Well, I have to say - 4 1/2 years into it, and I'm still not bored with my '08 Mustang GT. I would love to have the new 5.0 motor and newer interior, but I think these looked best before they updated the body in '10.
Considering their weight, these cars are known to handle well right out of the box. I've lowered mine - 1-1/4'' front, 1-3/4'' rear - with shorter, stiffer springs, and also replaced the rear lower control arms with tubular ones. C&L cold air intake, FRPP 3.73 gears, FRPP "Stinger" mufflers (actually Borla), SCT X3 custom tuned by Bama...
Used to have this gear haulin rod. '73 Ford Ranchero
And this was my '67 Mustang GTA.
The under-hood simplicity couldn't be beat!
Dream car??? I guess it will always be a Shelby Mustang of some sort. Preferably a '67 GT350.
