Leaving a friend's house tonight and as I go to accelerate I see the traction control light blinking like crazy. I have never seen it on before. Anyway it blinks like crazy and the car couldn't put down any power. It felt like it wasn't in gear. I was able to pull over and let the car sit for...

Well I have to say I think a lot of you are overreacting and I don't mean that in a snarky internet sort of way. News articles like this feed off of negativity and anger. Also the mentions of Trump are laughable and further lead me to believe it's a case of overreacting and hysteria...

Yeah in my opinion tinted lights are not worth it. Sure they look sort of cool but they can also get you into trouble. Tinting the lights actually does reduce the light output . And if you're ever involved in an accidental at night insurance will possibly reject the claim due to the tinting of...

Wow that sounds truly terrible. What is piston slap?

10,500 miles! But once again I live in a city filled with potholes and painfully neglected roads

Thanks for the advice. I was worried about that. And yes I mean steering mode. Basically comfort is almost perfect tracking . Normal the car stats straight for a while with a very slight pull to the left after 30 seconds and sport is almost instantly pulling to the left.

Hi all 2016 base gt owner here. My car seems to track very nicely in normal mode and has a good alignment. It pretty much stays dead straight. However when I'm in sport mode it pulls really hard to the left. So much that I'm having a hard time enjoying sport mode. The reason this seems...

I live in the San Francisco Bay area so close calls are a daily norm it feels like. However couple weeks back on a very busy street I had a guy from the opposite lane try and make a left turn as soon as I was enterting the cross walk. It's the only time I've ever mashed my brake pedal. And Jesus...

Hahaha I love the blatant abuse of your rental. Ahhh that was a good laugh . When I rented an ecoboost I found a dirt parking lot to do donuts in. Good times.

I rev my engine first thing in the morning. Wake up start my car and slam that bitch against the rev limiter. You may ask why I do it? Same reason I growl at my dog, to show I'm the Dom. I'm pack lead. No car or dog or woman is gonna tell me how to do anything. If you car doesn't redline in...

I'm kind of at a loss for words. This thread seems so pointless it hurts. At one point he says the mustang is hands down the better car and statements like that are hard to read. We prefer the mustang sure but our preference doesn't make it hands down better . Can no one just be happy and...

I find your post interesting. I'm 24 and I bought my gt when I was 22. People my age and younger give me the dirtiest looks and make snarky comments all the time . One time while sitting at a light outside a high school I had one kid who made eye contact with me the entire time he was in the...

I feel like I'm a part of history here. If seen you lurk and post for years, honestly I always assumed you had an s550 of some sort! At any rate the car looks amazing. Lighting blue is stunning.

Okay listen buddy's. My mustang is slower than an old 90s GMC van. Let me explain. The other day I'm doing some back road driving and it's spirited. All of a sudden this van is on my ass, he over takes me on a double yellow on a curvy road. He was gone. Didn't see him again and I couldn't keep...

Normally I'm the guy on the forums who puts fun and passion over finances. However, just to be clear, that 9k is not profit. No matter how you look at it you lost 8k on your car. Now granted that's not bad after 3 years. But you in no way shape or form made money on your car. The only reason...

I keep hearing assetto Corsa being used, I will have to look into it. I would also say that video games have aided my driving. I played racing games as a kid, long before I ever had my mustang. One thing I learned is brake before the corner not in the corner. That's one that translates very...

Oh well of course. I will be in Montana for the next few weeks. Too bad they didn't put an s550 in fc5 but we all know Ubisoft is too cheap to pay for a license lol

Just wondering if any of you have driven an s550 in a video game that actually felt like your car. I drove on in Forza 5 the other night and it was terrible. The brakes were very weak and the under steer was was over dramatized. I wonder if they do this to fit the muscle car sterotype many...

I can safely say the base gt brakes are great and saved me before . Had a guy pull out in front of me and if it wasn't for the beefy brakes it would have been a collision. I'm not really sure fanboy either as my dream car is a Vette grand sport. But I have to say I've had my gt for about 2...

I'm really surprised the chemicals in all these products don't eat up the aluminum. Good information to have
