    2005 mustang gt convertable pics

    Wow- amazing how much the canopy can add to the overall appearance of the car. Must admit, I LOVE the coupe, but the vert is just ho hum, top up or down. :notnice:

    O5 GT wheel hop?

    Oh yeah, it is a bit tricky to get the wheels spinning even with the TCS off, because of that electronic throttle :notnice: , but it can be done :nice: and once she's goin, boy howdy it will melt the tires clean off :D

    19 or 20's for my 05

    How about something like a 255/35/19 up front and a 275/30/20 out back? I think this would look freakin killer. Could someone with any photoshop experiance do that?

    O5 GT wheel hop?

    Haven't been to the track yet, but on the street I have not had a hint of wheel hop in my auto. That includes starting with a powerbrake, then continuing the smokeshow for the next 30ft. :D And yes, they do hook like no other factory stang I have ever driven. :hail2: Also, the smokeshow...

    Got My Screamin Yellow 05', WOOO HOOOO!!

    Thanks for the comps! I was originally going to wait until after I got back, but the wifes car(subaru) is on the downhill side of its life, so we were in the market for a car anyhow. And we wanted something with a warranty for while I am gone, In case the Truck takes a grumpy. So even though I...

    Got My Screamin Yellow 05', WOOO HOOOO!!

    Thanks for clarifying that. I thought it was a Steeda something, just couldn't quite decipher that whole SYQ thing. I bet it performs freakin awesome. Can't wait till I can afford some upgrades. :D Not sure I like that chin spoiler though, just looks "tacked on". I would like to do Some black...

    OOOOOOOkay

    Story time, HMMM..... Hows this. 1 day after I buy my car, I am driving a friend around from work doing about 40 down a straight road and some little accord pulls his nose out in my lane,right in front of me, then stopped :eek: with no more time to react then to quickly yank the wheel hard left...

    Public reaction?

    I have had my screamin yellow for about 2 days now, and I would say public reaction is akin to "Bill Gates Driving a Lamborghini." The really cool thing is that the Mustang is no Longer viewed as a cheap performance car for those who can't afford BMW's, but is actually respected and admired by...

    Are these Wheels too ricey??

    I was thinking about doing hyperblack. That yellow car is already bright enough, I need something to offset it a bit. And If I decide to do black boss markings or racing stripes,the hypeblack would really set it off. What is the widest tire anyone has seen on these cars?

    Are these Wheels too ricey??

    I have got to learn how to do photoshop :rolleyes: . Thanks. Schwabs said those would look good on there, but I wasn't sure. However after seeing them on the photochop, They really don't look that bad, at least not rice. With some Good brembo (or cobra when they arrive) brakes, I whink it would...

    Got My Screamin Yellow 05', WOOO HOOOO!!

    Yeah I know I got it in the behind for paying MSRP for a car with nearly 200 miles, :( , But beings I get to eat sand in 2 months, I did not have the luxery of taking my time and looking around, at least if I wanted to drive it at all. The local dealers wanted anywhere from 2500 to 6000 above...

    Just went out looking tonight, and after going to 3 dealers that were unwilling to budge from second sticker, found one that would give me MSRP. :nice: So now in my driveway sits a car I have drooled over since its intial concept debut. :D , Didn't get a great deal, but sure got a great car...

    Can you put together a better stereo for $600 or less?

    I know you are asking about a shaker 500, but I have test driven a car with the Shaker 1000, and IMO, it was good for stock, just wasn't to my high standards. I tried out Hotel California, and just wasn't what I though it should be for a thousand watt, $1,200 stereo. The Bass was almost...

    Import Guy Considers Defection!

    Very well said. :nice: As already mentioned, the 05 does not do any one thing best(except maybe style), but does ALL things (go, stop, turn, comfort, NVH, etc) better than anything else in the price range. I mean shoot, Edmunds test drove the 05 Stang and the 05 Vette back to back and said...

    First police chase of a new Stang.

    Oh I agree 110%, what he did was absolutely moronic, :nonono: and he should be prosecuted accordingly. But moronic as it was, that was a bit of of drivin' he did
