Up for sale is a 2003 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra with 22,151 miles. I bought the car in 2011 and it has been stored in a climate controlled garage since then. The car has never seen salt or snow. I spent an enormous amount of time cleaning the entire car. There is absolutely no rust on the car or on the undercarriage. The interior looks very close to brand new. The rear and passenger seats do not look like they have ever been sat in. The drivers seat has no rips or tears. The only sign of wear on the drivers seat are some minor wrinkles on the leather. The body is immaculate. Other than a handful of stone chips, the body is as nice as you can get especially for a 13 year old car. Both under the hood and undercarriage are super clean. Everything works as it should. Every single fluid and filter has been changed on the car. I used GM Synchromesh tranny fluid, Royal Purple diff fluid, the proper yellow coolant the owners manual calls for, supercharger oil, and full synthetic motor oil. The tires have roughly 4,000 miles on them, and the brakes are roughly 60% so they have plenty of life left. When I purchased the car, it was bone stock. I did do some modifications to the car. Here is the list:-Steeda 2.81 upper pulley-Steeda 100mm idler pulley-JLT Ram Air intake-Short throw shifter-Bassani Exhaust-IRS brace-Sumitomo tires 275x40x17 all 4-Afco dual pass heat exchanger-Tuned with an SCT Bama tuner (included)-Modded hood vents for better air flow-Shorty antenna-180 degree thermostat-NGK spark plugs-Classic Design Concepts light bar (not installed but included in the auction)-Front sway bar (not installed but included in the auction) I never had the car dyno tested, but based on the mods done, the car has roughly 440-450 RWHP and about the same RWTQ. All mods were done right and the car runs and drives excellent. The supercharger screams! I do have the convertible boot cover. I am including 2 extra 275x40x17 Cobra wheels with the original Good Year Eagle F1 tires on them. The wheels are in excellent condition. I am also including the Cobra car cover. Everything that I took a picture of is included. I have the stock pulley cover, heat exchanger and intake. The car was in an accident a long time ago. The person that I bought the car from owned a small dealership and he had his body guys do all of the repairs using OEM parts. This was his personal car for roughly 7 years. I kept his business card with a picture of my Cobra on the front of it so everything I say can be verified by him. I normally shy away from cars with a salvage title, but I made an exception for this car because it is gorgeous in and out. I am more than happy to make arrangements for anyone who wants to check out the car before Purchasing it. This car will not disappoint. The only reason why I am selling it is I recently moved and I do not have the room any more, so the car has to go. I never had a problem or issue with the car. It has been 100% reliable for the past 5 years. If you have any questions, Im happy to answer them to the best of my ability. Thank you.

2016 Ford Taurus to ride atop reworked Fusion platform
Wed, 19 Mar 2014Generally, cars get bigger and heavier as they get older. That's why it looks so ridiculous when you park a classic Mini next to a modern version. The same can be said of the Corvette, the BMW 3 Series, Porsche 911 and, of course, the Ford Taurus. In the Taurus' case, though, that size has become a liability, particularly because the big brute isn't nearly as sizable on the inside as it is on the out.
For 2016, Ford is aiming to rectify that. According to Edmunds, the 2016 Taurus will ride on a stretched and widened Ford Fusion platform. Ford is expecting this move to go a long way in trimming the Taurus' ample body fat.
"The problem with today's Taurus is that it is overweight and even the high performance SHO is not really competitive," said a source that spoke to Edmunds on condition of anonymity. The 365-horsepower SHO variant, "actually weighs about as much as the stretched Audi A8 L. Of course, Audi uses an extensive amount of aluminum, but it is a much bigger car."
Lincoln MKC recalled because start button located too close to touchscreen [UPDATE]
Wed, Dec 31 2014UPDATE: Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker responded to our questions and let us know that the fix for the push-button start on the 2015 MKC has the switch moved to the top of the of the column of gear shift buttons instead of the bottom. Owners should be notified about both campaigns "toward the end of February." After massive campaigns from General Motors and to fix Takata airbag inflators, 2014 will undoubtedly go down as The Year Of The Recall. And with little time to spare, Ford is getting in just under the wire to adding two more to its yearly total. The larger of the campaigns is actually one of the most bizarre campaigns we've heard of all year. Lincoln is recalling 13,574 units of its 2015 MKC compact crossover in North America to move the location of the push-button ignition switch on the dashboard. According to the automaker's announcement: "Due to the switch's close proximity to other controls, occupants are inadvertently shutting off the engine while driving." The button is located near the bottom of the touchscreen, which can apparently make it possible to hit by mistake. Back when Autoblog first drove the new MKC in June, we came away very impressed, but noted: "... we're still not completely sold on the aforementioned pushbutton transmission selector ... it still seems somewhat gimmicky and it can't be operated by feel alone, as you might when shifting a traditional console-mounted lever from Park to Drive." According to Lincoln, there have been no reported accidents or injuries stemming from this button misapplication. Of the affected vehicles, there are 11,144 in the US, 2,033 in Canada and 397 in Mexico. To fix the problem, dealers are moving the button to a different location and reprogramming the powertrain control module. According to Automotive News, models built since September already have a different layout. The change was reportedly done to match the rest of the Lincoln lineup. The second recall covers 12,205 units of the 2014 Ford Escape (2015 model year pictured below) and 2015 Lincoln MKC in North America because of a problem with nickel plating on the fuel pump. The issue can cause the pump to seize, which can cause the crossovers not to start or stall while driving. The automaker is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this fault. Dealers are replacing the fuel deliver module to fix the situation. Of the affected vehicles, there are 9,038 in the US, 3,074 in Canada and 93 in Mexico.
