  1. Convertibles Photos Thread

    My LB 2018 GT at a recent Mustang Club picnic.
  2. I was not a big fan of the Black Appearance Package!

    I wasn't crazy about Lightning Blue at first. The first one I saw had the basic 18" wheels and didn't pop. I almost ordered Race Red until I saw LB with the Black Accent package. That color combo changes the whole look of the convertible. I took delivery on 4/30.
  3. LIGHTNING BLUE S550 MUSTANG Thread

    My '14 GT 'vert was black, and as beautiful as that car was, I vowed no more dark colors, especially black. When I was getting ready to order my '18 GT 'vert in early February, I avoided dark colors like Magnetic, Kona, and Royal Crimson. But I didn't even care for LB so I was planning on Race...
  4. How is an accident reported to CarFax?

    Unless you collect through your insurance company and they just happen to one of carriers that does report to Carfax regularly. A police report isn't required to file a claim.
  5. How is an accident reported to CarFax?

    I retired from auto insurance claims after 34 years in the biz. At one time most insurance companies had the personnel to report car accidents to Carfax. Generally speaking it was first party claims that were reported....i.e those customers who filed under their own collision coverage. Most...

    Bullitt in a convertible? Here's the proof.... Meet Bullitt, my 7 year old Sheltie rescue. I adopted him the day after I ordered my '18 rag top in the first week of February.
  7. Percentages of each stock color

    There sure seem to be a lot of Lightning Blue's on this forum. But maybe I'm just looking for them because that's what I have.
  8. Shift Knob Removal...Ever Broke Anything?

    Leverage is the key. I wrapped cardboard around the leather on my 2018 GT and removed it with a large Stilson pipe wrench.
  9. LIGHTNING BLUE S550 MUSTANG Thread

    I personally don't think that stripes suit the design of the S550, except of course a GT350 and whatever the GT500 ends up looking like. The S197 however, begged for stripes.
  10. New Mustang Vert Owner, help w part?

    I don't know if I'd call them tonneau covers....that usually refers to a cover (hard or soft) that goes over the bed of a truck, or one that covers the entire back seat of a convertible similar to some 60's Thunderbirds. Those are caps that hide the exposed convertible top mechanism when the...
  11. Ambient Lighting/Gauge Color can't be set

    Well duh, silly me. I didn't have my headlight switch set on automatic. Problem solved.
  12. Ambient Lighting/Gauge Color can't be set

    I have an '18 GT with the 400A package which includes My Color. When I try to set the colors, my display says it can't be done in the daytime. However, I've tried it at night and get the same message. Any ideas?
  13. Mustangs parking by Mustangs - Photos

    At the dealer a couple of weeks ago saying goodbye to my 2014 GT and welcoming a new 2018 GT.
  14. Anyone seen a comparison of the exhaust betweem the active and the non active.

    I'm assuming that 'normal' mode on the active exhaust is what a non AE equipped Mustang sounds like. If so, it's fairly throaty in it's own right. But unless you're planning to revamp the stock exhaust system, go for the active exhaust. Sport mode is worth it.
  15. Washing convertible top

    Prior to my recent 2018 'vert, my 2014 'vert saw a hose and soap just once a year in the spring, followed by clay prior to a paint correction with a DA, and the top never ever got soap. After the spring paint correction I used a rinse less wash and detail sprays on the sheet metal. In...
  16. GT Fastback or GT Convertible? Putting deposit down tomorrow... CANNOT DECIDE!

    My '18 GT ragtop is a dry weather toy, top up or down. But the way the weather has been since I got it on 4/30 it's been a wet weather garaged toy. Yup....Jersey weather sucks. A convertible is a roll of the dice here, but I wouldn't have a Mustang any other way.
  17. How do you make an opossum leave your engine bay?

    I spray straight ammonia into my garbage cans to keep bears and raccoons away and it does the job. Wonder if that'd work for your problem?

    Outstanding photos!!!
  19. How do you make an opossum leave your engine bay?

    Stick some Chevrolet emblems on the engine cover. He'll leave.
  20. Remain Stock?

    I'm not questioning your knowledge, just the ignorance of your statement that anyone who buys new is an idiot like you admit you were. We all have reasons for doing what we do. I'm well aware of depreciation as I'm sure everyone here is, and as I get closer to 70 I still want a new Mustang...
