    2015 Mustang Designated as the S550 Platform.

    That picture in not nearly as bad as some I have seen. I like lighter, better gas mileage. IRS should help cornering. The car has potential. AWD would be a nice option but they need to keep RWD as the basic set up, not some FWD POS

    Whens the reveal?

    I think Ford would be very smart to lighten up the whole car and to offer the smaller engines, especially the turbo as well as the big V8. That would appeal to 2 different markets in one hot platform. Compete with the turbo imports if the price stays reasonable and offer the V8 for the...

    Yea the St is 3 k less than the Base GT, a little more practical and more creature comforts, but man the mustang is a great car. Logic says ST all the way but deep down that GT is calling, practical or not

    Daily Driver

    Blue and no, ST1 for me. If I really want a nice stereo I can get aftermarket silly, pay less and have better sound. The money I would have spent on Recaro can get me a second set of wheels for snow tires should I get the ST

    Daily Driver

    I just drove the SE with sport package they have here. It should be very similar to the Titanium minus a few interior toys. It handled OK but that 6 speed automatic kinda pissed me off a little, it almost seemed like it was confused. Now add 6 thousand feed of elevation above sea level and I...

    Coyote in a 70 Fastback

    Anyone done it yet? My 70 is mid restoration, lots of chopping so all original is a waste anyways. It is the car in the Avitar, but a Coyote would get me over 400 real fast and make it a pretty good daily driver. Thoughts?

    05-06 shaker 500 head unit in 05 F150

    I did not have any amps in the truck just the standard stereo. As far as I can tell the amps you need the adapter for are the integrated subs/amps the shaker uses. The normal 4 stereo speakers are powered fro the head unit. I can tell that it is designed for subs from the sound though.

    My buddy has an 05 or 06 mustang shaker 500 6 disc in dash head unit he is willing to let me put in my 05 Fi50. They are the same size but are the hook ups the same and will it work? I have the standard stereo in the truck not the audophile.

    80 6 cyl

    Guy said 1500 but more than likely I figure 1200 or so for the car. I did not get to look at very long but what I did see no dents, rust of any kind and the paint looked pretty good The interior looked clean. It is an auto car, silver with red interior.
