For California it is a lot worse to ensure your second hand car purchase passes smog, especially a tuned car with no idea if it is Carb EO licensed Tune.
Shelby cut corners more this time, it looks more like parts-bin car where you can buy the body parts at the Shelby store. the earlier one such as the 18+ version did have a fully custom front fascia where you could not buy it other than the hood unless you converted. It just has a lower...
Luckily I never had to use my spare in my Focus for 10 years on the road aside from a slow leak on side wall which the tire shop put it on anyway to wait for the replacement matching tire, even car still could still have been used.
My Fusion never had a need in 7 years, but still was a piece of...
Any common issues with first year GT500 vs the last years made? But as I am looking at the cheaper ones, I do see branded titles / salvage etc. It is often a issue with high HP cars that are being sold again very shortly after being bought.
So when we see more GTD on the street, the GT500 value will drop? I always liked the Heritage one, but hovering around 100K for used is out of my budget for a base one.
10K more for similar features in just 5 years is big jump compared to earlier generations. And they added a gas guzzler tax for those who get an A10 in 24
I paid around 44K with x-plan for my special ordered 2019 California Special with 401a package (full digital dash) A10 from a dealer in Glendale, CA. No ADM or add-ons back in late 2018
No desire to sell mine because it is paid off and it is my daily driver so I just focus on factory...
Still at 3:15 and I got around same mpg in same perfect condition (flat highway no traffic at speed limit of 65) with stock tire size. Otherwise regular condition on highway with some traffic or at higher speed limits such as 70 and 75, I get about 26-27 mpg. I have had miles to empty at...
It was time for new tires so I replaced my 255/40/19 to 275/40/19 Square with Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate Performance All Season. Also recently did an 4 wheel alignment to just double check and all good. took the car for drive on a flat highway to test the MPH difference if I really need later...
I do like the Shelby name on GT350 and GT500 and it does fit for the top performing factory cars that Ford offers for Mustang, and a Mach 1 is special name to me and I would prefer a Mach 1 as a Mach 1.
I do however have some Shelby parts on my car, such as a Super Snake bumper, GT-H Exhaust...
Been getting the message below on owner site lately, when checking my vin and wont allow me any way to download to usb or upload from usb anymore. latest sync I had uploaded successfully a while back was 3.4 Build 23188_PRODUCT as Ford site did confirm but that was a few months ago.

I have had 2 ingot silver cars and luckily the primer used from factory on both cars was a light grey color which did not contrast with the ingot silver vs white cars with black primers or those with dark colors and a white primer. I have touch up paint stick applicator box that I found cheap...
Just did a PPF project for my car, with a 10 year PPF warranty. Also included in the install was decontamination and paint correction. It was the OCD part of the car (the Decklid panel) they corrected as much as 90% of all the micro swirls and scratches on the decklid then had a template...
I know but I was referring more to to an optic of a more efficient engine (advanced and refined) more for the tech and capability. But now getting a gas guzzler added to the next gen base. Wish the electric hybrid AWD concept was offered. I would go for a hybrid AWD V8 Mustang.
If I had...
Was surprised to see Gas Guzzler Tax on the S650 GT looking at the window sticker, I felt the engine updates looked backwards to me, 20HP more and worse MPG. I have the Ford Calibration Kit which may add a little more HP from 460 and I still get 30+ MPG on the freeway with the A10.
I saw the GT 2024 in person this week with the brembo package, was interesting that it had 255/40/19 square set up like a regular S550 GT even with the rear brembo caliper / separate parking brake caliper in rear.
its offset and look was very much like a Stock S550 GT, tucked in both front...
