Up for bidding is my pride and joy, a rare 1998 Chrome Yellow Cobra. The only reason for selling is to purchase a new Mustang. This car started out as a bone stock Cobra upon my purchasing it, and it was tastefully modified with parts from the company I work for, Latemodelrestoration.com We used the car for various instructional videos on modifying and restoring this platform. It is also featured on the front of our latest catalog. I have enjoyed the car, but it is time to move on to the next project. Who ever wins the auction for this car will be purchasing a car that has become common place on Latemodel Restoration advertisements and videos on our Youtube Channel and it receives positive attention everywhere it goes. It is mechanically 100% and I would trust it to take me anywhere. When I set out to make this car my own, the modifications we're done to be subtle, yet update the car at the same time. Cosmetically the car received chrome 18x9 and 18x10 Saleen Style wheels, with brand new Nitto 555 tires. The tires have less than 300 miles on them. No curb rash of any kind. The suspension was refreshed with new bushings, Eibach Sportline Lowering Springs, Tokico HP shocks and struts, and J&M Caster Camber Plates. The handling and ride and drive is excellent and solid as a rock. It's one of the best riding Mustangs I have ever driven. As far as drivetrain goes, I kept it simple with a K&N air filter, BBK offroad H pipe, and Flowmaster American Thunder Catback. The car sounds great and will also come with the stock catted H pipe if you live where emission testing is done. It still has its factory 3.27 gears so its great on the highway and still gets great gas mileage. All fluids are fresh and no leaks of any kind. The transmission is grind free and solid with a MGW short throw shifter. The factory shifter will be included as well. Cosmetically, it is a wreck free, rust free Texas car. The paint is nice with no dents or dings of any kind. All weatherstripping is still nice and soft as well. The interior is bone stock and in excellent shape. It still has that leather smell and has not been smoked in. The stock mach 460 stereo is still there and sounds great. The CD player and tape deck still function as they should. The car truly needs nothing and if you are looking for a daily driver, or car to take to the car shows, it will perform well for you. I have set the reserve respectfully and would like the car to go to a good home where it will be enjoyed. With cold AC, and hot heat, it is ready to go. If you have any questions, feel free to email me. Ebay will not allow me to post video links directly on here, so shoot me an email, and I'll be more than happy to email the videos of the car to you, or you can go to youtube and search for "Karson's Cobra", and the video's will come up for you. Good luck and Happy Bidding! -Karson

VW going turbo-only in 3 to 4 years

Wed, 18 Sep 2013

This 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.

2015 Ford Mustang to offer solid-rear axle, sort of

Tue, 17 Dec 2013

One of the biggest knocks against the last Ford Mustang was its solid-rear axle. Not one to actively court criticism, Ford dutifully swapped out the old-fashioned rear end for something a bit more modern in the redesigned 2015 Mustang, adding an independent rear suspension across the board.
While an IRS Mustang is great news for those that value handling and ride comfort, there's one big group that it's bad news for - drag racers. See, a solid-rear axle is a big deal for drag racers, because not only is it more durable and cheaper, but it's better for the hard launches that can make or break a race.
To satiate this vocal demographic, Ford will sell a body-in-white version of the Stang, complete with a nine-inch rear axle, that will debut at the 2014 Performance Racing Industry show. The news came from gas2.org, which cited an unnamed employee of Ford Racing at this year's PRI show.

Ford to hack $4k off price of Focus EV amid slow sales

Wed, 10 Jul 2013

Between slow sales and a hefty price drop for its nearest rival, the Ford Focus Electric may be looking at a pretty substantial price cut. The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will drop the price of the all-electric by about $4,000 to $35,200 to be more competitive with the Nissan Leaf, which received a big price cut for 2013 down to $28,800.
Ford has already admitted to having low expectations for the car's sales and massive rebates were reported earlier in the year, but there is still no official word from Ford on this matter. The company's consumer site still lists the 2014 model's starting price as $39,200. In addition to the Leaf, the Focus Electric will also have to deal with the lower prices of smaller EVs including the Honda Fit EV, Fiat 500e and the Chevrolet Spark EV.
