Up for auction is my 2003 Ford Mustang Cobra 1 of 1. It is a one of one as it was recorded for the show Knight Rider (2009). I worked on the show and the sound of the car in the show is my/this car. I hate to sell it but I bought another car and this one just sits. Not is a rush to sell, but will entertain all offers. The car will come with Three signed letters from the Knight Rider sound supervisor, the Sound FX editor/Recordist, and myself. It was mic'd up under the hood and on the rear bumper for the stereo recording. A GT500 was used as the car BUT the sound of the car was actually this 2003 cobra. I will also include an audio CD (and wav files if requested) with some of the source audio recordings. Now more about the car itself. I am the only and original owner since new, purchased September 2002. The car has 81k miles. The only modifications have been: A 2.76 pulley (since 13k miles), dyno tune, Cold air intake, short throw shifter, and a Mac 3 inch catback only (so it passes smog every time). The car has always run great, I had it tuned a little rich as not to push the motor. Only mechanical repairs in 10 years have been: Rear pumpkin reseal (common on these, under warranty years ago), alternator, water pump? (cant recall), radiator, 02 sensors, batteries and a clutch. The car only left me stranded once in 10 years and that was when the alternator died. Never had the dreaded tick that some cobras had. The brake pads were replaced within the last 6 months (not sure if rotors can be resurfaced or not next time). Tires are in great shape all around. The clutch was done at about 50k miles and currently is just ok, minor marbling sounds (quiets down when clutch depressed) the last 10,000 miles but works well, no slipping at all. The car was hit 3 times. In 2003 the drivers rear quarter panel and rear bumper were repaired, ~2007 the drivers fender and front bumper were repaired, and lastly the front bumper/headlight/hood were pushed in and cracked in and never repaired. please see pics. The exterior and interior are in POOR to fair condition. I say this honestly as the paint is faded in spots, long scratch on hood (Keyed at dodger game), some surface scratches and scuffs around car, the drivers seat is ripped pretty bad, headliner is sagging just a bit in the back (not so bad to affect rear view really), boost gauge only works sometimes (usually when cold). Kelly blue book on a fair condition 2003 cobra is ~13,200.00 and ~15,400.00 for good condition (which this one falls short of). Of course KBB does not factor in 1 of 1 :) Please feel free to see the car in person and have the car inspected before Bidding. All Sales will be final, the car is sold as is. Paypal deposit is due within 48 hours in the amount of 1000.00. the balance and vehicle pickup must be made within 5 days from auction end. Cash in person is preferred but paypal will be accepted (very small fee may be added if paypal is used), The car is in Studio City, CA. PICKUP/Local sales only OR USA Out of state buyers MUST arrange their own transportation, contact me before auction end, and use paypal. Serious buyers ONLY. I listed this car as honestly as I can please check my feedback. Ask ANY and ALL questions before bidding/offering. This is a one of one 2003 cobra, audio recorded for the sound of K.I.T.T in the Knight Rider 2009 Series. Thanks for looking, make me an offer I can't refuse!

Alan Mulally talks about why Ford's Falcon had to die
Tue, 20 Aug 2013When Ford made the decision to end production of the Falcon sedan and Territory CUV in Australia, it wasn't a popular move Down Under. The large, four-door Falcon had been in production for 50 years, and while Ford has reaffirmed its commitment to the Australian market, it's understandable that some people still aren't all that crazy about the Blue Oval's decision.
Speaking to CEO Alan Mulally after Ford's Go Further event in Sydney, Australian site Go Auto reports that the decision was not one made lightly, and that the automaker is doing everything possible to respect the Falcon and Territory's "stakeholders." It's an interesting piece that shows a softer side of a corporation, while demonstrating that Ford is doing everything in its power to make the end of production as smooth as possible for all parties.
Head over to Go Auto for the full series of remarks from Mulally, and then let us know what you think of Ford's handling of the Falcon and Territory discontinuations, in Comments.
Amid Mulally rumors, Bill Ford praises company's deep bench
Wed, 02 Oct 2013Bill Ford went on the offensive to combat the rumors that CEO Alan Mulally would leave Dearborn for Steve Ballmer's vacated position leading Microsoft, adding that even if the 68-year-old, former Boeing exec were to depart, the Ford executive team is in a good place.
"I'm happy [Mulally] is going to stick around. But we also feel really good about where we are in terms of succession," Ford told Bloomberg TV, according to Automotive News. Rumors first cropped up about Mulally leaving Ford when AllThingsD speculated that he was in the running, early last month. In that same report, which you can read here, Ford's board of directors reportedly okayed the CEO stepping down ahead of his planned retirement in 2014.
That opened the floodgates, culminating in a report from a few days ago that the rumors over Ballmer's successor just might be true. The story is especially troubling, as Ford hasn't had Mulally under contract, according to AN. "He's here as long as he and I would like it to happen," Ford said, "We're also cognizant of training the next generation and getting them ready to go as well."
