Work is slow today so I checked the 'yards and sho nuff an 09 s197 just landed yesterday so I tried for a nice cowl. Of course it had a split in it but on the way I saw on Okee Blvd one of the many undercover s650 5.0's with a Porsche 911 pulled over lol. I'm sure he entrapped him into a...

So my next door neighbor is a kiddo with an s550, lowered so much that an integral fuel delivery part was compromised and he had to park it off the properly until he got it fixed it stank so bad. It's also loud enough to make me jump out of my seat on cold start which I can appreciate. So of...

My landlady is from Russia and her mother was the last generation of the nobility aristocracy. She herself is a piano prodigy who attended Gnessin. As you could imagine she doesn't really understand Mustang culture. Attached are my noise complaints that I think you'll find amusing. She told...

Silly question stupid post but none of the listings on the window sticker or websites list the oil cooler as included in the PP. Believe it or not I don't care about a stitched center console lid or a rear spoiler TIA preesh

These are the big'uns but even the small dealers in FL are all like this

I know I come off as a clown but I'm actually a no-nonsense businessman which is why I can spend all my time screwing around on the forums, feeding the birds in the yard and taking naps. So anyway this probably violates a forum rule but I'll tell you about my latest venture in the photonics...

So I bought my car new back in 2007. It was just a bare bones GT except for a 3.55 option which I ended up ditching for the 4.10's in short time. They had it in the showroom with some stupid bling rims and I told em put the stock ones back on and take those off the price. I had been working...

My ol' s197 has developed a new water leak. It's either the cowl and/or the cowl grommets underneath. A new cowl from CJ is outrageously priced at $1020; ebay used who knows what you're getting and how long the seal will last. Grommets aren't so bad at $80 for all ten plus a heat gun to seal...

They've got a do not touch sign on it in the showroom like it's a gen-1 GT500KR or something; relax man the out-the-door price is $66k. I've had to scold dealers for putting DH's out on the front line while putting the rental cars in the showroom. Anyway that would be pretty sweet. New 2025...

Nothing like starting a fresh week with cruising cars.com for any new arrivals, checking the manual transmission box, seeing the perfect color and options, going in for a closer look and it's really an automatic I mean ARE YOU KIDDING ME ...

Maybe my dissenters are right. Ppl ask me what the point is of obsessing over something that just takes you places. As Super Nintendo Chalmers once said "a car is just something that takes you from point A to point B and on weekends point C" My father, who has been a professional mechanic...

We all know Mustang is America's car for weekend fun; especially the convertible. I do remember the foxbody verts coming with a luggage rack and being relatively unfamiliar with gen-1's just learned that yes those verts could be had with one as well. So whaddya say? I know some of yall's...

For as long as Mustangs have been available for purchase, there has been a huge supply of preowned ones available because these cars have a general cycle: A young man buys one and pursues social activity; sooner or later someone lets him in, she gets pregnant and he sells the car sometime...

I just learned about the battery monitoring system. Are you kidding me? What ever happened to negative cable off first and on last and that's it? And I thought the Keep Alive Module or "KAM" on my s197 was excessive Between that and the car not recognizing an oil cooler on a non-PP car and...

So Mustangs are certainly selling right now. Yep. In fact, absolutey every Mustang I was looking at while waiting for a work catalyst to pop has been sold. Just a complete parade of them rolling past me. All that are left are the "rental car" colors; silver white and black. Some ppl (incl...

I can't believe nobody is taking the Hurst; I love mine in the s197 with a 38% throw reduction albeit at the cost of slower shifting. Anyway evidently the MGW is the gold standard for the MT-82 cars and after watching the reviews I can def see why; the hybrid side-arms definitely correct a...

So obviously the coyote is a world-class motor and if you have a minute to spare you should watch this vid I linked for some amazing facts about it. The only downside about the coyote cars to me is, the firing order causes the exhaust to sound well, "not right" regardless of your combinations...

If I can swing an s650 my mods will be fairly minimal as I'm coming off an approx 350bhp s197 4.6 and 480 is plenty. Hp-wise it will only be a CAI, cat delete and flowmaster outlaws and I realize all of that is really just for sound; if the dealer tells me to shove the warranty over a cat...

I've had the Hurst in my 07 GT since new and am very used to the maximum throw reduction at the cost of being a slow, retro, touring-type shifter that is not ideal for racing. If I get an s650 I was planning on sticking with the Hurst but I haven't found a single review anywhere on it...

My s197 wheel hopped pretty badly when I got it so I got the Steeda rear LCA's and upper bushing. I was also abusing the car pretty badly, i.e. redline clutch-drops. I'm not the same person I was 20 years ago and a new s650 would only be subjected to granny upshifts and a little bit of spin off...
