No, no it's a V6. I can't afford insurance on the V8... lol. No complaints though.

Yes, it has the GT Body Package on it, and the door trim is a hit or miss thing. I'm still deciding whether or not I like it.

I haven't got much planned at this point. I would like to get the nice Pony Fender Emblems (cheap upgrade) for the left and right of the car. Also, I'll probably look into a axle-back system just to give it a little "bigger" sound.

Nothing real big.

looks good man. You should get some gt take-off bullitt wheels and tires. They look alot better imo and they have much better traction.

Has anyone got the Magnaflow Part #15889 -- V6 Axel Back Exhaust on their 2k5 V6??

I've read there are some problems requiring the rear bumper to be cut... which I'm not willing to do.

Anyone have one of these, I like the sound you get from the V6 out of the Magna's... not to loud but definately more a presence than the stock pipe.

Ordered some of the OEM Ford Pony Emblems (L & R) for the Mustang this evening.

Still curious about the exhaust.. Anyone have a Magnaflow?

I used to have those. Sound clips are on my site. They droned a good bit cause they were magnapacks, but that was with 3.73's and an X pipe ..... but I did have the stock Y pipe configuration for a while, drone was tolerable then.
