Congrats ACRJOE :cheers Try to remember to leave as much room as possible (especially in your garage) for entry and exit. I believe it was Vince (White Petunia) who coined the phrase "GT crawl". That's what you will be doing if you can't swing the door the 90 degrees it's capable of. Other then...

Good reading Bart, but it doesn't change my opinion! People still buy Ford's, Chevy's and Chrysler's and we all know a few #$%^@^%&% things have been said about them, right? It's part of the business world to on occasion piss somebody off or even worse do them an injustice, but I don't believe...

Thanks Bart for the feedback! Look, we're all car guys and business is business. Unfortunately we've all had to deal with B.S. from time to time and I can appreciate someone looking out for a fellow member of this forum, I just wish it would be done more discreetly as to not affect someone's...

Hello everyone, A friend of mine is looking for an 05/06 (preferably an 06) blue/white stripes car and doesn't care about the mac or the painted calipers. Also east coast would help for he lives in CT but willing to listen. Thanks for any help offered...Dan

Matt, with all due respect you should not cut up a guy on this forum like that based on some hearsay from another forum. I'd be willing to bet Hennessey has had issues on their installs but I'd also be willing to bet so has Dallas Mustang! Heck, did you know that Hennessey owns the standing mile...

nota4re, Your summary ranks an eyelash of a close second. Seemingly everyone on this site has owned and owns some of the finest cars ever made but the GT for some reason has this uncanny knack of standing alone! I'm sure we can all trade stories forever regarding the reaction and interest in...

Byeenzo, call John Hennessey in Houston! Good guy and reliable company. He did a blue '05 GT and that car sounds and performs fantastic. Here's the site: www.hennesseyperformance.com Good luck, BD40

DUROC, I see you are in NY! Did you buy the '05 that was at Pleasantville Ford? I'm just over the line in CT, where are you? Dan

What's funny Doc is that with so many cars nowadays having alpha numeric designations that Ford did not seize the opportunity to name this car the GT44. I'm a purist also which is why for instance I would not do Lambo doors on this car but let's face it, the car is 4" taller and 18" longer and...

Doc, I hear your meaning in your text and it is well defined! Question for you. Would you take your wife out for a nice dinner let's say at a place like Morton's (famous steak house from started in Chicago, now in different parts of the country including 10 minutes from me in Stamford,CT and...

Doc, Even worse is when you have to explain to a friend or acquaintance that you have a GT, no not a Mustang GT a Ford GT. Then you get that perplexed look followed by "what do you mean, a Mustang is a Ford"! Hopefully you don't have a sore throat that day because you'll be explaining for a...

Doc, when I called to make my 1st oil change appt. I told the service writer I had a GT and asked him how much it would cost. He told me $33, I said I'll be right over!!! :biggrin

Guys let's face it, the American Auto industry will never be what it once was, a powerful well respected (and rightfully so) monopoly. Somewhere along the line something happened to the way these companies are managed and like any business no matter how big or small if you are not providing a...

Congrats :cheers and welcome aboard! Best color combo in my book but of course I'm a little prejudice, I have the same except with the gray calipers. Good luck and drive it well....BD40

I agree Doc. I personally would rather keep away from that type of decal, I also think it cheapens the car. If the word Brembo were molded into the caliper that would be fine. Jusy my opinion...Dan

Grey on Tungsten, I like uniformity!!!

Kayvan, I'm sure they'll do this anyway, but wheel straps only!!! They will go through a spoke on each wheel and ratchet it down using the rim as the tie down point. They usually have padded straps bot you might want to place some soft towels between strap and wheel. I've moved cars for years...

The companies you've mentioned are very good at what they do. Horseless delivered my Viper Comp Coupe (3 inch ground clearance) and did a great job. Also don't forget Inter-city Lines out of Mass. They are very well respected in the industry and I've had great success with them also. Also don't...

It's official, I can't get out of my @%&*$ing car using the inside handle. Funny thing is when I get in my car in the garage when it's out of the sun it works fine. I take it for a short ride and it works okay. I go for a long ride and it just won't open. Tmcphail is right, it has to do with...

You mention a seal recall, I thought it was a crank related issue (not main seal) and also thought that some 05's had suspension arm issues related to stress fracturing! I'm not sure on either count but wanted to try to contribute some info albeit not 100% positive on either count. Worth looking...
