All my cars are DD no mater what. The joy is in the driving, I am in Iowa and drive it every day except for snow days and may even buy snow tires for it and I own many vehicles.
Drove the snot out of my F430 and no amount of money can cover the joy of that car, it was worth every cent of...
A professional with a saw all took 3 minutes. There is no drone or change in cabin noise when driving normally but when you hit it it has a raspier sound that I love and the cracks and burbles when you let off are to die for if your into that kind of thing which I really love.....Steve
I had the resonators cut out and the clutch helper spring removed. The car sounds so freaking good you just can't help put want to drive it to hear it.
That spring f*cks up the clutch feel completely. Once removed it actually feels like a clutch without the artificial softness and vagueness...
Congratulations I am very excited for you. You are going to love her she is beautiful and they loaded her right. You are off to a great start and have a great and safe journey home.......Steve
I am paying $600 per year on mine, but I have been with State Farm for decades and insure anything and everything with them and I am 57 and have every discount applied :D.....Steve
This has been an interesting thread to start as the OP and followed as well a member here. As usual, threads take a life of their own with all kinds of responses and that is life on message boards.
I did have 20 seconds of fun right off the truck and of course that is not the break-in. My...
The tech pack seats are great and I understand everyone has different available resources but the gtpp is not half the car the gt350 is, but it still is a great car so no harm intended.....Steve
I have no regret and that after coming from a Hellcat and an 800hp 14 gt500. The gt350 is sublime in its design and balance and in the end I will take N/A over forced any day of the week.......Steve
Congratulations She is beautiful. I agree with "I just can't put it away", the car is that intoxicating.
I had a first model year E92 M3 Coupe and it was a great car, but I never really fell in love with it.
I should have put an exhaust system on it as the motor and car were sublime, but...
I would love to do that, but I live in BFE Iowa and finding an engine dyno would be difficult.
We still have the new engine, so if there is an issue with the original we will put that in.
Just would be another week of downtime, since the motor should prove to be fine rather quickly or not...
Ford has offered to reimburse me a months payment, so I am rather pleased and we are reinstalling the original motor after the new transmission arrives.
Poop happens, and I am very pleased and greatful to Ford for treating me as a highly valued customer.......Steve
As to a dollar amount, the GT350 is not an appliance to go from point A to point B as such, I am without a very special car that has nothing to do with utility but sheer enjoyment of driving. Any loaner car short of a GT350 or something similar would be of no value to me as I own many cars. I...
I spoke with Ford Customer Service today and they were very understanding of my situation and put me through to my regional rep to discuss doing something for me. I will hear back tomorrow and let you guys know. Playing it cool can go a long way.
In addition, I have owned 3 SVT...
If there is no damage to the engine, then I would prefer to keep the original and that is what they are going to do. We have the second motor just in case......Steve
I picked up my car on 12/22 and it died on 12/23 before lunch. I figured I would wait on the details before posting anything.
Just driving car normally as the weather is cold and I know that the tires do not like it, so getting off the highway on a downhill exit ramp. I depress the clutch and...
