Are we talking about colors that Ford has used since the beginning? Or S550 only? If we are talking about classics (ie not found on S550s): Poppy Red, Lava Red, and would have said dark highland green if it weren't for the reintroduction of the new Bullitt. As for S550 colors: Comp Orange and...

As in the green found on classics? Or the "gotta-have-it-green" found on the later s197s (please say classic...)

That's awesome! Great to hear that it's fixed bud! Did they tell you what the issue was/what they did to fix it? Edit: I had forgotten that you already said they were planning on giving you a new short block...:crazy:

Was a new one for me too. Obviously there was more to the explanation, but it made sense (just forgot some of the details). And you would think, but the service rep that I was dealing with at Perry Ford was also an S550 GT owner. But yes, will definitely be using them instead of my local one.

I just posted this on another GT tick thread (the one with the poll) but I definitely have an issue, and so I'm giving my $.02. Feel free to read or skip, just sharing what I have experienced in regards to this issue. ""So an update on my end: Before anything, if you are near Santa Barbara...

IMPORTANt EDIT AS OF 04/23/19: I am leaving the original text below that I posted a few months ago, just so that you have an idea of how ridiculous the whole situation is currently. As a pre-cursor to the paragraph below, Jim Vreeland Ford are just as much a bunch of lying charlatans as Perry...

So an update on my end: Before anything, if you are near Santa Barbara County, DO NOT GO TO PERRY FORD!!!! Don't waste your time there, as they definitely aren't worth it. Been getting the constant run-around from the sales aspect while purchasing a car, as well as subsequent service/support...

Another vote for Eleanor (from the remake) and McQueen's Bullitt, but for me that's a given for any Mustang lover. Aside from that, I would LOVE the Batmobile from the dark knight. I'm sure left-lane cruisers would finally get out of my way....(but probably still wouldn't). Christine was also a...

A 285 is technically the "perfect" size for a 10 inch wide rim. You could go to 295, but you lose some of the structural support provided by the rim to the tire. That said, some tires also run a little more narrow than others, despite their size (Nittos come to mind). Also, if you don't really...

solution: hoodlatches. My aerocatch latches got rid of any hood movement at high speeds (granted, had them installed on my CF hood, which was HORRIBLY scary to drive at high speeds without any aka only did it once) . Yes you have to cut in your hood, but would rather do that then having my hood...

My dealer swapped my intake manifold as a "fix" (which I knew was in no way going to do anything). Now they're refusing to take action, so I'm having to drive about an hour away to try another dealership. I love driving my car, but I can't help shake the feeling that my engine is a ticking time...

Thanks Mike. Perry Ford SB decided to give me yet another run-around, and I'm fed up with it. Now driving it to the next Ford dealership in Buellton to try my luck there... And just realized that you are ignition.photo from IG. Sorry to hear that you are having issues with your stang too. Aside...

That's quite the neat package! If I owned a 19 Bullitt, I would strongly consider it. I think the letter of authenticity is honestly what really sells it, otherwise it would be a shame to modify a signature car like the Bullitt.

Awesome. Thanks again for all of the info. Might just go ahead and do so just for peace of mind (and better drivability is always nice too, although i don't have too much of an issue shifting my MT82)

Thanks for the reply, I very much appreciate it! And good to know. I was actually planning on going with some lower gears once I installed the whipple, as I felt like 1st would be useless with my 3.73s and a power adder. I actually like having longer gears with FI (ie I'm already breaking every...

Not s550 related, but one of my buddies has one of the best "headlight mods" for an 03 termi I've ever seen :cwl:

Looks can be deceiving. The whole rear bumper has been redesigned and has different sizes, attachment points etc... for the 2018 when compared to the 15-17s. You would most likely have to purchase a 2018 bumper in order to get it to work. That said, if you are quite handy at custom mods, it may...

I'm personally a fan of stripes. Always wanted them on past stangs, but finally decided to do so on my s550. 3 in. cowl helps with the look a little too.... May eventually remove them if i choose to wrap the car a different color (but hard to find a color that I prefer over MM)

Good looking car! I personally am not a fan of "fake scoops", although I did install one on my first car (08 V6 Mustang) before I knew any better :facepalm: That said, I did like the looks of it, but I was also younger and thought that my 210hp was true muscle! (still a great first car imho!) On...
