    Colors & Pictures

    Thanks for your replys. Some replys of mine: - Redfire is the dark red - almost burgandy. - Tungsten replaced mineral grey. Several of you confirmed my problem of the purple hue in Tungsten. I'm concerned about the Redfire with red leather and would appreciate any comments, and really...

    Colors & Pictures

    My wife and I are getting ready to order our new 06 GT convertible, but disagree on the color. She wants Redfire, I want Tungsten. When we saw a Tungsten in person - it appeared to have a purple hue to it which neither of us liked. Have other 06 Tungsten owners ever noticed this?? I haven't...

    Ford Website - Mistakes?

    I was on the Ford Website - Build & Price your Ford. When you select a Mustang GT Convertible, the specs say it has 260 horses. Is this a misprint or did they decide to drop 40 hp off the convertible? :damnit: It also appears they mixed up the color pallets for Redfire and Torch Red...

    Finally Test Drove GT w/stick - WOW

    I do like red, but so do the cops, so I tend to steer clear of the "ticket me" colors. I definately want it to look sharp, but not scream "Hey, Look at me!" I was also concerned that red leather IUP might not look good with Redfire ext., but I see by the post that several have that combo...

    Finally Test Drove GT w/stick - WOW

    Today I finally got to test drive an 05 GT w/5sp and all I can say is WOW, I'm impressed. I just sold my 95 gt vert w/5 sp and I've talked my wife into trading her PT Cruiser for an 06 GT this spring. I know we'll have to order one to get just what we want - GT with red/charcoal interior -...

    police intercepters

    I'm probably in the dark here, but how does the Charger Hemi stack up against the 05 'stang? :shrug:

    03/04 Cobras

    TOB = throw out bearing! I should have known. If I had a buck for every TOB I've replaced I could buy a set of cheap tires for a Yugo, and maybe get a Happy Meal, too. Thanks for curing my ignorance and I'll be listening for noisy TOB's on any 03/04 Cobras I check out. :nice:

    03/04 Cobras

    Please excuse my ignorance, but what is TOB and what are the issues? :shrug: I'll probably feel really dumb when I find out. :bang: Thanks

    03/04 Cobras

    Thanks Jim, :hail2: I've been looking around and have seen quite a few 03's for sale on Auto Trader - enough to make me wonder about problems. Could just be people tired of paying for premium gas or high insurance rates. :bang: I'll watch for other replies, maybe from someone who...

    03/04 Cobras

    Sorry about my last post and being off by 10 years :bang: I'm really interested in the 03/04 Cobras and wondering about any problems with those. I think I read a post about trans problems with the 6 sp, but I could be wrong about that. :shrug: Please let me know if you know of any...

    93/94 Cobras

    OPPS! Sorry guys, I screwed up big time. :bang: I must have been focused on my 95 GT and missed my decade screw up. :shrug: I'm interested in 03/04 Cobras. :nice: I'll do a new post. Sorry about that. :rolleyes:

    93/94 Cobras

    The fastest you have had your car

    When I had a vortech s-trim I took mine up to 130 with the top down. Vacuum created in my car at that speed sucked a cup right out of the cup holder. :D When I had the incon twin turbos I took it up to 150 when I chickened out (or got smart) with the top up. Since then, I've decided it's...

    Question for the pros

    Well now. This is getting pretty far down the list and probably no one is going to read it, but here's my .02 worth. :rolleyes: I'm an old fart - 51 years old. Our 2 daughters both had accidents in their first year of driving and in each case the car was totalled. One daughter was at...

    Need selling advice

    It has just over 70k miles on it and as stated, it's my baby. Never seen a winter in 8 years, no accidents, heck I don't even drive it that hard that often. Only been to the drag strip once. Never had it over 150 mph - did that once, and one time to 130 (with the top down) - vacuum sucked a...

    Need selling advice

    Come on now. Just drop me a quick note. Do you think someone would pay more for my car with the mods (would you?), or do you think it's I'll get about the same $$$ with or without the mods - in which case I might as well take off what is reasonable to do so and then sell those parts...

    Need selling advice

    I was in a car accident (not my Mustang) in mid March which totalled out my minivan and my right ankle. I hope to drive soon, but with a cast on my right foot, I can only use my left foot. My 95 GT vert is a stick, so I don't think I'll be driving it any time soon. My wife and I have been...

    BS or what?

    Thanks for all of your advice. :nice: I haven't decided if I want Mineral Grey or Black - GT Premium, stock wheels, red leather IUP - and that's about it. I may want the convertible once I see it at the Detroit show. Before I buy one I would want to have sold my 95 GT Convertible and a...

    BS or what?

    Here's what the salesperson at the local dealer told me after I got them to agree to see me a 'stang GT on x-plan. Is this BS to get me to order right away or is this the straight scoop? "As soon as you decide at the Auto Show what you want - if I were you I would order at that time and not...

    2005 mustang gt convertable pics

    I still think Ford should offer another option for the Mustang other than just coupe or vert - how about moon-roof, t-tops, targa? :shrug: I'll have to see the 05 vert in person to decide if I like it or not. I like my 95 vert, but usually only drive it when I can have the top down - hense...
