    Anyone know what a show room quality repaint really costs?

    My 2013 has been my daily driver in SFL for years and I bought it for a steal from someone who also daily drove it til he sold it to me. Car is perfect everywhere but my exterior paint. I have sings, a keying mark, and probably the deepest swirls. I gave the car a good paint correction and...

    Hi all, I’m coming up on 83,000 pretty hard miles on my shelby. It’s definitely feeling a lot looser and wallows more than when I started daily driving it around 40,000 or so. I’m still under factory warranty but am assuming getting Ford to cover the shocks and struts and springs would be hard...

    I have a 2013 Black GT500, I’m the second owner and the first owner is a friend. He drove it daily and so do I. He never detailed it as far as paint correction and I’ve done one round of clay and Orange and white pads with m105 and m205 (or whatever junkman recommends). My paint was pretty...

    Intercooler Charge Pump dead

    So I noticed my car had been a bit rough time to time, and today it would not boost over 5 psi. My FIL has the ford diagnostic computer today so he grabbed codes and we got p1229. ICP failure. I have warranty so I’ll likely do that but has anyone had this happen to their gt500?

    Anyone else daily driving?

    Just wondering how many of us are out here dailying Shelby’s? anyone run into some issues unique to using the car daily as opposed to a weekend toy? To this day I’m beyond impressed with the lack of issues I’ve had, driving rain or shine in south Florida’s murderously hot weather.

    Im currently sitting at 65,000 miles with my 2013 GT500. I do have ford ESP until 2023 and 124,000 miles so that leads me to wonder what will fail and if there’s a sort of average for certain components? •Rear end -I just had my rear end completely rebuilt by ford (pinion bearing fell apart)...

    I have poor luck with hoses. For whatever reason coolant hoses in all my cars have blown. Rigid, silicone, rubber, doesn’t matter they have all blown.
