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

    Wish I could help more on this one. I purchased the nitto 555 drag radials, 305/40/18 and another set of stock rims for the strip. And I still have traction issues. However, I think it might be more with the track conditions, tire pressure, and suspensions. I do regret not getting the...

    2010 GT500 REAR SHOTS

    I knew a few of you were buggin for this. Apparently they didn't attached with the normal release. Rumor has it, the rear is still "unfinished". :notnice: This is the only part of the car I don't like.

    how many of you are excited?

    Lots of hostility in this thread. Think I'll hit a few points for my own amusement. The interior. Okay. It is much better in quality ever since the s-197. If you have owned any other mustang previously and have had the opportunity to own or drive the s-197 you will notice this. Notice...

    Motortrend just tested the NA 2010 Mustang and got a 13.7

    Motortrend has always produced terrible 1/4 mile times and performance reviews for everything but GM products. LOL.

    Bought a used GT500 & Need Advice

    Sounds like he already lied to you once about it and now your having issues with the car. Sorry to hear man. I hate to see this happen. :notnice: Best of luck on getting the repairs handled. How much did you pay for the car, if you don't mind me asking? As I'm continually searching...

    how well will it age

    lol. maybe a New Edge s197 lol. Other points brought up in this thread. I don't like. But most of the rear of the car is a disaster to me anyway. That's a good question. As it looks very "unfinished" to me as well. I actually love every bit of the interior. This is what...

    SuperCharger Pic from Auto Show

    I like the idea..but to me it's going to be about price. How much is the supercharger going to cost? Because at the sametime, this car is already on the market and only fetching low 30's. I'm speaking of the Saleen based Racecraft mustangs.

    Congress to Ford: drop the 2010 Mustang, get cash

    What an idiot. Why would ford stop making their most popular vehicle? There is a business side to all this as well. It's not just about economics and fuel consumption, as ford has other models that fit that mold. :flag: I responded on their website. Post number 12.

    2k10 axle ratio options

    3:73 gears is the best middle ground option out there. You will have enough umpf for street play and track play. Yet it won't kill your mpg on the free way or driving around. However, I'm very happy with my 4:10's. Just going 75-80 the rpms are too high. :(

    Let's rate the new Mustang

    Same as everyone else. Rear looks bad, not enough power. Same price, Chrysler and Chevy got ya beat all day long. :( I was looking at the 2009 RT Challenger, dealer has one by me, 31,800 for a 370 hp 6 speed version. It's looking much better now, IMO. Which is sad to say. :(

    1/4 mile predictions for 2010

    Good driver, on stock tires should be in the low 13's. As mid 13's were pretty feasible now. New Camaro, 422 hp 6 speed, I don't know the gearing, but on stock tires should be good for high 12's low low 13's. Pending on conditions and drivers. Sticky tires on the 2010 mustang should be...

    2010 SOLD

    Over all, I like the new look. Solid 8 out of 10 for me. Going to wait for next years motor, then I'm sold. I love the interior and all the new electronics. Actually looks and has accessories that puts it a head of it's class. The rear still is ugly to me, and I think or I hope, that...

    Camaro SS or Stang GT or Challenger Rt

    The government is not paying for the merger, however, they already approved the bail out I linked earlier in the thread. You sure are dead set that none of these companies will exist in a year. :flag:
