I have absolutley zero desire to burn off my back tyres. Let alone buy a red convertible to recreate that photo wink
Firstly, cracking car, I have a Roush Stage 3 vert and love it.

To be fair they look like the original tyres from 2007 so you will have to get new ones soon anyway, mine is a 2006 and the tires started cracking, you will have to change them if you mangage to take the car to Sweeden as you normally cannot have tyres older than 5 years in most countries in Europe, so you may as well burn them up and have some fun - thats what the car is built for! You will notice an unbelievable difference in handling when you get rid of the BFG's they are awful in the wet and cold, I went for Bridgestone Potenza's expensive but definitely worth it!

Like the White/blue !

I have noticed a slight tendency for the anti-spin to kick in ! wink
Haven't tried it 'off' yet.

Lovely looking car there.... not knocking you...just curious, I would really like to know....
I am a big V8 fan, LOVE the sound of them. I am not buying my Mustang until next year but I will definately be getting a V8, to me Mustang IS V8. My question is, why did you choose to buy V6?...Again, not knocking at all, I'm really curious to know why people buy V6's when I feel V8's are the essence of a Mustang and that if you like Mustangs, you like V8's

Thank you...............

If I had a more secure job when I bought it and somewhere better to keep it, I'd have a V8. It's due to limited budget and wanting one that age. The V8 costing an average of £3.5 K more, year for year.

Oh right.... I can't see the V8 costing that much more each year. Maybe more to buy yes...By the time next Feb comes for me, I should be able to get an '05 V8 for 10 - 12k

I understand your reasoning though I guess.
