    How many people here really think they are never gonna sell their Mustang and why?

    Exactly. Unless of course, it's a Supra :nonono: $50-60k for a car that was 40k new. "40k invested". I haven't looked at them in a while,I look at them on autotrader whenever I need a good laugh. Didn't take long: http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?ct=p&car_id=266321434 wtf.

    How many people here really think they are never gonna sell their Mustang and why?

    :shrug: Of 183 S281 coupes made in 1999, 5 were Rio Red, 2 of which were supercharged. Mine, and the other one in San Diego (last I knew). Take that however you want.

    How many people here really think they are never gonna sell their Mustang and why?

    Not unless something REALLY dire came up, would I sell it. Considering it's 1 of 2, I'm just going to hold onto it. That said, I'm now in debate on modding it. Since it's 1 of 2, part of me wants to keep it original (but the little kid in me wants to make it faster and louder)... Bah...

    Anyone autocross in South Bend, IN (Tire Rack)?

    Thinking about checking it out this summer, but would like some info from anyone that does it. Dragstrips don't really appeal to me that much (granted, I haven't done it, I may give that a whirl at some point too, maybe I'll get hooked...) I'm only an hour from Tire Rack, and I've seen...

    Saleen gears in an 02 saleen 5 speed

    Mine's a 99 and I'm fairly certain it's got 3.55s in it. I wouldn't think they'd have changed that for 02. I'll see if I can dig something up. You can actually call Saleen and ask them too. You can give them your VIN and they'll tell you the build numbers and any specific options/specs...

    Coil on plug and other maint. advice

    The suspension is fine. When we had it up on the lift to adjust the midpipe, we noticed a couple of the boots were cracked. No doubt due to them being 10-11 years old. Suspension wise (ride) it's fine. Nothing rattles/bangs/etc. The previous owner had to replace a strut/control arm on the...

    Coil on plug and other maint. advice

    GettinThere, yes, it's 18,000. ;) Thanks for the advice, it'll save me time and money. I had my suspicions on the COPs (replacing them that is). The car ran fine before it got put away. I treated a full tank with Sta-Bil (didn't last year, there wasn't a problem). That said. After this...

    Coil on plug and other maint. advice

    As my car sits for the winter, I'm getting a list of things I'll need to do a regular maintenance routine on it. Please note, I'm not the most mechanically inclined when it comes to cars, but I've got several friends that are mechanics. Item 1: Are COPs something that should be replaced? The...

    What's your average MPG?

    Same as the boost gauge. It moves inversely to the gas gauge. :)

    What's your average MPG?

    12-13 usually. It doesn't get out much, but it's used when it does. Usually the first tank after hibernations gets me about 150 -160 miles. I've only checked the mileage once. It wasn't one of the factors with buying it, since it's a fair weather/weekend toy.

    Anyone Else Here Sick Of Winter

    NE Indiana sucks as well. I had to take some pictures of my car yesterday for insurance (needed them for the file). First time I've seen my car since October when I packed it up. It's in a heated garage though, so it's cozy at least. I can't wait for April.

    Att. Gear Bangers! Shift Knob Preference? Post em.

    Like I said, it came with the car, I haven't even bothered looking at anything else. I love it. I'm also a pool player, so it's somewhat fitting. :D

    NITROUS

    I've been wondering about this myself. A friend of mine has a new (never used) 75-shot he said he'd give to me (even said he help install it). Decisions, decisions...
