Ford's quality has gotten MUCH better. I can vouch for that.

I still do not understand the concern over road noise. My Z is pretty quiet. Almost BMW quiet....

i agree, plus its an effing sports car for crying out loud...who cares...I dont want any of my sports car experience dumbed down too much by luxury...

EXACTLY!!!!!! But, that is probally why one of my favorite cars is the GT3. Just raw a raw sports car (but not too raw like the Exige S)... One of these days.....

Well gentlemen, I installed my Magnaflow X pipe and muffler delete today, holy shit, this car will wake the dead, i'll post sound clips tomorrow for everyones enjoyment.

yes please!

if its anywhere as loud as my boys straight side piped 6.0 GTO, then loud is a severe understatement

ford built this engine to scream... and scream it will. Tomorrow, my friends, you all will see.

^nice, looking forward to hearing it. my friends dad is gonna pick up a new 5.0 soon

ask and you shall receive gentlemen, sorry the vid kinda gets cut off at the end but my card ran out of memory haha

:tup:

Fuuuu that is loud, Red! I think I'm going to order the Borla S-Type axleback for mine here in the next few weeks and that should be good.

BTW, I like your calves.

:rofl2: Grazi!

its pretty damn loud when you get on it, but when its idling, its only slightly louder than stock. It was funny, yesterday there were a group of children at the playground across from a parking lot where i was at, I revved my engine real loud, not realizing they were there and out of the corner of my eye, seen them all jump, thats when you know your car is a beast:icon17:

hey did anyone else notice the 5.0 in the new Hawaii Five O?

Mustang 5.0 Stars In New Hawaii Five O

noice!

Red... that sound is just sick!!!! WOW!!!

Thanks man, I was just bullshittin outside with the neighbor lady, she asked me if I went anywhere around 8 this morning, of course I know but asked anyway "how'd you know?", she replies "I think you know", I got a good laugh outta that:icon17:

Thanks for the new show! I'm loving the first episode so far! I cant wait for the second!

such good action and the cameramen are rly good at getting good shots at diff angles

I did something I probably should not of, but I test drove the new BMW 335 IS - & wow!
No I have to decide between 370Z - GT - 335IS

I took the G37 off my list, the seats are just not comfortable for me.

Haha, good luck deciding. All three are nice cars. I'm guessing the 335 is the most expensive option of the three.

yes, it's the new IS - sport tuned version
Loaded it was in the low 60's

Hot damn!

At that point just buy a M3, it will be like getting a Vette GS, all the suspension and other work but the pussy engine. Note, I still think the Vette GS is nice but at the end of the day I would never buy it.

true, the base M3 is only about 9k more then the base IS
if your gonna spend 60, mine as well spend 70

If you are seriously considering the 335 IS I would look at the 2011 GT500 instead of the regular GT. You're also well into the lightly used GTR range at 60k.

but who actually wants a base m3? if you can even find one...

Yeah, if you are going to spend 70k, you may as well drop 75-80k and get a GT-R. Well at that point, you may as well drop 90k and go with a...and so on. ;)

Only thing is I probably want an auto - GT500 is manual only
the GT-R maintenance is just ridiculous $8,000 for brakes at $22,000 miles, no thanks.

I believe the 2012 is hoping to help relieve that a bit, but not 100% sure yet.

Figured I'd stick this in here since this seems like the "unnoficial 5.0 owners thread."

New tags came in this week and it finally stopped raining so I put them on this morning.

Did you replace the live rear axle yet, noob? Cuz if not, fail. You'll be able to beat me in a straight line, but a miata will own you in the curves. Nring times? Plus, you've got an ugly *** interior made of low quality materials. Yeah, it's leather, but probably from dumb, stupid, ugly cows. And so what you can change led colors? That won't make it handel. I'm gonna engine swap my Z like it says I can in Forza, for the v8 from an R390, and then I'll beat your stock mustang that hopefully you won't mod to make it just as faster.

Ya, well I picked up an SR20DET. ya, it cost me a lot bc it was 1 week b4 race wars, but it don't mattr cus i will win it all abck in a week or less.
