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.

Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception
Tue, 25 Sep 2012It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.
Ford bringing adaptive steering to the masses [w/video]
Thu, 29 May 2014Within the next year, Ford will offer a brand-new adaptive steering system (unimaginatively dubbed "Ford Adaptive Steering"), and this week, the automaker invited us out to its proving grounds in Dearborn, MI to get a taste for how its new setup works. In function, Ford's system doesn't greatly differ from the majority of other adaptive steering units already on the market from companies like Audi or BMW, but consider this: Ford will be the first non-luxury automaker to offer this technology, and uniquely, the whole system fits inside the car's steering wheel.
Ford's engineers have worked hard to create a system that can be tacked on to the company's full lineup of cars, trucks and utility vehicles, and says that the adaptive steering will be uniquely tuned for each specific vehicle. The automaker will not confirm exactly which vehicle will launch with this technology, but for the purpose of our preview, we tested the technology in a 2014 Fusion - a vehicle with already-good behind-the-wheel feel, one that the company says best demonstrates its current steering efforts.
Ford Q3 pretax profits drop to $1.18B
Fri, 24 Oct 2014Following positive third quarter financial results recently from General Motors, rival Ford took a tumble in Q3. The automaker posted pre-tax profits of $1.18 billion, compared to about $2.59 billion in Q3 2013, a drop of around 54 percent. Net income also suffered with $835 million made in the quarter, versus $1.272 billion last year, a decline of about 34 percent. The Blue Oval blamed the gloomy figures on three reasons in its release: "lower volume, higher warranty costs and adverse balance sheet exchange effects."
There were problems of one kind or another in practically every region. North America experienced higher warranty costs than expected, partially due to recalls. The sales volume for the quarter was 665,000 units, versus 725,000 in Q3 2013, and pre-tax results amounted to $1.41 billion versus $2.296 billion last year.
South America and Europe both posted worse pre-tax results than last year. On the bright side, European volume was up slightly to 321,000 vehicles, from 303,000 in Q3 2013. The Middle East and Africa also lost $15 million, but that was an improvement compared to the $25 million loss previously experienced in this region.
