    Spare tire that will fit in tire well of '07 Shelby GT500

    Have any of you '07-'07 GT500 owners found a rim and tire combo that will fit down in the tire well in case of emergences? One that has the correct back spacing and not lower the car too much, so it is drivable for a short distance.

    Original supercharger...help!

    The boost gage in in the dash of my 2007 GT500 stopped working on a recent trip back home. The car runs fine but I no longer hear the supercharger whine when I get on it. Thoughts?

    This is the ugliest ford ever

    I don't like it but I understand that the first run of the Mach E's are sold out. I think a better name for it would have been Ford Maverick E since it is a four door small SUV.

    All Electric Mach-E SUV is Officially in the "Mustang Family"

    Beside my GT500 I also own a 1970 Mach 1 and when I saw that it was named Mustang and Mach-E my blood pressure went up 1000%. A 4 door to boot ! That being said, I recently read that deposits have been put down on all of the first run of Mach-E's. Wow!

    GT500 ?

    I agree with Robert M completely. If you chose to buy a GT500 just because of a cheaper price you will regret it. Choice of color that you want is very important. Remember that you will look at that color for as long as you have that car. Try to get the color you really want.

    All Electric Mach-E SUV is Officially in the "Mustang Family"

    I also own a 1970 Mach 1 and when I saw the new electric SUV is called a Mach-E yet alone Mustang my day was ruined. Come on Ford, really! Oh I almost forgot a 4 door Mustang, wow. What's next a Boss-E ? That being said it will probably sell well but should have been named something else.
