Up for bid is my 2006 Ford Mustang premium GT. It has the 4.6L 3V V8 engine with a 5-speed manual transmission. The car is performance white with red/black leather interior and has the Shaker 500 stereo and most of the usual creature comforts such as cruise, tilt and power windows. I bought this car new in Jan 2006 and have owned it ever since. It has 7,631 miles on the odometer. Non-smoker. Clean and clear title. Despite the low mileage, the oil has been changed at least twice a year with Mobil One synthetic. The car has a variety of performance upgrades highlighted by a Kenne Bell twin screw intercooled supercharger kit set at 10psi of boost. I also have the kit supplied 8psi pulley.
The cosmetic condition of the car is near excellent in my opinion. It has been adult driven and garage kept since the day I took ownership. I have been caught in the rain in it 3 times. The paint overall is in excellent shape with a few blemishes here and there. The side skirts, front and rear bumper covers have normal expectants of imperfections for a lowered street driven car with wide tires and an aggressive tread pattern. Exterior upgrades include: Classic Design Concepts ducktail spoiler, Classic Design Concepts C-pillar scoops and has the corresponding cloth inserts in the interior to give a factory look, painted mirror covers, shorty antenna, satin aluminum fuel door and custom running horse pony in the grill.
The interior condition is near mint, only very light wear on the driver seat as to be expected. Interior is mostly stock with the exception of the Hurst Billet Plus shifter and push button start which is not required to start the car but is functional. In other words, the engine will still start using the key. Aftermarket floor mats, aluminum pedal covers, UPR polished aluminum window switch plate covers and polished aluminum radio dial. It also has a triple A-pillar gage pod with: boost, fuel pressure and a digital tachometer with shift light. Note: the Auto Meter digital tach is unreadable as several of the lights are burnt out but the shift light functions.
This car has excellent street manners and drives very nicely. The Kenne Bell tune that was supplied with the supercharger kit was ditched in favor of a custom dyno tune performed by Ken Bjonnes of Modular Depot in Cincinnati, Ohio. This was done mainly to improve throttle response as the then new, electronic throttles in these cars were notoriously bad for lagging. If curious, the car made 454 rear wheel horsepower and 430 ft/lbs of torque. Included with the car also is an SCT Excalibrator 2 computer programmer.
Other upgrades include a full JBA exhaust system that features ceramic coated 1 5/8" long tube headers feeding into a 2.5" JBA high flow catted H-Pipe that feeds into the factory mid pipes and lastly out a Flowmaster American Thunder axle back exhaust. It is quite loud under acceleration but definitely tolerable when cruising. Car also has a Centerforce Dual Friction clutch kit and a Fidanza aluminum flywheel. Sits on 18" chrome Bullitt wheels that are deep dished in the back. Tires are BFGoodrich KDW 2 series and the rear set have less than two hundred miles on them. Rides on Eibach pro lowering springs kit. Also upgraded was a complete rear axle assembly from Ford Racing. It is the same axle that comes stock on the current Boss and GT500 mustangs and has 3.73 gears, a bump up from the factory 3.55's. The axle also has a finned rear differential cover for cooling purposes, 31 spline axles and the axle housing itself is painted matte black, nice touch I thought. This upgrade was performed in March of this year along with new rear BFG KDW 2 tires and powerslot rotors with Hawk high performance brake pads on all four corners. The front tires do show signs of wear compared to the rear ones but are still in good shape.
Other things that come with the car is a California Car Cover Noah style cover and a plethora of literature including Kenne Bell order forms and kit information, all receipts for upgrades, 06 mustang literature booklet from Ford, all included factory owner manuals and both sets of keys. I also have the window sticker but would prefer to keep it for sentimental reasons but would part with it if its important to a perspective buyer. I have tried to provide as much information as possible but if their is anything I have missed or you would like to see a specific photoed area of the car, please ask. All in all, I have over $13,000 invested in upgrades to the car. In closing I think I should make mention that this car has not been beaten on or abused. I bought the car when I was 25 and am 32 now. I primarily used the car for cruise-ins and weekend cruising with the occasional standing stop run through the gears or some hot rodding around town to run an errand. No side stepping the clutch from a stop or sustained high rpm, high speed interstate runs. It is a strong running car and I'm very confident in the condition of it. Thanks for looking. Can be contacted at anytime on the weekends or after 7p.m. EST at (859) 771-5903.

Ford Transit gets outfitted for prison duty
Wed, 24 Sep 2014Between the Taurus-based Police Interceptor, the Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility and the F-150 and Expedition special service vehicles, Ford has no lack of offerings for law enforcement. And now it has one more in the form of the new Transit PTV.
Based on the fullsize Transit van, the Prisoner Transport Vehicle can move as many as 12 prisoners in three separate compartments between detention facilities. Created in collaboration with Pennsylvania-based Havis Prisoner Transport Solutions and with input from Ford's Police Advisory Board, the Transit PTV takes advantage of the Transit's considerable configuration options that include three roof heights, two wheelbases, three lengths and four body-styles - not to mention engine options that include the flex-fuel 3.7-liter V6, 3.5-liter EcoBoost and 3.2-liter Power Stroke diesel.
"Transit PTV is the latest example of Ford's deep commitment to helping provide law enforcement agencies with capable vehicles. This concept proves Transit is upfit-ready and designed to Built Ford Tough standards," said Jonathan Honeycutt, Ford police marketing manager. "Many Police Advisory Board members have had the chance to drive this vehicle and they are excited about it. This new vehicle is tough, smart and efficient - ideal for the needs of law enforcement agencies."
Watch this Ford F-150 SVT Raptor fly like an eagle [UPDATE]
Mon, 04 Feb 2013The Ford F-150 SVT Raptor is a very capable truck right out of the box, but "capable" has never translated into "invincible." Just ask the owner of the machine in this video. In it, the driver gets frisky with an aggressive jump with plenty of speed on his hands. The result is enough air to make Vaughn Gittin Jr. blush. As always, it's not the launch that's painful, but the re-entry. Gravity eventually asserts its dominance over the $43,630 pickup in a big way, and when it comes crashing down, it does so with a vengeance.
The impact was hard enough to set off both the alarm and multiple airbags inside the cabin. It's unclear if anyone was injured in the stunt, but we certainly wouldn't be surprised to hear that was the case. You can check out the stunt in the video below, and remember, when in doubt, back out of the throttle. Be warned, there may be some explicit/NSFW language in the clip.
UPDATE: Second video added with an even better look at the jump added below.
2014 Ford Transit Connect Taxi hopes to fare thee well
Mon, 23 Sep 2013New York City may have selected its taxi of tomorrow, but there are still plenty of municipalities across the US with citizens that depend on yellow livery cars to get them across town in a jiffy. That's why Ford is going ahead with this, the new Transit Connect Taxi.
Based on the 2014 Transit Connect, the TC Taxi boasts a number of features designed to make the compact van appeal to discerning taxi drivers and their fares, with the most notable upgrade being a standardized prep package to convert the 2.5-liter four to run on liquefied petroleum or compressed natural gas. The clean-burning fuel options will allow operators to save on fuel costs and cut down on pollution without sacrificing performance.
A lower load floor and a new twist-beam rear suspension are meant to improve the riding experience for passengers, while the longer 2014 Transit Connect sports extra cargo space as well. In addition to the CNG/LPG conversion, the Transit Connect Taxi can also be easily modified for wheelchair access. Drivers, meanwhile, will have access to optional goodies like Sync with MyFord Touch and a rear-view camera.
