    I finally sold my 2010 Mustang and placed an order on a 2012 5.0! I have questions!

    Umm...purple? Who in their right mind would want purple? When it comes to headlights, the point is to SEE the road...not to look cool. As if that even looked cool. :shrug:

    New Winter Rubber

    I don't have pics....but... I have essentially the same car, different color. A 19" Blizzak is like, $1,100 for 4. No thanks. I had my local Discount Tire order up some Drag wheels...they are flat black with red stripe...18". Drag Wheels. Extreme Alloys. | DR-31 I have a 235/55/18...

    Can't wait

    I got the 87 street, 91 performance and 93 race for my '11 GT. I have the tuner sitting next to me, but I need a pee cee to download the tunes to the programmer. I'm gonna hit up one of the nerds at work to help me with the transfer...as I have a Mac. I'm also using the stock air box...for now...

    SYNC and USB thumb drives

    I will try to plug in my old iPod shuffle....have not tried that yet. Lately I told SYNC to "play genre ROCK"...and it plays/skips perfectly. Maybe it needs time to figure out the next song's metadata or something...who knows. The bummer of my iPod shuffle is that it sits on a little "base"...

    new 2011 smaller than my old 06?

    I'm 6'2" and I have to move the seat up to effectively work the clutch. My biggest complaint is that the power seats don't have a power switch for the seat back recline. That's just lame. :notnice:

    SYNC and USB thumb drives

    My car does not have the Navigation option. That said, my USB drive DOES work for the most part...it's just if you're "playing all" and let it go, it will not always play the next track. But if you specifically tell it to play that track, it will. It's odd. I tested it again today by...

    SYNC and USB thumb drives

    Hey, So I have an '11 GT with SYNC, and I have a question about the USB port in the armrest for playing music. I bought a standard PC/Mac USB thumb drive...8GB...and loaded about 700 songs from my iTunes onto it. I did a straight copy, so some are MP3s, some are AACs...whatever. When I...

    New wheels... Lugs dont fit?

    I got some "tuner" wheels for my snow tires. They require a thinner lug nut...the OEM lugs/socket won't fit. Spline drive nuts are what I'm using....from Gorilla, I believe. Mine are gloss black and my wheels are matte black. You prolly need a set of lugs like that.

    2011 Mustang GT Revs

    I think it's "Drive by wire." Fly by wire would be for planes. :)

    3.73's are IN! Nice Job By Steeda!

    I have a 6MT with 3.73s. Most of my driving has been city since I got the car, and I get about 17-ish to 19-ish avg. mpg per tank. On the highway, I turn about 2250 at 70. MPG there is uncertain as I haven't done much strict highway driving, but it's in the mid 20s if I reset the computer...

    my 2011GT exhaust sounds

    Looking at your gauges...I suppose I am seeing what a regular GT without "MyColor" looks like? I like yours better. I'm not a fan of my white, back-lit gauges in the daytime.

    2012 Ford Mustang Boss at Laguna Seca

    Really? Where are the "dumps?" The Boss has quad exhaust...dual rear, and side exit in front of the rear tire. All open, all the time...as far as I know. I saw the Boss 302 at the NAIAS today strapped to a dyno. They ran the car to redline in 4 gears...120mph...I believe. Sounded cool, but...

    2011 Mustang GT Revs

    I find my '11 seems to accelerate with little to no throttle lag. Same for rev-matching downshifts. It seems to be pretty accurate and lag-free. My '07 had a noticeable lag under acceleration (at times)...and for sure on rev-matching downshifts. So far I'm ok with it.

    I finally sold my 2010 Mustang and placed an order on a 2012 5.0! I have questions!

    My '07 had 3.55s and at 70mph I turned 2250 rpm. In my '11 with 3.73s at 70mph, I turn 2000-2250 rpm. I give that range because I've only had the stock Brembo wheel on the car for a week, and my new snow tires/wheels are 1" taller than OEM...but I'm pretty sure it's 2,250. Both cars were...

    Who is using an oil catch can?

    Ok, so maybe...if you're going with a super high HP motor configuration, but for a stock motor? Why don't any OEMs put this technology in their cars, if it was such a big deal? Sure, machined metal cans look sweet, but those few dribbles of oil are probably not going to amount to much in...

    Mustangs don't do well in the snow..

    Who are you saving the Mustang for? Are you keeping the car forever? Giving it to one of your kids, perhaps? Or are you just saving it for the next buyer? You're going to go 3-4 months, driving a piece of crap, while your pride and joy sits in a garage(?). What happens if in 3 months, you...
