    Switched my fender emblems...again

    :ban: If only I could be a mod for a day.

    my mustang update

    Forget the spelling... the fiberglass pieces are what scares me. Please tell me it gets better. You have some big cajones to experiment with your car like that.

    Build your own Shelby GT

    V. Barbarino started off with an okay point. There was an article in Car & Driver that said you could build your own Shelby for a lot less money. 1965coupe made a good counter arguement that C&D did not account for shipping costs to Shelby, and installation that keeps all waranty intact...

    Build your own Shelby GT

    Good response from a Shelby GT owner:nice: . The fact is that I really liked this car and was considering getting one until the price was released. Many of the car magazines underestimated the final price. I think things like shipping, painting, and even installation costs were overlooked...

    Well, Here she is, my new GT/CS

    Good call IMO to leave the hood slick. Your car is sick! Excellent choice going for the Vista CS with dove. I'm still debating between GT and CS and White, Vista or Alloy (leaning toward White GT).

    Build your own Shelby GT

    Well, unfortunately for me, I've had about 6 years to work on my plan. My original plan was to go for a special edition mustang. I was going to wait for the Bullitt, but if trends continue the way they have been going, I just plain can't afford one. By the time a dealer sells it, sticker...

    Build your own Shelby GT

    I read the article in Car and Driver and plan on building my own. No, not a Shelby. I'm planning on purchasing a Mustang GT (manual, spoiler delete and no scoop or stripes) with a budget of $3,000 to mod with. Right now, I am thinking about: Full Bassani SS Exhaust ~$1,200 Saleen...

    I believe the center caps are stock. Yours should have the same wheels.

    New here w/ a Brand new 07 GT Now what?

    :doh: The Search function is not that hard to find. I would look around and start focusing your vision so that you can ask specific questions about what you want to do to your (wife's) new stang. Congrats BTW. Got pics?

    Sold my Mach and ordered a....

    Congrats on the order! I've read some reviews that the suspension set up can be a bit harsh on regular roads. I don't want to bash this car at all, because on paper it is really attractive. But I can tell you first hand that owning a car with an over aggressive suspension (meant more for a...

    Cobra + NOS = blown motor

    Even if he hit it too soon, do you really want a button that will kill your car? Those guys are lucky no shrapnel came back to bite them.

    Post Pics of Your Mustang

    Maybe some red calipers too. Lots of nice rides here... Kooldawg, I love the look of your ride. Those are the choice wheels there. I love the fan blades.

    took some new pics w/white lettering tire paint

    The evened out white lettering looks better. :nice: Misbadging a car may upset some of the purists here, but how boring would it be if everyone drove around in stock vehicles? Some prefer to keep stock, others prefer to modify. Like I said before, I don't think he is trying to fool anyone...

    Shelby GT

    Yes it looks horrible with those cheap looking rivets. A little too retro for my taste. Regular GT, here I come.

    Shelby GT

    Car & Driver I've seen them as low as ~$39,000 on e-bay. Some greedy dealers were asking 60ish. On a side note, Car & Driver was not too kind reviewing this car and was particularly not crazy about the Hurst Shifter and the FRPP suspension set up. They did like the exhaust and said it...

    I hate to post this question, but...

    I'd bite at $3,500 off too. I got my wife on board, and got the green light to mod away. Time to get my game plan together. I already have some ideas.:D

    I hate to post this question, but...

    I'll just wait and see. 0% is not guaranteed, but it seems like it has been around post 9/11. GM, DMX and Ford have all been doing it somewhat consistently. If I can't do 0%, I'm expecting something better than the current incentive of $1000 off Manual GTs.

    Vista Blue or Performance White?

    I'm between these two also... My last two sports cars were blue, and Vista Blue is definitely sweet. I am thinking seriously about performance white with black stripes, and the shaker hood scoop.

    I hate to post this question, but...

    Cool! I am hoping to do the same thing with an '07. I am happy to see that nobody posted that last year was a unique circumstance. Hopefully, another big clearance of the old models equals a new Mustang for me.:flag:
