I believe that is " Kar -Toyz " and if you want to go really cheap just have your mommy put an extra layer of baby oil on your seat before you go out and drive. LOL

Oh I saw that article online I am disappointed in SRT. They didn't tame the viper enough. I still like the look better but the c7 may take it. They said the seats are extremely firm and inside of it viewing sucks so I am a little key down by the car. It may be one of those cars that are just fun to look at rather than own. At least my mclaren never let's me down

Recovering the seats would probably render the side airbags unusable.   Most companies would not take on that liability.

This is my take on the int of the new GT500...There's not a damn thing wrong with it!!!!!...this is the one Mustang that I can say came from

the factory not needing much of anything except being lowered...Ford hit the nail on the head with this one JMHO.

Shelby does it. Though they use katkinz leather which is not THAT much of an improvemet in quality of materials.

Yes this is right. As right now it seems my car will have to go back to stock UCA and adjustable panhard bar because my dealership is giving me soooooooo much headache and won't fix my backlash problem.
