Antifreeze - Make sure the level is full and the mixture is close to 50/50.Â
Check your tires - The old penny test is as reliable as anything to find out whether your treads are ready for winter action. Also, be sure to check your tire pressure. Believe it or not, they lose a little pressure when it gets cold.
Wipers -  In areas that see snowfall in the winter, you’re also driving through that soupy muck that’s left on the road once the highway department does their thing. This muck includes a lot of sand and salt, both of which end up on your windshield. It takes wipers that are in top shape to keep your windshield clean and safe.
Wiper Fluid - A mile stuck in winter traffic will have your windshield looking like a Desert Humvee if you’re low on washer fluid. *Tip: Don’t fill your washer fluid reservoir with anything except washer fluid, it won’t freeze!
Battery - Starting a cold car takes alot out of a battery. Check it to make sure you’re not stuck on the side of the road or in a parking lot.

If you own the GT500, you can have this car and all it’ll cost you is an extra $28,000. The super Snake pumps out 605 bhp. 50 more than the GT500KR(King of the Road).
Here are just some of the goodies that your car will recieve:
Fiberglass hood with functioning scoop
New front fascia with additional brake cooling ducts
Carbon fiber front splitter and rocker panels
Choice of closed out windows or body colored side scoops
Matte black stripes
Larger braakes with 6 piston calipers
Adjustable shocksÂ
Stiffer springs to go with a bigger anti-roll bar

You can have a blower installed that will push the HP number up another 120hp. think you can handle it. That’s alot of car.

You should check your oil about once a month between oil changes. Park your car on level ground and turn off the engine. Remove the dip stick wipe it off , put it back in and pull it out again and see where the oil registers. It should come up to the cross on the dip stick that is a safe range. The reason you pull it out the first time and put back is when the engine is running it will splash oil on the dip stick and won’t give you a true reading.
While you have the hood up check the wind shield wiper fluid. Look  for a plastic cap that says washer fluid, open it up and if you can’t see any, (Go to you local auto parts and get some it usely costs any where from 3- $5.00 depending on the brand you by.) fill it up to the top. This way you know it ’s full.
Check the break fluid. This container is mounted on the firewall,which is the wall behind the engine. This container will be on the same side as the steering wheel. If you look really close you can see a full line (don’t go over it). You can get the break fluid at the local auto parts also.
Now to check the coolent for your engine. Look for a container that says coolant on the cap, this too will have a line on the side of it. One line will say full when hot and the other will say full when cold .Depending on whether or not your engine is hot or cold will depend on how much you should put in it.
