    Stock Style 18x10s for the Rear!

    looks good man. A bit too much black for my own personal tastes but looks good though. I'd have to have a polished lip or something to offset the black on black.

    Thus begins the longest 6~8 weeks of my life...

    I called and updated my order to include the rear view camera. I was under the assumption that you had to have the upgraded shaker 1000 system and the big screen nav unit to use the rear camera and then a guy on another forum said it shows up in the rear view mirror! Too cool! Oh and...

    HDR Images: Learn and share your work...

    If you're using photoshop then why not just use PS's built in HDR merge feature?? How to Create HDR Photos in Photoshop CS5 | Flash, Design, Vector, Photoshop, Adobe Tutorials | GraphicMania.net Works more or less the same way in CS2, 3 and 4 but 5 seems to come the closest to the...

    HDR Images: Learn and share your work...

    that's just basic level correction. Real HDR work still requires going into photoshop and manually tweaking the various images using the layer masking but also your work is centered around the tonemapped HDR result of the 3~5 images you shot with that something like photomatix spits out.

    SVT Package up $500 for 2012. But why?

    This. the price has gone up a little every year. Why should this year be any different. Besides, the car review blogs and magazine articles are littered with 5.0 and shelby praise. Ford can price them wherevery they want and they know people will still buy them simply because there are few...

    Honest difference between the 3.55's and 3.73's?

    Honest difference between the 3.55's and 3.73's?

    well looks like that deal fell through. I called the guy back and apparently the car has black interior rather than saddle and that IS a deal breaker for me so I'll be buying new I guess.

    Honest difference between the 3.55's and 3.73's?

    OK in my quest for a new GT, none of the dealers have been able to locate a GT with the exact options I want. 3.73's were part of that. so right now, every dealer I'm talking to would have to order one. A minute ago, one of them called saying he found one exactly how I want only with 3.55's...

    2012 mustang 5.0

    hahah the wife wouldn't let me get the base model. she said leather seats and the comfort package for heated seats were both mandatory. Not gonna argue with that! I'm wanting the saddle interior color. It just looks too cool and after visiting 5 dealerships, I've yet to see it inside one of...

    2012 mustang 5.0

    Got a couple of dealers bowing out of the bidding war I've got going on here. One of them is quoting me 2 grand under edmunds' "true market value" price of the car as configured. looks like I may have an order placed by the end of the week. I went and drove one today with the 3.73's and...

    2011 GT Shifting Issue

    I test drove a 2011 GT today with about 800 miles on it, brembos, 3.73's etc and I must say I'm incredibly impressed with the car. However, the reason I'm posting in this particular thread though was because 3rd gear proved to be a bit elusive on numerous shifts. the car was plenty warm and...

    Very clean! Was the spoiler a direct bolt on swap with the factory spoiler?

    Questions about the 2011/12 Spoiler

    ok so I'm talking to a couple of dealerships about getting a new 5.0 and with any luck, will have ordered one by this weekend. (going to test drive one tomorrow but no one has one built how I want mine to be configured) But one of my options I think I want is the deck lid spoiler. I like it...

    2012 mustang 5.0

    Are the dealers coming off MSRP very much? The wife gave me the go ahead today to start calling our dealerships to see what type of price I can get on one and what sort of build time they've got.

    Black 5.0 rolling shots with RTR's...

    These are the wheels that will go on my GT when I get it. Easily the best stang wheels that have come along in a long time. Black cars though... those are no longer on my list of "wants". My current car is the last black car I'll ever own. Awesome when it's clean but horrendous when it's...

    New owner of a 2010 GT

    maybe consider the blower from FRPP that gives you a 1 year warranty :shrug: I'm talking to dealers now about getting my 5.0 and my plan is to just throw on all the frpp suspension bits in, get an evo tune/intake and be done with it until the warranty is up then who knows...

    2010 Mustang Magnaflow Exhaust

    It seems like the magnaflows have never really been the best at making the 4.6's exhaust "pinging" tone that it has very prominent. I've had a magnaflow setup on my older 97 GT and on 2 other non mustangs since then and on all 3 cars, they seem to be more about emphasizing a nice smooth deep...
