    Trade-In and Order

    I worked out my trade-in price up front, along with the sale price of the '05. The paperwork was filled out as if the sale was complete, but I keep my current vehicle until the '05 arrives. My dealer just told me to keep it under xxxxx miles, which isn't going to be a problem. When my GT...

    RWHP v. HP

    Yes, it's all math and so is true with any engine. I stand corrected on the 5250 ... shows what I get for trying to recall from memory. :)

    April 25th build week people in here!!!!!

    Sorry I've been absent, guys. It's been a busy/rough last few days, including my backyard flooding ... again! As far as I know, I'm still good for this week. I don't have the specific build day. Since I joined after the robot lady became a household name, what info do I need besides my VIN...

    RWHP v. HP

    Remember, you asked :D ... Max engine HP or torque refers to a "peak" number at a certain engine speed. It all depends on the torque curve of the engine. Torque is not linear across the RPM range of the engine. It generally peaks at a low RPM and falls off as engine speed increases...

    What Color?

    Personally, I would opt for the Sonic Blue over black. That blue is a nice color. But, I'm not much of a black car person.

    Gotta Have Stripes!

    Those of you who have stripes and the rear spoiler, did you get the stripe kit (or paint) that go over the top of the spoiler? How does that look? I love the stripes that go all the way to the rear bumper, but can't decide how I feel about them going over the rear spoiler. Does anyone have...

    Got my deliv date, have a question.

    Title and registration fees really vary by state, too. In some states you pay a fixed cost for registration. In Indiana, however, you pay an amount based on the age/value of the vehicle, and you pay this annually (excise tax). It costs several hundred dollars every year in taxes to drive a...

    No more 05's to be scheduled

    From what I've read in this forum, I really think it has a lot to do with the dealership you go through. I place my order about the same time as you, and my build date is 4/25. In fact, I already had my build date 2 weeks after I placed the order.

    17" RWL?

    This may draw some of these reactions ... :barf: , but I'm going to ask anyway. :D Has anyone seen a raised white letter street tire offered for wheels greater than 16"? You can find racing tires like this, of course, but I haven't seen a street tire with them. I've always liked the classic...

    05 GT: Bassani VS. Flowmaster - thoughts?

    I've heard that. Is that really the case? Is that for any warranty service?

    05 GT: Bassani VS. Flowmaster - thoughts?

    You're right. I don't have my mustang yet, which is why I was asking. There's nothing wrong with changing out exhaust. I've had it done a couple times before myself, but that was with classic mustangs. It just seemed to me that Ford tried to point out the GT exhaust system as one of the many...

    Gotta Have Stripes!

    I agree. I think black stripes are the best color for the silver. I think they would look great with the red interior. That's not completely red anyway, is it? Doesn't it have some black accents?

    05 GT: Bassani VS. Flowmaster - thoughts?

    I seem to remember an entire page in the Mustang GT brochure devoted to the design that went into the stock exhaust system. They made it sound like they spent a lot of time and effort getting performance and a good tone out of the exhaust. Yet, there are so many posts on this forum about...
