    Bought a new stable mate for my GT.

    nice to see FGT owners really getting into the MP4s. the mclaren is really a great car. fast and very usable. congrats. i'm fortunate to be on the same boat. black GT: we have similar tastes in cars. i also have an '03 Murcielago (black), black FGT and orange MP4. enjoy your cars in good...

    FGT v. MP4

    both are my cars. i was driving the FGT, shifting at redline. FGT has accufab TB, pulley and tune from Torrie running 93map. MP4 is totally stock without the factory power update. i was totally surprised by the result...

    Lambo Aventador---damn

    i just sat in an aventador today. everything is fantastic. but that dash i have some issues. i thought my murcie's dash was long already but this one is like a runway. the instrument binnacle sits up so high (like early diablos) that the space for outward vision is very limited. for a short...

    What would you buy if you have multiple GTs?

    i have an '03 Murcie coupe. all i can say is the car is fantastic. not as fast as the current supercars, but for style and reliability, i can vouch for it. had it since brandnew and now with over 10K miles. never had any problems. just oil change and new rotors. the car will put a smile on...

    What would you buy if you have multiple GTs?

    i just got an SLS. i've driven the 599 and i think the MB is the better and more fun car IMO. you should try it. i also considered the SLR. although the car may sound cheap now compared to its MSRP, the parts and service cost an arm and a leg, just like a Carrera GT. once again, for...

    What would you buy if you have multiple GTs?

    mclaren MP4. a supercar that can be a daily drive. of course you hear so much good stuff about the 458 as well but as nice as it drives, i believe it's true performance numbers of customer cars are not what is claimed by the factory or the magazine tests, so that's quite bummer for me.

    Lambo Aventador---damn

    i'm a short guy 5'6" so can't say for myself. but in the lambo forums there are owners that are 6'4" and they fit well inside the car. my dad is short but stout 205lbs and fits in the car comfortably.

    Lambo Aventador---damn

    IIRC the warranty on the car was 2 years only so in that 2 year span i only got the car serviced once at the dealer to make sure everything was all right and for them to perform all the required "campaigns" on the car. i believe i paid $1600. the car has been here in the philippines for almost...

    Lambo Aventador---damn

    i've had a murcielago since 2003 and i can tell you that the car has been very very reliable. i have over 10K miles since new. if you can do your own service or bring the car to a trusted independent workshop, it shouldn't cost you too much. 12L of fully synthetic oil and an oil filter. it's...

    Fan Switch Problem?

    my car is fixed. had to replace the smaller of the 2 fan control module found under the dash. i got very lucky i guess. when i called the Ford dealer in the Bay Area, the parts guy said there was only 1pc. left of that part in the entire US and he had to get it from a dealer in SoCal...

    Fan Switch Problem?

    my tech has located the controller under the dash. now the question is whether it is that controller that's broken or the switch board on the center console. he thinks it's the controller under the dash because all the buttons on the center console (vent switch, ac,recirc and temp) all work...

    Fan Switch Problem?

    i have this exact problem now and simply pulled the blower motor fuse up front to stop the fan from running. would you know what the part is called? the problem is the car is here in the philippines hence i'll have my mechanic try to figure it out. and it will be easier if i can tell him what...
