    For all of us that hate the muffler placement

    I've said it before and I'll say it again: you can see the mufflers from behind on the new BMW M5. If they can be seen on a $90K uber-sedan, why is it such a big deal on a $25K Mustang? :shrug:

    For all of us that hate the muffler placement

    I fail to understand the nitpicking about the muffler placement. Almost all new cars have the muffs behind the rear axle. It's a safety issue and it's time to get over it.

    X plan free PIN right here enjoy!

    They're supposed to ask. This is straight from the partner website: Maybe you lucked out with a dealer that didn't care. When I bought my Mazda, they asked for proof.

    X plan free PIN right here enjoy!

    That's all well and good but you still have to prove you're employed by IBM before the PIN is accepted by dealer. Otherwise, it's useless.

    X-Plan for all!

    That's why I like X-plan. I hate to haggle with car salesmen. I'd rather walk into the dealership knowing exactly what my price is going to be. The only negotiating left to do is over the trade-in (if I have one).

    X-Plan for all!

    When I log into the Ford Partner website (where I got my pin), I can then click the link for Ford Direct site and it will shows x-plan price for any Ford in stock at the dealerships you select.

    Is it true???

    I'm glad you were able to interpret that because I sure couldn't!

    Is it true???

    I'd try to answer but I'm not sure what you're asking. :scratch:

    Why high power V8's are better.

    Where's "mball" and "srt4life" when you need 'em? :shrug: :D

    Where to get Red Door Trim???

    Call the parts department at your dealer. If it's available, they should be able to order it for you. I have a feeling though that with high demand and production ramping up you might have to wait awhile.

    Sorry about that. I didn't realize they had taken them down.

    two 05 gt`s run at the track... [video]

    Like I've said before, if you couple the fact the GM is discounting the GTO that heavily and they've still only sold 50% of what they expected, it won't be too much longer and we'll be talking about the GTO in the past tense like we do the Camaro and Firebird.

    What fuel are you running 87 89 91

    Correct. The point I was trying to make is that base gasoline is the same no matter where you buy it (with the one exception I mentioned). Trying to say brand x is better than brand y in regard to anything but additives is nonsense.

    New Stang tops out at 143?

    It's speed limited from the factory.

    What fuel are you running 87 89 91

    Just an FYI...Just because you buy gas at an Amaco station, it doesn't mean the gasoline was refined in an Amaco refinery. All refiners blend gasoline to a spec and it all gets dumped into the same pipeline where it goes to the distributor. The gas you buy at Amaco could come from a Chevron or...

    What fuel are you running 87 89 91

    That used to be true but not any longer. The only advantage premium has over regular is the octane.

    What is the best way to launch an Auto Trans

    Really? It's very consistent with what Motor Trend ran with an auto GT. How do you explain that? BS as well?

    X-Plan... Denied!

    One more thing: I believe you have to click on the Ford Direct link from the X-Plan website (I do it form fordpartner.com) in order to see the x-plan prices. Going straight to Ford Direct will only show MSRP. If there is way to show x-plan without going throught the plan site, I'd sure like...

    X-Plan... Denied!

    If you're talking about the Ford Direct website, they all show X-plan pricing whether they accept it or not. The site is run by Ford and will display X-Plan pricing to the plan participants but it's solely up to the dealer as to whether they will accept the x-plan discount. Just because you...
