| I was at the Mich intl auto show and saw a 07 Mustang GT with the $200 optional wheels I purchased on my 06 GT only they looked "decontented" They were not as bright or good looking as mine and they looked unpainted on the sides and background and no clearcoat spray on them). I wonder why they would do this on what was their showcase upgraded wheels, Maybe it was just a fluke. | |

For those who thought I was just upset about being "passed by a GT" or those who just didn't believe the water leak problem. My car has been Lemoned by the BBB. Ford has completed the buy back worksheet and issued the dealer the package for vehicle replacement. For those that do have this problem, make sure you get as much paperwork as you can supporting the damage claim. Just don't waste your time with Ford they will NOT help you. Contact the BBB it took 6 mons 9 days, but I did eventually win.

Just took Mustang survey, sent to me by email by Ford. List of things I would want to see, in no particular order: 1. Locking gas tank lid that opens from the inside. 2. Aux input on the stereo 3. Satellite radio 4. Perfomance options offered by Ford: a) cold intake b) supercharger c) perfomance exhaust d) perfomance tires e) better brakes Would be willing to pay as much as $10,000 more for performance features. Don't care a whit for cosmetic adornments, like hood scoops or stripes. 5) Nicer wheels (like the $1400 optional aluminum wheels on the Vette Z06 -- no chrome paleez!) 6) More colors to choose from (better paint quality) 7) But the most important improvement, by far: independent rear suspension!! They asked some detailed questions about which engine options I would prefer and be willing to pay an extra grand for. Seems like they're thinking of offering a 370 HP twin turbo V6 that gets better mileage than the 4.6 liter V-8. Yum yum.

They have all your requests for sale and all carry a full warranty. 5. See #4 above. 6. Ford has killed off at least 2 colors and added 2 or more each year of the new Mustang's existence. That's not enough for ya? 7. Keep dreaming. But don't be surprised if an SE Mustang has an IRS shortly after the IRS equipped Camaro and Challenger arrive. I'm pretty sure the Duratec35 has already been announced for the Mustang in '09 so a twin turbo V6, which the 35 is built for, is not out of the question IMO.

Replying to: baggs32 (Mar 03, 2007 10:35 am) 5. Colors offered are standard. Would like the option to customize colors -- remember the metallic sky blue of the '57-8 Eldorado? Paint quality is below average (pits, silver color is dull). 7. They must be thinking of offering independent suspension at extra cost, because they asked if I was willing to pay extra for it if available. The solid rear axle is the single worst mechanical design flaw of the car, imo. Round-spoked 18" wheels suck, look like wagon wheels. Don't match the square lines of the car at all, imo. Would like to see some tasteful wheels, e.g., like those on the GT500 or C6Z06 Vette. They also asked if I would mind if the new engine was built by a foreign company (they gave a list: Mazda, Toyota, etc.). Hell yes, I'd mind! Car is already being built on a Mazda line. If it has a Mazda engine, why even call it a "Ford"?

Replying to: pony_pirate (Mar 03, 2007 1:07 pm) Inside would like the aluminum pedals like the GTO comes with. How about a 160 speedo option? Last but not least a cloaking device to hide from our dedicated law enforcement comunity............
