    2012 Prices , x plan and destination fee.........HEADACHES!!!

    You just have to be clear on whether the price quoted is "out the door" or not. Otherwise you may be comparing apples to oranges and that great deal may not be so great when you get there and they add fuel charge, FDAF, D&D, and TTL after the fact. One thing which I HIGHLY recommend is...

    cs glassback

    All coupes have glass rear windows which cover up everything above the trunk. You can get a glass roof on a California Special though if that's what you mean. Just take a look at my garage for an example.

    Prospective Mustang Buyer

    This seems like a pretty good reason: 2011 Ford Mustang GT takes Best Resale Value honors - StangNet With either the v6 or the GT, I'd recommend getting the Premium model to get Ford Sync.

    best cure for skip during midcorner bumps

    I wouldn't be too surprised to see a turbo'd 4 cylinder just so Ford could brag about decent horsepower along with 40+ MPG highway.

    need a jack and spare...

    I wonder just how much extra MPG's the V6's are really getting by not having the spare tire. I don't suspect that it would be very much. If they were looking for every possible way to reduce weight then why not get rid of the useless back seat too.

    What do you enjoy listening to most while driving?

    I was listening to music on my iPod for a while but just recently started listening to audiobooks (Currently listening to On a Pale Horse by Piers Anthony) through my Droid Incredible. I have it set up where when I start the car, it automatically pairs to my phone via bluetooth and MortPlayer...

    CALLING ALL 2011 OWNERS, YOUR VOICES ARE NEEDED

    Hey, that's me :nice: Glad to see the idea getting some traction. I understand Ford having it as an incentive for the 2012 model but I just hope that they eventually bring it to the 2011 Mustang as well. If we do eventually get a Sync update and it doesn't include AppLink then that is total BS.

    SCT Tuner and extras for sale!

    Bama's lifetime tunes aren't transferable to another owner or car. You could still use the tuner assuming the previous car had been returned to stock but you would have to pay american muscle $150 to enroll your car to the tunes for life program.

    First spirited runs in '12 GTCS

    2011/2012 Auto's come with 3.15:1 as the only option from the factory. With the Manual's you can go with 3.31:1 (stock), 3.55:1, or 3.73:1. This applies to all GT's not just the California Special. If you want anything other than 3.15:1 in an auto then you will have to swap it after it is...

    5.0?

    Maybe depending upon your model year but it probably won't be easy. If you are going to go through all of that trouble, it might be worth it to pay the extra $5k for a Boss 302 crate engine in it instead of the regular 5.0 Coyote.

    need a jack and spare...

    Here's the kicker. The tire sealant gunk will require you to replace the Tire Pressure Monitor for the tire which costs about $30. Better to just use that roadside assistance while you can and have your car towed to a dealer. One of the used 2011 V6 Premiums I was looking at came with a spare...

    Exhaust tips

    Does the 2012 Mustang GT have different exhaust tips than the 2011 Mustang GT? I saw a new 5.0 in my parking lot at work today. I'm not sure if it was 2011 or 2012 but the chrome exhaust tips were definately larger than on my 2011 GT and said Boss on them. Everything else on the car appeared...

    to those of you with Bama tunes from AM...

    I've seen downloads on windows get corrupted where the file gets created but doesn't get populated with data. Try downloading the attachment again. I'm surprised that Bama doesn't send you a checksum of the file along with the attachment or at least exactly how big it is supposed to be. It...

    Two days after owning my 2012 mustang gt, review

    That's correct on a short run (1/8 or 1/4 mile) because the car has to do less shifts and can finish in a lower gear. Extend it out to a longer race (i.e salt flats, etc) where both cars have a chance to spend some time in top gear and the 3.31 gears would have an advantage due to a higher top...

    How much did you pay for your 2011 mustang GT? need help on pricing

    True but that probably only worked because it was last years model that they wanted to clear off of their lot. I doubt you'd be able to find a dealer that would let you custom order a new one with the exact options you want for less than X-Plan - coupons/rebates.

    NY owners, How much did you pay for 11/12 GT

    I think there is a $2000 incentive right now on the 2011 models. You could aways join the Mustang Club of America for $50 to get X-Plan pricing (Invoice - 0.4% + $275) and also request brochures from Ford's website and hope for a personal $750 coupon. You still get the public incentives with...

    Installing Aftermarket Amp in a 2011, Is there a harness out yet?

    I doubt a 12 foot subwoofer would fit in your trunk ;)

    Just Picked up my 2012 GTCS

    I can't really tell from your pic. Is the paint on the wheels black or argent (i.e. the same gray color found on the 2011 CS). Back when I was considering a 2012, I found conflicting information.

    Just Picked up my 2012 GTCS

    I'd take a GTCS over a Boss for a Daily Driver (You can't get the Boss with Ford Sync). What options did you get?
