    Old School vs. New School.......sick of the all the B.S

    It would be so refreshing to read an opinion where the writer has the maturity to make a point without calling people names and putting them down. One thing is for sure, kids today seem to have a vocabulary of words limited to four letters. :bang: That being said, I remember a post just...

    Spoiler: To delete or not to delete, that is the question

    If I were you and still deciding, I wouldn't order the car with it. You can always add it later, but now you give yourself more time to look at different styles to pick that one spoiler that fits you. Hey, that white with red interior looks really good. Man this is getting hard. 2000 White...

    I can't believe this is mine

    Boy, that red sure looks good on black. I like my top down and black gets so hot in Oklahoma, so I've been thinking tan again. Red just might change my mind. 2000 White Vert

    Looking for multi-disk CD Changer

    OK, I might consider the idea after Christmas. What I was hoping was to find a cheap (ebay) multidisk cd changer. But as I shopped, it appeared that some cd changers might not fit or work. The IPOD isn't the cheap route, but it may be the solution. Thanks. Have to wait though, I barely...

    Looking for multi-disk CD Changer

    I'm wanting to add a CD changer to my 2000 V6 mustang. I currently have the cheap Ford singledisk and want somethig better. Will a trunk mounted CD player plug into the Ford Radio? Is there a certain type of plug I need to be concerned with? Thanks for any information. 2000 White Vert

    How is the leather interior holding up?

    Mmmm, I think there was a time this was true, but materials are a lot better now. I have 85000 miles on my 2000 convertible with cloth interior and like it a lot because it still looks like new. I leave the top down 80% of the year in Oklahoma, so it gets a lot of humid +95 degree sun and wind...

    '05 GT Handling

    I don't agree. When I go to the dealership and the salesman quickly realizes I know enough about the car that he starts asking me questions, I can only credit discussions like this. I wanted to know the differences between the two cars and now I know a little more. If the discussion is something...

    Do convertibles look good with stripes?

    So how old do you have to be to be an old fart? I still have a lot of spring in my step. I am also waiting for the 05 Vert and considering stripes. But I think I will leave off the side stripe. I don't know, my 2000 Vert has the side stripe on it and I guess I'm kind of tired of it. But my...

    salesmen scared to go on test drives?

    I test drove a run out 97 Cobra last year. The dealer watched closely as I dropped it a gear and floored it. I was surprise that he didn't flench at all. Instead he told me this car wasn't the car for me. We got to talking and it turns out that he races Mustangs and is the salesman they assign...

    Interior plastic disappointment...

    I didn't think USA1 called it crap. I agree with much of what he said, but I still like the car. I will say that the mustang has never had roomy back seats, but my kids never complain. I personally want fabric seats because it's cooler in the summer with the top down. But the seats I sat in felt...

    Looking forward to the Vert...

    My dealer told me it will be a mid year 05 model. I guess that means 2005.5 like the 1964.5 stang. 2000 White Vert

    05's in Oklahoma City

    Just like the others said, they do look better in person. I've been waiting to look at the V6 because in the pictures the lower part of the front bumper looks funny to me. But in person I think they almost look better than the GT bumpers. No I didn't get pictures but if you do a search on...

    Auto Trans in a Cobra?

    That is what I was thinking. The hood, bumpers and wheels were all cobra. The trans was a five speed which is not cheap. Nice car, but I'm a standard guy. Thanks 2000 White Vert

    Auto Trans in a Cobra?

    OK, Im confused. I went to test drive a 01 Cobra Vert, low and behold, it's got an automatic. I didn't know you could do that. Is that a specail order? I'm not interested in a auto, but is it worth more with the auto? 2000 White Vert

    How much!

    I went to our local Ford dealer to buy a setscrew that came off one of the latch hooks on my convertible top. Ford will sell me one at the bargain price of $87. But as a bonus, they will include the whole latching mechanism for that price. The parts guy suggested I go to a salvage yard to get...

    Radio controls on the steering wheel????

    I welcome radio controls on the wheel. I'm tall enough that I have the seat set all the way and in a slight recline. I have to lean forward just to shift. Honestly one reason I'm considering a Vett for my next car is the telescopic steering wheel. Bring them on. 2000 White Vert

    Stang's drag coefficients?

    >>The look of the new stang is what will sell it, not the efficiency.<< Yep, if you go back and read the comments folks liked about the 05, most of them are about the looks of the front end. That great big open mouth grill that looks as if it's trying suck all the air out of the sky. It made...
