When I first got my manual, after driving an auto for about 10 years, I almost had some reservations at first, as most of my driving is boring commute stuff. I've adapted and wouldn't have a car like this (2015 GT PP) without a manual. I've rented a 10 speed for a couple business trips, and...

Thanks for the good info. guys.

I'm curious to see what others are running their wheels at. I drive a 15 GTPP, and my right front wheel lugs have been coming loose. I noticed that the lugs on this wheel were a bit looser than the rest about a month ago when I switched to my winter ties. I checked last weekend, and I was...

Hopefully you don't have Liberty Mutual. My son was in a crash with an adult woman last fall. She received a citation for travelling in a turn lane, and in the end Liberty Mutual still found a way to blame the teenager. They paid for the damage, but we had to pay the deductable and it goes...

So, I've had my 15gt pp for just over a year now, so I thought I'd write a quick summary of my thoughts so far. Overall, it's been awesome. I'm using this as my daily driver, so it has been very nice having a fun car to do my daily 20-25 minute commute. I even had the chance to rent a new...

Well? what happened?

I think they did it because it's nicer. To me, the start button on my car is a little cheap looking if I'm being honest. There's a disconnect between the cheesy plastic button and the roar you hear when you push it!

Pretty cool. It got me thinking about my old '67. Back then, when I was restoring my car, the blinker indicators were missing, so being the teenage boy I was, I decided to do something a little different (which was pretty much par for the course, as I was painting a '67 mustang bright yellow...

It could have been an 18, as that would make more sense for a rental, but it didn't have any digital instruments, so that's really why I assumed it had to be a 17. The 15 doesn't have the turn signals integrated into the vents, I do know that. I wish it did. My old '67 did, so that would be...

When my rental car guy saw me parking my 15gtpp, he got excited and let me take the 17gt they had just gotten back on the lot. I had a quick day trip of about 1.5 hrs each way on the freeway, so it wasn't amazing or anything, but it was nice to have a similar car. First off, this was an...

Daily Driver, about 20 to 25 minutes each way. Very boring, straight drive, but it's way less boring in the Mustang for sure. I'm not really the type to have a car stored away, and as much as I love my 2015 gt, it's not like it's a ferrari or something. Keeping it low miles and perfect isn't...

Seems like a pretty good price. I bought a car that had almost these same specs except the Recarro seats, last fall for 25,900, in Billings, MT. It was about 5k cheaper than anything I had found in my home town at that point. I was almost ready to buy one for just over 29 that didn't have the...

Update. I took my 15gt into the dealer last week. I got it back on Monday afternoon, after they replaced the evaporator. The rep I was dealing with said he hadn't seen an evaporator go out yet, as I was telling him how it sounded like a pretty chronic issue. So far so good. thankfully I had...

I totally agree about expanding your search. I spent $400 on a plane ticket, and then drove about 9 hours, but I saved a lot of money. Just the price of the car I almost purchased vs. the one I got was about $6k. Factor in the upgrades and the difference was pretty staggering (the more...

I just got the call on mine, they're saying the evaporator needs replaced. They're ordering the part and hope to have it done on Monday or Tuesday.
