    Plan Pricing

    I got $1000 off MSRP with no plan.

    New tires and wheels ***PICS***

    Did the ride quality go down with the 18s?

    kinda impatient....

    I have my Vehicle Order Confirmation, with order number and priority code (11), but the part for DORA is blank. How and when do I get a DORA, and will it have the build date on it?

    Need help with color choice

    If you're the kind that likes to stand out and be noticed, get the blue. It's got more 'gotcha' than the tungsten. But I really like the tungsten with the silver stripe. It's very classy and understated. Get the light graphite interior with either one.

    '06 tire pressure gauges

    I thought the tire pressure sensors were only for SUVs. Are they on the '06 Mustang? Depending on how the system works, wheel swaps can be very difficult, especially if the system relies on sensors built into the wheels, like Honda's system. Tire rotation can also be a pain, since the sensors...

    Center Mounted fog lights

    Give the aftermarket some time. I'm sure somebody will come up with some. It takes time to tool up and get stuff like that in production. I like that look a lot, too.

    Stripes?

    What vendor has the best quality stripes? I want the wide dual stripes that go from front to back.

    Just ordered my '06

    I just ordered my '06 GT 5-speed coupe :banana: This is my 50th birthday present to myself and the first new car I have bought, so it's an exciting moment! I got a Performance White car, Light Graphite interior, premium pkg, interior upgrade pkg, active theft system, side air bags, and...

    Pics of light graphite interior?

    Can someone post pics of the light graphite interior in their '05 GT please? I am considering ordering this color, but have been unable to see it in an actual car. Thanks!

    Thinking of ordering an '06

    Thanks for the tip about Louisburg. Are they a big enough dealer where they have enough Mustang allocation to actually get the car? Some dealers will take your deposit and the car never shows up. I'm not saying they would do that, but selling a hot car for $50 over invoice makes you wonder.

    Was a stick the wrong choice?

    I've had motorcycles all my life, and of course, all of them are 'manuals'. With time, you'll know intuitively what gear you're in, what gear you should be in based on vehicle speed, and what gear you should be in coming out of that corner up ahead. Give it time. It will become second nature and...

    Thinking of ordering an '06

    Mechanically, the GTO is awesome. But the styling is much too bland. If it didn't have those GTO badges on it, you wouldn't know what it was. There's no mistaking a Mustang. The GT500 is going to be awesome, too, but I don't want to spend that much money for a weekend toy. My dealer says he...

    Thinking of ordering an '06

    I think I'm going to order white with light graphite leather. Then add Sonic Blue stripes for that '65 GT350 look :) I'm waiting on the dealer to call me when he gets a 5-speed GT in so I can drive it. By back hurt me somewhat after I drove the automatic the other day. Some seats hit me...

    2006 18" wheels

    $895 is kinda pricey for a 1" upgrade in wheels from 17" to 18". Will there be any suspension or brake improvements? I would think the 18s would ride rougher if there was no suspension retuning to make up for the shorter sidewall height.

    Thinking of ordering an '06

    I have to admit that all my life I've been an Oldsmobile guy, had lots of 442s and Hurst/Olds'. But I'm also at the point where I'm tired of wrenching and want a NEW car. The GTO just doesn't do it for me, and no offense to the Mopar guys, but I don't want a 4-door. So I drove an '05 Mustang GT...
