 gt convertible and was planning on trading for a shelby next week.
