    GT Premium Leather question

    Nope, you only get the leather seating surfaces, the same as on the Premium GT. There is no option available that gives you full leather. :notnice:

    GT Premium Leather question

    One last answer..... The stitched leather instrument panel brow (the very top part of the instrument panel) and console cover are real leather with contrasting stitching, not the vinyl covers that come standard with the other interior packages. I saw them on a car at my local dealer, and they...

    GT Premium Leather question

    I can answer a couple of your questions.... The Premium package is leather on the seating surfaces in the front bucket seats: the remainder of the bucket seats and the entire rear seat are vinyl, not cloth. The info below is from edmunds.com: The interior upgrade package includes...

    Paintshop in MD

    Where in Maryland are you located? If you are anywhere near southern Maryland, I can suggest a shop here that does excellent work.

    Warranty ???'s

    I'm certainly not an expert, but the following items come to mind: - More than likely you will void the warranty on the struts and shocks as they may be operating outside their design range. - You could void the warranty on the differential (a change in the pinion angle due to change in...

    Some of you will claim 'rice' but hear me out...

    I'm not particularly fond of carbon fiber hoods, but that isn't what kills that hood for me. IMO, what makes it "rice" is the number of vents in the hood. If it had only two vents towards the front (similar to the Shelby GT 500 hood) it would be OK, but six vents is ridiculous. :nono:

    Some of you will claim 'rice' but hear me out...

    Sorry, but that hood just screams "rice." If you really want to emulate the older Boss Mustangs, suggest you go with the Classic Design Concepts shaker intake system (the 1969 and 1970 Boss 429s had black shaker hood scoops). The hoods were not painted black, but some had wide black stripes...

    2006 / 2007 Model Differences

    I got the 5 year/60,000 mile power train warranty on my 2007 GT. The dealer provides you with a supplemental warranty form that contains the warranty information, and a signature block to verify you have received the info. Both the buyer and the dealer get a copy of the signed form.

    2006 / 2007 Model Differences

    Other than option packages, I don't see any major differences between the '06 and '07. One nice feature on the '07 is the auxilliary plug in the console for plugging in an iPod or other mp3 player.

    Build date, what number is your car??

    I believe what hotrodnut says is correct: the date on my window sticker is 6/21/06, and the quality control sticker on the spare tire cover says the cover was manufactured on 6/28/06. It's not possible to have a part installed before it is even made.

    Need Help Fast!!!!

    The Roush spoiler covers the holes. Roush removes the factory spoiler from the cars they get from Ford and install their own spoiler. http://store.roushperformance.com/detail.aspx?ID=517

    Finally, my Mustang is on order

    Congrats on the soon-to-be new 'Stang! Mine is equipped somewhat similarly (see my siignature), except I have the aluminum dash and I don't have the active anti-theft system. I was lucky to find it at my local dealer without having to special order it. And they gave me a decent deal on the car...

    Ford Five year powertrain warranty

    It includes the 2007 models..... I got it on my '07 GT purchased three weeks ago. You get a separate sheet of paper that contains the new warranty information.

    Hmm auto or stick?

    At the advanced age of 56 I was reluctant to buy a stick again. I drove both the auto and the stick before buying my '07 GT, and decided the stick was the way to go. I'm not sorry I went with the stick: I spent quite a bit of time in stop and go traffic in the Washington, DC area yesterday, and...

    My New 2007 Alloy GT [pics now here]

    You definitely picked the right color. That Alloy color was what first attracted me to my car. Your interior is absolutely stunning.

    thoughts on dealer upgrades/upsell at time of purchase

    Lo Jack works..... Dateline NBC did a piece on car theft. They told a story about a woman in Florida who had her Honda stolen TEN TIMES! It as equipped with Lo Jack, and each time it was found undamaged within an hour after being stolen. At the end of the piece, they had an update: the Honda...

    V6 or V8 for next car

    I bought my stick GT about 12 days ago, and I hadn't driven a stick since 2002. Once you find out how the clutch engages on a new car, the rest comes back quickly: it only took me less than two minutes in the GT to get used to a stick again. :)

    2007 GT appearance package hood scoop

    I bought my GT with the GT appearance package nine days ago. The appearance package was one of the things that sold me on this particular car.

    V6 or V8 for next car

    I wouldn't be too concerned about the insurance cost for the V8. I'm over fifty, and the insurance on my week old 2007 GT only costs $44 more every six months than insurance on my ex-wife's 2002 Focus ZX3. 07 GT Premium, Alloy clearcoat 5 speed manual 3.55 ratio limited slip rear end GT...
