Crossed over to the Dark side
 
Well i am going to pick up a 99-04 Mustang GT in the next week or so. It will be my spring/summer/fall DD. So both my 7s will be on the back burner and be my "toys"

im soo sorry to hear that.. my prayers to your family... loljk

Grip 03-19-10 07:10 PM

cool, a car with balls.

Spirit-RE 03-19-10 10:05 PM

bah, torque is over rated lol.

Sweet. A solid axel. Make sure you don't take any turns. Just kidding :) . How's the mileage on the GT? 260hp isn't bad, but kinda low for a 4.6 L engine, so hopefully there's some fuel savings?

Haven't you heard? All the cool kids drive fox body Mustangs.

Grip 03-19-10 11:21 PM

It's true. There is a 93 notchback, 302 turbo, in my garage next to the FC. 490whp, 510tq makes the FC look like a single cam civic.

You'll last about 1 year, then sell the stang' and buy another rotor!

wow another mustang... i dont think ive seen one in the last 10 minutes...wait start the clock again

Want a fun game? Count all the different "special edition" mustangs :rofl: There's got to be at least 50, which kinda takes the "special" part out of it....but maybe thats just me?

Nothing wrong with a Stang, big potential when done right & besides he said he still has his 7's. A good friend of mine has a 600+ awhp Eclispe & a 09 GT Stang with bolt ons for a DD. Have fun with the V8 JFpimp.

jake1191 03-20-10 01:52 PM

it gets like 17/24 for mileage from the factory and then of course a CAI, exhaust, and a flash tune can help that a little but still not that big a deal to me since when i drove the 7s it drank the gas because i was always on it. Plus that back seat has some appeal when it comes to taking girls out

I bought it because i need something to drive around on a daily basis because when i did that with both my sevens even with great maintenance done to them they only lasted 6 months. Not so much a bad thing and for the price paid i got my use out of them. Now just want to rebuild them and keep the miles off them.


Plus the only two sports cars i would drive would be a V8 stang or a rotary 7.

Better get used to taking a turn like a human being!

JCurry 03-26-10 01:50 PM

i would rather have a ws6 then a moostang

jake1191 03-26-10 03:21 PM

i used to have an 82 trans am then i picked up a ws6 and i hate the chevys all around.......


I picked up the car last monday and its pretty sweet. Still miss drivin my 7s but this will do for now.


It came with a bunch of parts i didnt plan on it having. Subframe connectors, camber castor plate, short throw shifter, line lock(unwired), and the mufflers removed(sounds amazing for a v8). It makes for a nice sleeper because of the color as well.


Im still not going to become one of those "hey i have a v8 and i can rape any car alive that isnt a v8" kinda people. Most cars have potential.....Well Except hondas.

RIrotorhead103 03-26-10 03:21 PM

now u can be like every other teenage girl with their first car lol j/k gl with the stang :)

jake1191 03-26-10 03:25 PM

thanks
