    Waiting On Your 2006 Order?

    I ordered my Torch Red GT on the same day as you from North Central Ford in Richardson, Tx. It's scheduled to be built the week of August 22. :banana:

    Saleen '20 wheels

    I think the offset of your front wheels is what threw me off. They are under the car a little more than the rears, and the rears are wider as you mentioned. Did you notice any deterioration in the ride quality? I think the new car handles lowering much better without spoiling the ride. I...

    Saleen '20 wheels

    delurker, That looks very nice! What springs are you running? It looks like you may have only lowered the rear? I'm considering the same if that's the case. Awesome looking car! :nice:

    Mustang Stories

    I ordered an '06 Mustang GT coupe to replace my '98 Cobra coupe. I really like the new design, but the real beauty is underneath the skin. The longer wheelbase, minimal front overhang (ala 3-series), new suspension, more rigid chassis, and the redesigned all aluminum 4.6 3V engine, all wrapped...

    New wheels & springs on 05 convertible (pics)

    It looks very nice. It is just a little too low for my taste, but it looks very good. I think it would look a little better if your wheels stuck out just a little more. Chrome wheels and metallic paint seems to go together quite well. Nice car! I went with the H&R OE Sport Springs for my...

    test Drive

    My first car was an '84 Mustang GT and I lived to tell about it. I was 16 at the time, and payed $9,800 for the car. I remember my two uncles went with my father and me to look at it. My dad isn't much of a car guy, so my two uncles pointed out the fact that the highway patrol used the...

    Waiting On Your 2006 Order?

    I think 18G replaces (and includes) 18R. You may want to double check that with the dealer to make sure you're getting exactly what you want.

    Something Broke, Lets Play Name That Part!

    I'm fairly certain that Steeda sells heavy duty versions of the part you broke in case you want to circumvent the whole dealer thing. Maybe they have already experienced the same parts failure? I would guess that your dealer would try to blame it on the springs, but the burden of proof is on...

    Congrats! Mine is on order from North Central Ford as well. They have been great so far.

    hooker long tube headers

    I'm eyeing the Kooks/JDM longtubes. They're impressive as far as craftmanship, materials and design goes. Somebody buy a set and post a review. :D

    06 gt or 03-04 cobra??

    I would go for the car that isn't derived from '78 Fairmont underpinnings. I don't own an '03/'04 Cobra, but I am replacing my '98 Cobra with an '06 GT. I'm excited about the new chassis and suspension, longer wheelbase and much improved F/R balance. The looks of the thing is just the icing...

    Got my DORA toda, NOW what do I do??

    Maybe they have a surplus of painted GT-spec bodies with spoilers that they need to clear out first? :shrug: I'm not sure how it all works though. It seems to me that the last part of the VIN includes the build sequence number, so they have to be built pretty soon I would think.

    Got my DORA toda, NOW what do I do??

    I'll find out early next week hopefully. I just received the VIN yesterday. I'll post the info when it becomes available. So there are 13D people with their VINs, but none have scheduled build weeks?

    Negative on the spoiler delete thing. I have my VIN for my spoiler delete GT Coupe.
