I'm planning to sell the car off ASAP, I'm getting sick of it. For some reason it won't let me boost past 9psi but that's the least of my worries. I just want something different. I'm still saving up for a Supra but at the moment I'm looking to buy a Starlet GT as my next temporary car.

Now THAT's one sweet ride (Y)

Thanks man! That picture doesn't show the tint. I got the tint a month after I got the car. That was my first day with the new baby!

how come you got 35% tint? needs to be atleast 20% or 25% 

but that car is bad a$$ nice choice of cars

I would have loved to have 20-25%, but the law here in virginia says 35%. :(

Ordering a New 2005 Mustang GT Convertible in the next 2 weeks depending on delivery times, Black with a Black Top, Red Leather Interior. :yes:

Excellent point brother! The new stangs are sweeeet! You will love it.

Chorpeac Silver Stang = 1 BAD @$$ Automobile!!! 300 Horses of American Muscle!!!! and it pulls .89 G's in the skidpad!!!! :) That is a sweet color! You may have swayed me with the picture!!! (Just went back and saw the pic) I could be a silver Mustang Guy looking at that!!! Have you gotten a chance to open it up a little yet?

The only supposed change from the '05 to the '06 Stang GT's is that there may be a radio control button on the steerign wheel, I can take or leave that since i will be ordering another 5 speed. Too busy shifting to play with the radio!

Also xploit1030 Z4 is sweet, a nice touch of class!

Oh yeah, I love that silver color. I wish it were a little more metallic though. I heard they may offer a titanium colored on in 2006, which was the same color as the show car with the stripes. The silver is nice, but it could be a little more bright or metallic. I've opened it up plenty....it definitely throws you in your seat! Yeah the steering wheel function would be nice to have if I drove long distances, but since I am in traffic a lot, I shift more. It's not hard to reach to the ra:)o... :)

I need to clean it up and take another picture with the tinted windows....it'll look a little meaner. hahaha

if you didnt buy it supercharged than it isnt supercharged.  if you think vortec means the supercharger, then you are sadly mistaken.  the chevy vortec technology is a valve opening design that swirls the air coming in through the intake manifold and helps create a slightly denser and more balanced air/fuel mixture and helps with low end torque.  we own both a 2000 impala 3.8L v6 vortec and an astro AWD 4.3L v6 vortec (Both are top of the line... all options)  my family has only owned GMs since I was a little kid... me buying an import was like the first non GM to hit my driveway.

i mean, if you wanna know for sure, or you dont believe me or whatever, then go under the hood and start at the air box and trace the intake pipe all the way to the intake manifold.  if the pipe goes into a longish looking box with a belt coming off of it then that would be your supercharger and you would be obligated to post pictures of it here.

:blink:

Did you miss the part where I said I had a customization shop install it for me? Unless Whipple makes Vortec engines, then I'm possitive I have a supercharged 5.3L V-8 just as I said before. I know the difference. ;)

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features by Sayan Sen This past week Microsoft officially confirmed Windows 11 version 26H2 with the latest build, 26300.8697, for testing in the experimental Insider channel. The company also published more details about it mainly directed towards IT admins and system admins. Essentially version 26H2 will be delivered via an enablement package (eKB) over Windows 11 25H2. If you are wondering about some of the upcoming features in the next Windows version, one of them is certainly very interesting as Microsoft has confirmed it is finally bringing one of the most overwhelmingly requested features ever. March Rogers, the Partner Director of Design at Microsoft, recently highlighted some of the Search improvements that the company is testing, and during the interaction with users on X where he posted it, Rogers also confirmed that the company is working on disabling web search results inside Search. This is something which many users find quite annoying as Windows would often serve them links to Bing which it feels could be more helpful rather than bringing up the actual object or app the user may be searching for on their PC. Finally though the company is prioritizing local file search over the web. However the feature could not be disabled for many users as not all new features are immediately rolled out to everyone. Image via phantomofearth (X) Windows enthusiast phantomofearth who likes to dig deep into new builds uncovered the IDs you will need to enable these features. Using the following feature IDs the new Search-related features landing in Windows 11 26H2 can be used. Follow the steps below to enable the new Search experience on Windows 11 build 26300.8697: Download ViveTool from GitHub and unpack the files in a convenient and easy-to-find folder. Press Win + X and select Terminal (Admin). Switch Windows Terminal to the Command Prompt profile with the Ctrl + Shift + 2 shortcut or by clicking the arrow-down button at the top of the window. Navigate to the folder containing the ViveTool files with the CD command. For example, if you have placed ViveTool in C:\Vive, type CD C:\Vive. Type vivetool /enable /id: and press Enter. Restart your computer. If you change your mind and want to restore, repeat the steps above and replace /enable with /disable in the commands on steps 5 and 6. Delightedly and perhaps also expectedly, once you disable web search and other such bloat, the Windows 11 Search is said to get snappier as remarked by another Windows enthusiast Xeno.
