yellow Mustang convertable "m8"
So going down bell after work last week a older guy and his bish were in a yellow convertable 5th gen mustang with grey racing stripes. I noticed he had custom plates and a few decals I've never seen. It had a roll bar type thing like the late 90's S series shelby mustangs did. It was a GT with duel exhaust, yet it had a few decals I never heard of or seen.
If I remember right, on the fenders it said either "venomator M8" or something like that. His license plate referenced the M8 as well. It seemed to be a special edition/line of mustangs. It didnt seem to be any faster then a regular GT....just a few visual ad ons. I cant find ish on this car. Anybody seen it or know about it? PS i do hate mustangs....just to throw that out there

Sounds like someone got spanked like a redheaded step child
... there's about 348,432 Custom edition Mustangs, Ford and aftermarket. Good luck in your quest. |

Im on a Mustang forum that I visit every so often. Ill ask them.
I personally like Mustangs and truthfully if my wife had bought a GT instead of her V6 I would have taken it and she would have bought the new car... |

I do, hence the thread. I take it you cared enough about it to look and post as well. Thanks tho C-grunt that'd be cool if you could find something out. I wiki'd it and google searched but nothing came up. I know people have their own editions and what not if a company slaps on a supercharger then call it their own special name. This didnt seem like that in the end. I dont see why some old doucher would throw on custom stickers that dont have any meaning or are a real company. Thats what confuzzled me. |

The M8 Mustang is a special edition with a limited edition eight cylinder W engine like used in the VW, excepted it's mounted upside down.

you heard wrong... the 6's are garbage cars no better than a Cavalier
GT's still kind of suck (and I'm a mustang fan). Personally, it's all about the 32v DOHC Cobra engines. Termi = win! I hope you're kidding. |

Nope, totally serious. They also had to install the fuel pump in backwards because of the inverse-g syphon effect encountered when installing an engine upside down (sometimes referred to as an "engine swap"). Interesting fact: turning the radio knob in the M8 clockwise decreases the volume.

Don't be silly... the M8 doesn't have blinkers. The M also stands for "Move-over!". They figure they've already warned you and blinkers would be redundant.

WRONG! The LT4 was a LT1 with better heads, cam, and a few other misc items: http://www.grandsportregistry.com/lt1vslt4.htm You are thinking of the LT5, which was a DOHC V8 built by Mercury Marine for the ZR1 Corvette back in the early 90's. The old ZR1 was a badass car for the time BTW. http://www.zr1netregistry.com/LT5tech.htm |

yes, I got the number mixed up. I had to look up pics of the LT5 to confirm that's the engine I've seen. Either way, there is one at the Pavs every now and then. Maybe I heard the guy incorrectly when I asked him about the DOHC but, I do remember him spouting off numbers that match your info as far as power.
