my new car
i just bought the brand new 2011 mustang gt c/s (California Special) now i was just wondering if there are good mods the car that don't void warranty

On a brand new car be careful. To take full advantage of any mods you need a tune. If I am not mistaken ford can tell if you've tuned it and that voids your warranty for sure. You can get intakes that add some power without a tune. I say intake and exhaust is probably about all you can do and even that might be questionable. This is the whole reason I didn't buy a brand new one.

I see so basically i got to wait until warranty fades. I thought that might suck if i bought a new car but i saw it and had to have it. maybe if i talk to ford they may know some mods that dont void it.

Where ford dings you is the say they have to install them most of the time.

Dude, they're all good mods - tons of stuff to buy, but be careful. Dealers like to blame broken stuff on anyhting that's different.

If I recall Ford Racing or FRPP parts and roush parts if installed by an authorized dealer do not void warranty. Also, it's really a myth. SEMA actually covers any problems that may arise as long as the parts were properly installed by a mechanic. The problem is that manufacturers..in this case Ford, can't be bothered to go after the part manufacurer and just claim they won't honour thier warranty. Even though all 3 NA manufacturers have signed an agreement with SEMA saying they won't do that.

so it sounds like even if u do the mods right ford might try and stiff you. that sucks if its true

It all depends on your dealer.Have a chit chat with the dealer,and Ford tech you deal with,then go from there.Some are okey with it,some are not so okey with it.It's just a pick of the litter.
