    Just sold my 07 GT500

    Well it was a fun car, but daily driving it 60 miles a day was taking a large toll on my wallet in fuel cost (at least $600 a month). So, I sold the car yesterday and purchased a CPO 11 BMW 335d. I've had the 335i, so this time I thought I'd try the oil burner. Its great on fuel mileage and...

    Anyone have an antenna in the center console?

    I pulled my center console today to install a new e-brake handle and cable. I found this antenna cable made by "Antennas America Inc" attached to the inside of the console. It wasn't hooked up to anything. Just wondering does anyone else have this on their car or maybe it was the origninal owner...

    Any experience with Snow MAF Meth Kit?

    I had Meth on my 335i as well as many other owners and it was like the magic pill for those cars, sort of like nitrous for a LS1. I've been considering adding meth injection to the Shelby and wondered if anyone else here is using it. I found this kit from Snow that uses MAF voltage as a...

    Did a little work on the car last week.

    So I posted a while ago that the stock 07 clutch bit the dust at 22K. I ended up taking everyone's advice and bought the McLeod RXT for the replacement. I drove the car down to my Dad's shop in Port Orange, FL and decided to change out the springs too. Installed: McLeod RXT McLeod Steel...

    2007-09 versus 2010+ Factory Clutch

    So my basically stock 2007 GT500 just started exhibiting signs of clutch slip. I've poured over all the article on the flywheel warping and causing synchro failure. I pulled the TSB up on AllData and did the test procedure to see if the synchros are bad and they're not. That being said my...

    Encounter with a C5

    I was driving home from work tonight down US 19/41 (S. Atlanta) toward I-75 when I heard a V6 Firebird with a whistling sound like a turbo besides me. I was trying to get the driver to come along side so I could ask him about his car when I see a set of low set headlights come ripping up behind...

    Question about build dates

    This might have been asked about on here before but I didn't find it. Is there a way to find the build date for my car? In the brief research I've done I believe it has a build date of June of 2006 making it one of the first Shelbys produced. Is there a build tag on the car somewhere? My 1990...

    Input needed

    I have a 95 teal escort as my daily driver to and from school and such. We sandblasted the wheels and painted them gunmetal grey. I was thinking about painting the front grill and the rear spoiler flat black like a Mach1. Then I was going to get two decals made up in the Mach1 lettering style...
