Some pics of my fiancee's 07 GT.

I thought I would post some pictures of my fiancée's 2007 GT Premium. She bought it in March of 2010 with 6,900 miles on it at a Toyota dealership. It has the 5 speed manual in it. It currently has 16,115 miles on it. She doesn't drive it as much as she should.


I just washed it because we are taking it on vacation tomorrow and I don't think I've ever posted any pics of this car so here goes.

Here is a picture of the Ford Racing AB I bought on CL and installed a couple of years ago. Does anyone know which version this is?

Although I own a '14, the '05 - '09's are my favorite body style. Yours is so clean, great color, very low miles....you've got a gem. Good job.

You can't post pics of the fiancé' ride without posting pics of the fiancé

That's right ......


That's an '07, low miles, love the color and stripes! .... and looks like OEM Pirelli tires on it.


Just a heads up .... I bought an '08 last summer with low miles and OEM Pirelli tires too .... tires had date code 3107 .... 31st week 2007. No cracking at all .... then this Spring I was getting ready for a short trip to Charlotte and noticed there was some very small cracks in the bottoms of the tread grooves, no where else. We took it anyway, but I watched the tires close at stops. Last month I put some new Goodyear RS-As on it as the cracking had grown significantly. Still no cracking in sidewalls where you'd expect. Now I have 4 still good "tread" Pirellis with cracks in the tread grooves out back .... next landfill trip.

70monte, heed tbear853 advice above ^. He is spot on. Not only cracks but you can't see belt deterioration inside the tires either. There is a lot of 'legal, lawyer' stuff involved with the 6 year rule on tires but it is also quite accurate in many instances. Highway speeds are the #1 enemy of older tires.

Thanks for the heads up on the tires. They are the original tires. I will check them out. We are right outside Branson MO on vacation. It is a very nice car and is what got me interested in Mustangs in the first place. I've been a GM guy my whole life.

With all the GM recalls who can blame anyone for liking Mustangs??
Have fun!!

Plus I think the Camaro is ugly so it wasn't even a consideration.

I looked at the tires and did not see any cracks or anything unusual about them so maybe she is good for the moment.
