New garage buddy for my Mustang
« on: April 08, 2015, 06:32:21 pm »
Ok, so it's not a Mustang, but it is a Ford. Those who know me, will know it's very similar to my FPV that was stolen a few years back. This is, as the plates allude, an 06 GT-P. Going to Intune Motorsports tomorrow for shaker, CAI and Herod exhaust tomorrow  :pepper:

Hi Moe, only the 290 but tuned to 330kw at the rear wheels. Not after a racer, but want it to look and sound like I want it too! Rims are 20". 245 30 20 on the front, 275 30 20 on the rear.

Had the new shaker and some bling done to the engine bay today. Love the view from the drivers seat!

Work hard, be financially responsible and the world can be your oyster.

(Or, as in my case, have a really nice bank manager  :grin:)

Dave,

I got it all wrong for the other car! I pictured you and big Al cruising down the F3, to a club meeting in this.  :bolt:

Took the GT-P to her first show today. Organised by the Brock Performance  Commodore Car Club it was nice to see the blue win an award in a see of Holden's. Mitch was pretty stoked!

Yes, a dilemma I struggle with. Love the Stang but handles like a boat, whereas the FPV sticks like glue!
