Bye-bye my C32

I am moving on and have to say bye to my C32. She was a good technical school for me for last 6 years of internet browsing)))
I will still be visiting you guys here as I remain Supercharged)))
All the best.
Jack.

I love my C32. But I also like the power that my GT500 makes. It is a different type of ride and almost as fast as our SL55. That said the Shelby gets more attention than my other cars at every car show we go.

Sorry to see the C32 go but congratulations on the Shelby. It won't take much money to make some really big horsepower numbers with it.

Going back to manual was one of the reasons I traded my C32 in. Nice mustang.

Don't take the Rustang lightly. A modded 5.0 with a SC and 3.73 Posi-trac will easily walk many a MB, including the C63 and others. You can easily get +600 HP for about $5 K on the stangs. Look at www.roush.com

Congrats! I originally wanted to get the GT500, must have been '06? couldn't get a hold of one for close to list, so went with the C55 instead.
