Thats the stupidest reference to ricer I have ever heard of??? The paint looks better than stock, hood pins are mandatory on fiberglass fox body hoods unless u want the hood to fly up on the highway, & the clear lights look clean & they arent the crystal diamond clear ricer style...

yes and no. the sticker says something like that. but fit owners get anywhere from 25-50+ based on their driving style/habits.

50mph in fifth gear = 50.xx mpg.

I have a couple friends with them, they get 34mpg consistently.

good car for what it is, but it doesn't get 50mpg, I don't care what the obc says at no load on a downhill grade in 5th gear with a tailwind...

what's there to argue about when it's just facts? I've gotten 25mpg in both of my mustangs driving from SF to LA and back, multiple times, just on the freeway doing 90mph on cruise, nothing special about maintaining speed in a straight line [Confused]

But that doesn't make them 25mpg cars, they both get 18mpg on most tanks.


I mean shit, the average person who keeps track of their gas mileage on the Government's fuel economy website seems to show them as being a 31mpg car...

Thanks dan, yea it was alot of work, but well worth it. I just wanted to post up a couple pictures of it cause cafords supplied alot of parts/information/and help to get it back where it should be. And to "delsolbrother" can you please make your own thread if you have anything more to say, you said your opinion and leave it at that.

p.s. Good looking totalkaos92

here's my fit. i usually average 38 MPG. my best was 41, and my worst was 34 [Big Grin]

I thought you were seein' 50 MPG! Cool car, I bet you just rail through the corners and twisties in that thing.
And also I'm going to go change my hood/headlights/slicks and take the hood pins off, beacause now that i see what you drive your opinion really counts. [Big Grin] [Big Grin]
LMAO!!! [Eek!]

VERY clean GT, i like your dedication to the car, reminds me of my older 5.0 i use to have which WAS basically kept in immaculate condition.

Over 9/10 - Losing 1 points because you don't have the Cafords.com sticker on the quarters [Smile]

ON EDIT : Only thing i think that is lacking is the interior.. Go with Black interior [Big Grin]

I see no difference in an import with a carbon fiber hood that doesn't need it and a mustang with a cowl induction hood that doesn't need it. Both are rice.
