This is my sons car and listing, I have approved it, great car, now I am out.

1990 LX Mustang "1993 SVT Cobra clone" with many upgrades and modifications. The body has 150,000 plus miles but the drive line and mechanical equipment has no more than 10000, I will try to list everything I can but I'm sure something will be forgotten, so please ask questions.

Interior- Stock interior, Not much exciting here.

 

I bought this car in 2007 90% done. The only thing I have had to complete was the engine management portion. Since the car was completed it has only had roughly 10,000 miles put on it. I have had the car in several car shows locally and have won a best of show in a muscle car class. The car presents very well,  drives very well, and is quite quick. It is, however, not a Barrett- Jackson car or a race car. With that said here is the bad.

-Minor flaws in the paint mainly on the front and rear bumpers as it was painted in garage not a booth. The radio does not work. I have never looked into this as I didn't drive the car often enough to care about radio. The A.C. was never charged so it also doesn't work, compressor does. The driver seat has a small rip from 23 years of exiting and entering the car, The tires have a vibration above 70. I think they may be flat spotted from sitting. The fuel pressure gauge reads max pressure all the time even if the car is off and the gauge is removed.

This car you can tell by the description is wicked fast, they are out there better, faster, but not at this price. Email me for any questions, or more info at: mblyle@mchsi.com, Thanks Mike

  Looking at my pictures, they don't do the car justice. The paint looks like generic red, but it actually is the 93 Cobra red. It has a little bit of an orange tint. The car really pops in the sun. I stated earlier it was garage painted, that sounds bad, but it actually has a pretty presentable paint job. Bumpers do have some flaws. Don't expect best of show for paint, but you won't be embarrassed either. The car beat out some really nice cars for the trophy I won.

  The under hood shots also look a little dingy. My camera usually takes great pictures, but for some reason they look a little lame, don't know why, they just didn't transfer well. The under hood looks very nice, not perfect, but detailed well.

All said, Every time I drive it, I get a ton of looks. Not to mention it backs it up with the way it runs.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:

Xcar celebrates 100-year anniversary with Model T tribute

Fri, Jan 9 2015

Never mind the fact that XCar hasn't been making videos for the last 100 years, the British duo have gone all silent-moving-pictures in order to make their centenary case for the Ford Model T, a car that was already seven years old in 1915. It's not a review, but a mostly sepia-tinged look at the car that started the mass-market adventure by taking that biblical advice to be fruitful and multiply and populate the Earth abundantly. Since it looks like Xcar is celebrating some kind of milestone, we've also included another video below of the first Xcar review we could find, covering the BMW M1, from the much more recent past - circa 2012.

Tue, 11 Nov 2014



"It's about some of the biggest crises in history. It's about who did it right and who did it wrong." - Jason Vines
