    GTO,CHARGER quicker the the STANG

    I think one reason some of you are complaining about HP vs other cars that cost more is because those other cars are still very affordable. The argument about HP and price is valid but the more expensive cars w/ more HP are still very affordable. If the stang cost $3000 more but came w/ 375 HP...

    X-Plan for 2006 GT

    Hey Yellow-Explain your back dating comment-I'm a little slow. Update-just got off phone w/ the GM, who admitted that the dealership made a mistake on the order, but said the only thing he is willing to do is get a new trunklid or remove the spoiler at his cost to me or order me another gt on...

    GTO,CHARGER quicker the the STANG

    It's sort of scary when I find myself agreeing w/ Mr. Tuinals, but I agree w/ your comment about the GT being a letdown after droolling over the stang concepts. They looked so hot and like they could actually be produced, and I started looking for the production cars to be similar. But after I...

    GTO,CHARGER quicker the the STANG

    jasonlee is on the right track; all of you wide eyed stang enthusiasts need to keep in mind that although ford builds the stang they are an auto manuf BUSINESS. They are trying (not hard enough) to make a profit. Judging from stang sales vs camaro (zero); GTO; Charger, etc they are on to...

    Mitsubishi 2006 Eclipse

    Sawman-embrace your feminine side-buy yourself a new beetle; that 03 cobra will cover any questions about your masculinity.

    What are the standard options available?

    IMO the My Color is a girl's toy. If it has the V-8, a/c, and a 5-speed you're all set. If it's a vert you should know the external temp because you should always drive w/ the top down. I actually find myself turning off the stereo to listen to the sounds of the engine going thru the gears.

    Chevy SSR or Mustang GT Vert

    I think you should buy the truck, but me, if all cars are priced the same, I'm getting the new Aston Martin DB 9 or the new Porsche Carrera something that is only $450 k. If we have to price them differently I guess I'll stick w/ my GT Vert.

    GT Vert and Racing Stripes Question??

    GT-03 I don't care much for that white 04 vert w/ stripes, but your gray 03 vert w/ stripes & shaker looks really nice.

    X-Plan for 2006 GT

    No, it's not on the sticker. It's on the DORA, my name is on the sticker, spoiler delete is not. That leads me to believe that it was the dealer who made an error--possibly the order was re-entered after I had a copy of the original, and they left off the spoiler delete option. Their...

    X-Plan for 2006 GT

    Yellow-thanks for your help. By accepting the car I probably put myself in a poor position to negotiate, but they would have been happy for me to decline the car, and I didn't want to wait for an 06. I also realize I got a great car at a great price, but I would think they might meet me half...

    Radar Detectors

    V-1 arrows? Is that for radar direction--front or rear?

    Competition at the stop lights and on the highways

    Good point about the stang looking better. If a WRX beats me I still get the last laugh because look at the chick he's going home with. You always have to look at them in the morning.

    Radar Detectors

    I know this is an old discussion, but now that I have a new stang I am shopping for a radar detector. I would love to hear actual experiences by owners of detectors as to which ones have saved drivers from the ticket revenue machine. I don't care which one is statistically more sensitive, but...

    X-Plan for 2006 GT

    Yellow-where have you been? I thought you must have taken a job selling Hyundais because I haven't seen your posts lately. I am in need of some free advice from a ford dealer--You. I just picked up my redfire gt vert last week which the dealer delivered w/o hassle on x-plan. Car was...

    GTO,CHARGER quicker the the STANG

    Being the fastest; most HP; quickest 1/4 mi; baddest, etc is what modding your car is all about. When a manufacturer focuses on one narrow stat they end up a car that may excell at the dragstrip but stinks in everyday driving. I think one of the best features of the new stang is that it is a...

    Initial Impressions

    It might be interesting to have a thread w/ basic observations a mileage intervals. At 100 mi I have a pretty limited window to comment on. I will be more interested to see how the build quality holds up and how the car feels at 15,000 & 30,000 miles. Some owners have probably had their cars...

    GT Vert and Racing Stripes Question??

    Can I change my mind? Your 03 vert w/ stripes looks sweet. I guess it depends on the color combo--that gray w/ black looks great.

    Mitsubishi 2006 Eclipse

    sawman-I think you summed it up pretty well. I was wondering why I liked seeing a girl driving a gt stang, especially one w/ a 5-speed.

    Initial Impressions

    Thanks 05Philly-my last nice car was leased so I unconciously took less interest in the exterior finish. This one I plan to keep for a while. I'm trying to understand these waterless detail products, and your warning concerns me. You don't hesitate to use a waterless detail spray on a black...
