***** The Mustang has been sold *****

I have decided to sell the Mustang. 

I am the second owner since around 9000 miles.  I bought it from Lee Jarmon Ford in 1993.  The car is in excellent condition.  You will be hard pressed to find another Mustang from this generation in the same shape. It really is a must see.  No bodywork and body stickers have been preserved.  You will find matching VIN stickers on each body panel.  All electronics work!

It has modifications but has been treated well all of its life.  Look at the door jamb and gas cap door pictures below for proof.  You will not find years of grim and dirt build-up!  Every time I wash the car, the jambs get cleaned!!

If owning a factory original Mustang is something you desire, it could easily be returned to stock since and the aftermarket parts sold at a profit.

– Performance & HP –

Horspower: 510 (Can be tuned for much more.  I run a very conservative tune.)
Weight: 3200lb’s (no driver)
Elapsed Time: 11.62
MPH: 124
60′: 1.85
Launch RPM: 2000 (Easy launch, I didn’t want to abuse the car)

 

 

 

I took the bimmer to Dallas Raceway (1/4 mile). I ran a best of a 13.2 @ 102. I’m not happy with the MPH but it was very hot and humid. I have since read that it’s best to shift at 6500 RPM. I was letting it shift on it’s own in sport mode at 7000 RPM. I am happy with the ET and surpirsed I pulled a 1.95 60′ on 20,000 mile on run flat tires. The 335i doesn’t come with a posi either so single wheel peel it is.

I went on a trip to England/Belgium/Germany and took the opportunity to drive on the Nurburgring. Here are the links.

I really didn’t see the need to spend $100 on for a NPP exhaust controller for my Z06.  I grabbed a kit wireless relay controller at Auto Zone and created my own.  I have removed this since I can now control external relays with my Kenwood system but it’s still an easy and cheap modification.  Click here for more information.

I created a write-up on how to install a DNX8120 into a C6 Corvette.  Click here for the article.
