    Should have done it 50,000 miles ago. It feels like a new car. Really tempted to do the M50 manifold that I have laying around as well as a set of raceland euro supersprint reps and a custom midpipe to get some more power... Gotta pay for all these parts first and then see about that.
    Excellent!

      Nice, congrats! Glad to hear it's running again, and better.

              False. It outhandles an M3 and is cheaper. I think it's WIN.

                Still gross and it only took them how long to develop a solid rear axle that can turn instead of going with something better?

                  How long did it take Porsche to develop a car that won't spin in a turn?

                  Irrelevant. It's an amazing car, and I'm betting depreciation is going to be heavily in my favor in 5 years.

                    Probably not on the Boss but the standard 5.0 will be dirt cheap.

                      True, but as long as it doesn't appreciate in value I should be ok. Depending on how many years they make it, I might be able to snag a couple year old one with a warranty even.

                        No one makes this car anymore. The government won't allow them, normal people won't buy them. So it's up to us: the freaks, the weirdos, the informed. To buy them, to appreciate them, and most importantly, to drive them.

                            I like mustangs. They have done some very nice engineering to the new ones. I like to forget about the 05-10 models though.

                                You mean they've actually done that?
