    First Oil Change?

    Ah, that makes sense. For me, peace of mind is worth the $10 per oil change more tho.

    Drive live chatter ?

    I actually love the transmission noise/whine being slightly audible, really neat sound.

    First Oil Change?

    Why would living in a dusty area encourage someone to go with a blend instead of full synthetic? What difference does that make?

    First Oil Change?

    I say wait till at least 3000 for synthetic (maybe you don't need too, but whatever) and use mobil1 0w20. I read a couple of articles on mobil1 0w20 and supposedly it was outperforming their 5w30 because it had a better additive package. Plus it is specifically made for vehicles that are...

    Got my Black GT Today

    Yeah, it really surprised me. People basically ignored/didn't care about my Cobra, but in the 3 days I've had the car, jeeze, I've had so many people come up. It's cool, but it sucks that it won't last when there are more cars out there, oh well!

    05 Tranny failure

    I'm sure there were, but the question is how many weren't caused by abuse.

    Gas tank won't take gas, CD player won't play CD's...etc...

    My car doesn't have the gas problem FYI. The shaker skips occasionally on CD's, but no ejecting and whatnot, and that could just be that it is more sensitive to scratches then my last cd player.

    Got my Black GT Today

    Well I got it, black GT premium with 5 speed, IUP, Bullit Wheels, Active Alarm, Side Airbags. Basically everything besides the Shaker 1000. I had originally wanted the Shaker 1000, but after hearing the 500 in person it is great. It sounds just as good as the aftermarket system I had in my Mazda...

    Decision Time: GT or No GT?

    Well I personally think mineral gray is one of the most beautiful colors there is.

    AUTO to MANUAL conversion - cheapest way?

    Sell it and get a 5 speed. Seriously, it will also make it a ****load easier for the future when you want to sell the car.

    2003 cobra or 2005 GT=which should i buy?

    Get cobra obviously :P The 05 GT is still a GT, no matter how hyped up people are about it. People are expecting a miracle car for 25k.

    Any buyer's remorse from 03/04 Cobra owners?

    As much as I loved the car, I had buyers remorse. Nothing about the quality of the car, I just think I should have kept my GT for financial reasons.

    03 Cobra vs. 03 Mach 1

    The way the cobra is geared it might as well be a 5 speed, the difference between 5th and 6th isnt really that great IMO. Although it is a stronger, beefier tranny which is an advantage, but the 6th gear is mostly "neat" factor instead of that useful. I do agree the Cobra looks better, it is...

    03 Cobra vs. 03 Mach 1

    Depends, the mach is cheaper, gets better MPG and might be slightly less to insure. I'm willing to bet the Mach is more reliable also, as there are many issues on the 03, albeit most people don't have them. I personally would take the Mach and save the $$, and put a blower on it if you want...

    Gas Mileage

    Damn that would be pretty good, usually on cars I own I get the EPA Highway mileage in my regular driving which is like 60% highway/40% low traffic around the city. If I could get 27mpg with a 05 I would be pumped!
