 I have never done a carfacts report on this vehichle, but this is what I was told from the previous owner. The car was originally purchased in GA. It was purchased as a mustang GT and the original owner through his own expense had the car sent to  SHELBY INTERNATIONAL  in SOUTHFIELD MICHIGAN  for the  GT 500 package. it spent about the first 7 years in GA and then purchased by an older gentleman in PA. He owned it for about a year and put less than 1000 miles on it and only sold it because it had a performance clutch that was to difficult for his wife to push down to shift. The car was bought for her. I bought it in 2009 with aproximatly 70000k miles. It has been meticulously maintained and kept in the garage under a car cover when not in use. It now has 135000k miles on it,Mainly highway miles because when I bought it, I lived in NJ and spent a year driving back and forth from NJ to SC looking to purchase a new home and retire. It has only seen the rain a handful of times and has never been raced or beat on. It is adult owned with a clear title. AS far as condition, the driver seat has a tear on the  ass part where the metal frame has come to the surface and wore a hole. I'm a big guy so that probably figures into it. Other wise the interior is very decent. I just had the sunvisors professionally redone with leather. the factory used a fabric that the sun quickly wore out. I also must say, the top is rarely up,whats the point of a convt.? The paint is decent with a couple very small nicks here and there. there are no dents and to my knowledge it has never been in an accident.The Experian report in this listing mentions an accident, I assure you I have no knowledge of that and if it happened ,it must have been very minor! It has a 4.6 liter with the cold air intake and I was told some other things have been done to the motor. When I bought the car I was given a Dyno print out of 325 HP to the rear wheels but lost it in the move. once you drive it, you will have no doubt that's true! It is going to need a new clutch soon but it's absolutely driveable. I would get in it and drive to California today ,that's how much confidence I have in this car. along with the back and forth from NJ to SC ,the car has gone to  TN -FLA- NIAGRA FALLS CANADA and a few other places  without ever having any kind of problems. All work snce  I have owned it has been done by a certified mustang guy who teaches automotives here at the SC technical school. Tires have plenty of life left and I just replaced the stereo because the CD player on the factory mach 6 system bit the dust. The top is in good shape also. if someone wants to see a pic with top up just ask. I just didn't want to take off the hard shell. It has the original boot and hard shell cover  and I'll throw in the car cover too. I can't think of anything else at this moment but if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask. Buyer will be required to deposit $500 in my pay pal account upon purchase and I would prefer the rest in cash or certified check, but the car stays here until check completely clears. I've heard stories of fake cahiers checks so please don't take it personally. It's not a must sell for me, I have another supercharged mustang that's my daily driver so keeping it is no big deal. I just don't drive it much anymore ,don't really want to put anymore miles than I have to on it.SO long story short, I'm a regular honest Christian guy who is  not trying to screw anyone. what I say in this ad is what I know. I welcome any  REASONABLE offers. I know there was not a factory GT 500 in 2002 so I really have no idea what this package adds to it's value. I know what I paid and I know what I'd like to get. That's about it!-- oh, buyer is responsible for arranging pick up and all that stuff. I sold a 74 duster a few months ago to a guy in FLa. and it cost him $300 to have it shipped from SC to his front door if that helps.

Volkswagen Golf, Ford F-150 named 2015 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year

Mon, Jan 12 2015

Congratulations, Volkswagen Golf/GTI and Ford F-150. You've just been named the 2015 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year, kicking off the first press day of the Detroit Auto Show. The Golf faced some seriously stiff competition from its runners-up, the Ford Mustang and Hyundai Genesis. But the Golf has been a highly awarded vehicle since its launch, including recently being named Motor Trend's Car of the Year. As for the Truck/Utility award, it wasn't immediately clear that the aluminum-bodied Ford F-150 would win the North American honor, topping the Chevrolet Colorado and Lincoln MKC. The Chevy, after all, has been widely praised since arriving this fall, including taking home MT's Truck of the Year award. In 2014, Chevrolet had a sweep of the NACTOY awards, with the Corvette Stingray and Silverado taking top honors. Here's a look at the 2015 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year voting breakdown. As you can see, it wasn't exactly neck and neck. Car of the Year Volkswagen Golf/GTI – 256 points Ford Mustang – 204 points Hyundai Genesis – 110 points Truck/Utility of the Year Ford F-150 – 297 points Chevrolet Colorado – 205 points Lincoln MKC – 68 points The winners were determined by the votes of 57 North American jurors who work in all forms of media – magazine, newspaper, television, online and radio, and their ballots were tabulated in secret by accounting firm Deloitte & Touche. Autoblog editors Sharon Carty and Chris Paukert are members of the North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year jury.

We spy the Ford Mustang King Cobra early at SEMA

Tue, 04 Nov 2014

As is the case with most auto shows, waiting for the reveal of hot new models is the worst part. So, while our own Drew Phillips has been wandering the halls here in Las Vegas since they unlocked the doors for SEMA 2014, we didn't expect him to come back with any big reveals until later in the day. Until this happened.
Meandering by the Ford stand, Phillips eagle-eyed a trunk lid that caught his attention. Popping out from an otherwise draped 2015 Mustang, the matte black lid clearly has the name King Cobra embossed on the rear.
That name is interesting for a few reasons: to start, Ford hasn't used the Cobra name (without "Jet" attached) since way back in 2004, so a new snake is certainly something to take note of. Second, the King Cobra name dates all the way back to the ill-remembered Mustang II, meaning there is a clear link to Blue Oval history here.

Car technology I'm thankful and unthankful for

Mon, Nov 27 2017

The past few years have seen a surge of tech features in new vehicles — everything from cloud-based content to semi-autonomous driving. While some of it makes the driving experience better, not all tech is useful or well thought out. Automakers who are adept at drivetrains, ride quality and in-cabin comforts often fail at infotainment interfaces and connectivity. From testing dozens of vehicles each year and in the spirit of gratitude, here are three car tech features I'm thankful — and a trio I could live without. Thanks Connected search: This seems like a no-brainer since everyone already has it on their smartphones, but not all automakers include it in the dashboard and as part of their nav systems. The best ones, such as Toyota Entune, leverage a driver's connected device to search for a range of services and don't charge a subscription or require a separate data plan for the car. I also like how systems like Chrysler Uconnect use Yelp or other apps to find everything from coffee to gas stations and allow searching via voice recognition. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto: It took two of the largest tech companies to get in-dash infotainment right. While they have their disadvantages (you're forced to use Apple Maps with CarPlay, for example), the two smartphone-integration platforms make it easier and safer to use their respective native apps for phoning, messaging, music and more behind the wheel by transferring a familiar UI to the dashboard — with no subscription required. Heated seats and steering wheels: I really appreciate these simple but pleasant features come wintertime. It's easy to get spoiled by bun-warmers on frosty mornings and using a heated steering wheel to warm the cold hands. I recently tested a 2018 Mercedes-Benz E400 Coupe that also had heated armrest that added to a cozy luxury experience. Bonus points for brands like Buick that allow setting seat heaters to turn on when the engine is remotely started. No thanks Automaker infotainment systems: Automakers have probably poured millions into creating their own infotainment systems, with the result largely being frustration on the part of most car owners. And Apple CarPlay and Android Auto coming along to make them obsolete. While some automaker systems, such as Toyota Entune and FCA's Uconnect, are easy and intuitive to use, it seems that high-end systems (I'm looking at you BMW iDrive and Mercedes-Benz COMAND) are the most difficult.
