coolskillrex remix posted:I saw the 2013 5.0 in person and the tail lights are.. pretty nice. What they are is one big piece of smoked bubble plastic over intricate LEDs. When the brake lights are off it looks cheaper than i expected though. This was an all black 5.0 and the rest of it looks loving sweet though. I like the little slats in the hood, and the hood seems to sweep down a lot more and make the front of the car look a bit more sleek. The headlights look a lot better in person than i expected. I sort of miss the front fascia of the california special/laguna seca, but the front bumper is much better than the stock one on 5.0s of 2012. The side trim pieces being painted glossy black didnt look too bad and the car didnt look that bloated. Yes but when can I buy it? When can I give them all of my dollars?

I've settled on a 2013 grabber blue GT. They announced the new Boss 302 is gonna be another $2000 more than the 2012, plus it will be marked up, plus California taxes mean I'll be priced outta that. The money I save will probably go towards track tires and shiny things that make the car create really loud fart noises and such.

coolskillrex remix posted:Can someone explain to me why auto manufacturers are putting such lovely screens into their cars. Heres what a $500 new ipad looks like in a ford... There's vehicle code issues as well. In California you can't have a monitor unless its just navigation/vehicle info/external camera view. No point putting an amazing screen in since you're not going to use it for anything but that.

Looking at the options on the configurator, I think that's a fully loaded premium GT. The standard GT doesn't get leather or a racing stripe.

I'm pretty much ready to pick up a 2013 Mustang, but I wonder if I should wait a few months when we get 9 dollar gas and the ensuing apocalypse. Probably get a good incentive in there.

Got quoted $34,994 on a premium GT with track pack. Is there something scummy to look out for? Because another dealer had a base GT with brembo and recaro for 35,580. Do I go in and drop off a $500 deposit and come out with a guarantee at that price? They have to order it, I think a Grabber blue with track pack and nothing else would sit on a lot for a while.

AWWNAW posted:Well I've been doing a bit of searching for new (and used) 2011-13 Mustang GT w/manual and I'm just not seeing many available. Are they hard to keep on the lot or just not very common? Or do Ford dealerships have lovely online inventory listings? You shouldn't have a problem finding 2012's. Every dealer around me only had a handful of 2013's so I had to get mine custom ordered and wait 8 weeks for it to arrive.

Yeah... ok, it gets IRS now... but it can't put that to good use without flappy paddle shifters and a DSG.

Turbocharged window washer fluid No wait, my second guess is coolant. On another note... anyone have a Hurst shifter or similar? http://www.americanmuscle.com/hurst-plus2shifter-1112.html Says it gets rid of the stock reverse lockout, so what is shifting into first like? You just don't lean the stick all the way to the left and find the gate? Longpig Bard fucked around with this message at 20:14 on Jun 23, 2012 |

Those Mustang numbers seem legit. My GT gets around 14 MPG, but gently caress Honda's bloated numbers. My 08 Accord was definitely a good few MPG below the advertised 21. I mostly do city driving. I've estimated I will only pay a couple hundred dollars more in gas per year, not including track days and "stuff".

Rabble posted:Oh yeah, the cupholders are definitely made for the slush box drivers but that's going to be a V8 problem too. Gotta agree with the interior quality on the premium package though, everything is well thought out and feel great in the hand. My favorite feature of the car has to be the built in wide angle mirrors in the side view assembly, that should be standard safety equipment on all cars IMO. They got rid of the skip shift

AWWNAW posted:Have a '13 GT with manual, and getting a pretty loud clunk and resistance in the shifter when going from first to second and second to third. Was going to get an 11 or 12 model but I heard there were problems with the trans that should've been addressed in the newer models. Should I wait until my first oil change to bitch at the dealer or what? I don't want to have to leave my brand new car with them for a week. I think that's normal, depending on what you call "pretty loud". Also, shifting technique plays a part. I noticed if I hold the stick with a pistol grip going from 2nd to 3rd, I'll get some chatter in the linkage... but if I just push it with the pads of my palms, it pops right into third.
