Its killing me.. I have 50K saved up from years of busting ass... but its all in my wifes account since we were going to buy a house... but she wont let me get the new mustang.. now we have a baby.. AHHHHHHH!!!!!!! I could go down and get one tonight... shiiiit!

tough spot, man.

My wife is due with our first child in November. I have until then to get a supercharger for my '10.

I agreed to fund it by selling off some of my gun collection instead of dipping into "the kitty." So far I'm at the $5.5k mark. My goal is $7k.

If your car is what you list in your sig, why in the hell do you want one?

And btw, THIS is why i will not ever get married.

She has YOUR money, in HER account, and SHE is hanging on to it to buy HER a house. Yea, that's just fucked up. I bet you don't even get a cool garage out of the deal. I say hire a hitman, kill her, and go get yourself a new mustang.

I'm getting ready to short sale the house. Since it was under my name only I was putting the money in her account so she can get another under her name. Well just as my luck run, my CO decided to lay me off and she is out for a few months w/o pay. So right now Obama is covering me. haha.. Obama will buy me a 5.0!!

We are having our own off-road X-pipe being made. Eliminating the cats on these 5.0's is good for 15-20 rwhp.

So i just got back from test driving a red 2011 5.0 and i must say, it is the most smoothest shifting car ive ever driven in my life! Ordered one right as i got in. Kona Blue 5.0 baseline gt, 6 spd manual.

 

[Jarrod@latemodelresto]

Price?, if you dont mind me asking?

 

[RedfireGT]

$30,450/$417 a month. $27 more then i pay a month now. not bad i dont think

 

[Jarrod@latemodelresto]

nice, enjoy it!

 

[RedfireGT]

o i am! i wonder how long itll take to come in.

i am thinking of maybe a supercharger first. i dont know.

would it be possible for 600hp with supercharger, full exhaust, intake and tune?

I honestly think the only blowers that'll be worth a damn on these cars with the stock c/r of 11.0:1 will be a RoushCharger M90 or a Saleen Supercharger with minimal boost. We are talking like 5 maybe 6psi TOPS!!!

agreed.. and at that point you start to wonder if just going NA is good enough. With tunes and parts maybe you can squeeze out another 50-100hp(without cams). Save money and not blow a rod.

I just priced an 5.0 for myself.. 42K.. hahah

 

[mikeysgt]

thats a damn good price! perfect combo too! i saw a kona blue today at the dealer but it was a 2010 not the 2011. still haven't got any in yet i guess. im dying to test drive one at least knowing i can't buy one haha

 

[CraigNnem]

Don't test drive it, you will only make matters worse.

 

[mikeysgt]

knowing there's no way in hell i can afford it now with my house about to close i'll take my chances haha

 

[CraigNnem]

You Have Been Warned

im taking it that the 5.0's cant take as much boost at the 4.6's

 

[lostsoul]

with that CP, dynamic or static and rods.. dont look like it.. but I really want to see what tuning alone will bring. lots of guesses there
