This Mustang has been very well taken care of. Previous owner was an older gentleman in his 60's, babied the car and kept it garaged. Never driven in winter, therefore, no rust. It does have a few dings and a few chips in the paint. The right front corner of the bumper has some paint chipping but overall its in very good condition for a 21 year old car. The top is original, has a couple of stress cracks where it folds when its down but it has absolutely zero leaks. I have replaced several pieces of weatherstripping, new KYB shocks, new Eibach lowering springs, new subframe connectors, new stage 2 clutch and cable, new billet short throw shifter. New Pypes stainless x-pipe, new SLP loudmouth stainless exhaust, new battery, msd cap, ford racing wires, BBK shorty headers, electric fan and last but certainly not least, a Paxton Novi 2000 supercharger! The interior is nearly perfect, carpet is great, seats are great, door panels and dash are great. Everything works as it should, including the power top, power windows, powers locks, cruise control and power lumbar seats. I cannot verify if the A/C is working at this time, but I do know it still has R-12 refrigerant in the system as it is holding pressure. The headlights are crystal clear too, unlike most plastic headlights. It has great tires with lots of tread left, and all trim and top is still very black, not faded. The original top boot is in the trunk and looks brand new. This car is very fast and very fun to drive. The supercharger really makes this thing pull hard and spin the tires for as long as you want, or at least til you redline it. The exhaust is very loud when you floor it, but its a sweet open header sound that makes your heart race. Yet when driving normally around town its not that bad at all. You can still hear the radio at highway speeds which is very good considering it is a convertible. I've invested a lot of time and money into this car, just under 10k over the winter just to get it ready for spring and summer top down fun, but I need to make room for a car for my son and this definitely is not a car for a kid. I may consider partial trades for a small nice fuel efficient vehicle for my son along with some cash or a nice Jeep wrangler with a 6 cylinder only. I may consider a diesel truck as well, doesn't hurt to ask, just no junk, rust buckets or project vehicles, quads, boats or motorcycles. Any questions, just ask by text or call. Matthew 319-423-1555, and please no joyrides or tire kickers. I will take you for a ride but don't expect to come and have me hand over the keys so you can take it around the block.

Auto critic calls out Corvette, Mustang and Cherokee faithful
Mon, 26 Aug 2013Most automotive purists fear change, but not without reason. Change, after all, did kill big-block V8s, along with most station wagons and manual transmissions. But change has also brought with it far more performance, safety and fuel economy - not to mention ridding the world of shag carpet interiors, bias-ply tires and those horrible motorized seatbelts of the early '90s.
By this time next year, the Chevy Corvette, Jeep Cherokee and next-generation Ford Mustang will all be on sale and will all, in some way, have angered or offended purists. To those critics, Mark Phelan of the Detroit Free Press is preemptively telling them to stop complaining - at least until they've all been driven. From the Corvette's square taillights and the Cherokee's radical nose to whatever pony car purists will harp on the 2015 Mustang for, Phelan's column points out the positives of automotive evolution and the negatives of staying the course for too long. That's fair enough, but do you think Phelan is on point, or all wet? Head on over to the Detroit Free Press to read his words, then have your say in Comments.
VW going turbo-only in 3 to 4 years
Wed, 18 Sep 2013This really was a matter of when, rather than if. Volkswagen will apparently be the first manufacturer to phase out naturally aspirated engines in favor of turbocharging its full slate. VW is kind of responsible for ushering in this push towards small-displacement, turbocharged engines that's taken the industry by storm. When it dropped its direct-injection, 2.0-liter turbo in the 2005 GTI it demonstrated that strapping an iron long to an engine can enhance the powertrain as a whole. VW made fuel economy gains, while also giving a linear, non-laggy turbo experience that it has replicated, model-after-model, to this day.
Speaking with The Detroit News, Volkswagen's executive Vice President of Group Quality, Marc Trahan, told the paper that, "We only have one normally aspirated gas engine, and when we go to the next generation vehicle that it's in, it will be replaced. So three, four years maximum."
Really, it's hard to get teary-eyed about either of these engines going away. VW has access to smaller powerplants that could easily match the performance of the 2.5 five-cylinder and the 3.6 V6, while gobbling up less fuel and providing a better driving experience. What we are sad about is that a similar statement about the extinction of NA engines came from the Vice President of Powertrain Engineering at Ford, Joe Bakaj. We'd certainly get teary-eyed over a world without Ford's excellent 5.0-liter V8.
