you still have this?

Hey, are you still in Florida and do you still have these wheels & tires available?

I think that car looks much better with the stripes! As long as you could remove them, it won't matter. As a stripe delete GT500 owner myself, I have often wondered about adding stripes to my car. But, I haven't and probably won't.

how many miles on the port?

At 36k miles, I am starting to feel a minimal bit of "rotor warp" sometimes when coming to a stop. Should I have the rotors turned at the Ford dealer or should I just figure its almost time for new rotors? And if so what kind?

Not wanting to spend all the $$ needed for a TVS and not wanting to be the fastest quarter mile or highest horsepower guy, I have been considering having my stock (but pullied) Eaton ported. Stiegemeier came to mind from all the 03-04 Cobra blowers ported by them, but who else would you all...

I'm cleaning the MAF sensor in my 2011 GT500 right now. I am using the CRC MAF cleaner spray. I already sprayed the top and bottom of the sensor 10-20 times per the can instructions. Do I also spray inside the hole where the air goes into the sensor that would face the air filter, also?

How much of a roll does plug gap play into performance on our cars? In the old days, gap was important to performance. Now, with fuel injection, computers and boost how important is it? I recently removed the plugs in favor of some Ford/Motorcraft and found that the plugs were only gapped at...

Hello. I am getting ready to change out the spark plugs in my 2011 GT500. This is MY first attempt at this job in my Shelby. I've done it plenty of times in the old 86 GT 5.0. I'm just wondering what would be the best type/brand & if I can get some tips or suggestions to make the job easier...

Here are a couple pics of my "new" to me 2011 Kona Blue GT500 SVTPP. I was trying to figure out what mods (if any) were done to the car. Turns out it already has a C&R H/E with dual fans and larger tank. But, can anyone tell if any other mods (like pully) have been done before I go spend...

After owning my completely stock 2011 Kona Blue SVTPP GT500 and putting on about 300 miles, it really is an amazing car! :banana: BUT, after driving for several miles at a time here in Florida, I was noticing some reduced power output (I kinda thought it was in my head). After reading on this...

I was just wondering why I haven't seen a Kona Blue 11 or 12 GT500 with the SVTPP and the narrow white (or other color, except red) stripes? Was that not even an option with that color/pkg?

I finally got my 2011 Kona Blue GT500 SVTPP coupe delivered Saturday night @ 10:30pm. Cleaned and drove that baby all day Sunday. I took it to Ford on Monday, just to have them check it over and do an oil change (car has 34kmiles), just so I have a baseline and know that under and around the...

What is the best stuff to put on the plastic trim (to bring back the black) on our GT500's? I'm talking about pieces like the rear lower plastic panel, the heat extractor vent on the hood, front plastic valence etc.

With my new 2011 SVTPP, I plan on doing the basic pully, intake and tune asap. But, I was wondering...how good is the stock exhaust? I kinda like the sound of it. I don't want a loud system. Would it be better to do an axleback? Are there any gains to be had with an axleback? What about...

In my quest to get boosted, I have been considering several options. The 2003-2004 Cobras, Supercharging my current Marauder, supercharging my old 86 Fox 5.0 vert or just buying a GT500 (vert or coupe discussed in another thread). I've decided to keep the Marauder and 86 Fox 5.0 vert and get...

Dumb question, but, does the M122 Eaton on an 11 or 12 GT500 whine like the M112 on the Terminator? Just wondering since I might be pulling the trigger on a 11 GT500 SVTPP instead of an 2003 Cobra (ported and pullied) anniversary 2003 Cobra (500ish to rear wheels). FWIW, I am addicted to the...

I've narrowed my search down to a 2011 or 2012 GT500. But, by now, most of the cars factory warranties have expired, except for some of the Ford powertrain warranty. Do most of you GT500 guys buy extended warranties? I am seriously considering getting one for my new ride.

Just wondering what (if any) ideas ya'll might have as far as futiure evaluations go to the 10-14 GT500's when comparing them to the introduction of the new 2017 GT500? Are the older 500's going to get hammered or would one expect normal depreciation to happen?

Are there certain companies or reputable backyard (shadetree) mechanics out there that could do a terminator swap on a foxbody? It seems like a really cool swap to get the best of both worlds. But, I would not be able to pull off the whole swap by myself. I found a shop that would do a Coyote...

Can anyone tell me what their thoughts are on having the SVTPP on their GT500 (11 & 12 model yearS) vs NOT having it? It seems like the 3.73 gearing would be a nice option (as well as the other stuff). It was an expensive option when the cars were new.

Can you tell from this pic if this motor has been pullied? It's from a 2012 GT500.

Hey, I was wondering if there is any real difference between buying a GT500 coupe or convertible. I have heard that the convertibles are a "harder" sell than the coupes. Does that make sense? The reason resale is important is that this would be the most expensive used car I have ever...

I am looking to buy a supercharged car. Preferably a convertible. I been considering a GT500, but the pricing seems pretty steady in the upper 30's and low 40's for a 2012. Without putting a ton down, that makes for a pretty steep payment BUT, this would be my first choice. However, I also...

Hey! I am looking to buy a 2003-2004 Cobra convertible. I have found a couple nice ones. Especially a red 03 10th anniversary one. However, it has 85k miles and is topped with a whipple and a bunch of other mods. They're talking 600+ hp to tires. How do these motors handle 19lbs of boost...
