    Shelby's Horn Button Fix

    Got mine back Saturday and had it installed in ten minutes, looks great! I will warn you that the little plastic covers on the steering column are quite fragile, one had its clips broken so I had to rig a way for it to stay with some putty holding it in...

    All 7 GT colors: Own all?

    Still...my car still worth what I payed for it 4 years ago, not bad considering my other choice was a 911 Turbo that has lost 40% of its' value. And the 911 has faired much better than the Ferrari 360.

    My Ford GT parked next to my Nissan GT-R

    I too would probably have a GTR along with my GT, but I can't afford it. I do however drive a 370-Z Sport to work. It handles great, is comfortable, has good performance and cost half what a GTR cost. Of course it only goes 0-60 in 4.7 seconds...not 2.9...

    Platinum Diehard battery for the FGT

    I got my Diehard a couple of days ago. Since I didn't have a ratchet to fit the holder plate, I asked if they would put the battery in, but the head of the Automotive Dept refused saying they were afraid of screwing up the cars computer. She got a lot more cooperative though after I let her...

    Gauge Malfunction / Charger survey

    Maybe this has already been addressed, but is the problem happening only with the OEM Optima battery? Mine was doing the same thing as Cyclenirvana and Shelby advised me to immediately change to the Platinum Diehard, which I did today. The kid at Sears told me that the Optima didn't take a...
