About to go insane..
I swear, there are a TON of clean GT's in my area, or within 100 miles.. I can not find ONE Manual Vista blue, anywhere! Have they all dissapeared? Where are they? lol
I really don't want to compromise, but there are 05-06 GT's with less than 50k going for $14-16k all over the place. What should I do? Wait and keep saving money? |
wait...save...
|
Yeah, that's pretty much where I'm at. I guess I'll just keep my car on the market and try to sell it outright, but I haven't had any bites on it and the trade-in value isn't getting any better.. lol
|
shit....I cant even sell my damn car...still...(not taking away from the R/T...but...)
I think Im just gonna keep it for a while... |
Wait for the 010s start coming off the show room floor...everyone with a S197 is going to be trading theirs in. Haha

But mine's a funless-auto that I got cause I live in a city that's really annoying to drive a manual around all the time in, and you know what... I don't really mind it... I sure as shit miss revving to 6000 and dropping the clutch though.... that was a rip :) Oh yea, and vista blue is sex... |

Oh, and BTW: It's down to Vista Blue, Red Fire or Silver if that's my only option. |
Silver's a waste.

Um, the blue. I had that choice, but the red is just so... red....
the new mustangs don't have nearly enough lines to pull off red. that stratus is hella nice for 78k miles. |

I actually really like my Stratus, but it's just not what I want and truthfully I won't be sacrificing much fuel mileage to switch to a V8. I only get about 22-23MPG in the Stratus even taking it easy. The newer Mustang should be able to match that in 5th gear cruising and a majority of my driving is on the interstate. |
silver is awful
|
i love silver....but i wish i had a black or blue.

Have you ever been in an s197? It's millions of miles apart from the sn95... Only real downside is it feels more powerful, but it feels as if it's pulling another 400 pounds. You can definitely tell it has more horsepower than the 99-04 GT's. It's handling more than makes up for it though. It handles SO well, i swear it handles just as good as my friend's 350z (stock for stock).
And about silver. It's alright, just not my cup of tea. I looked at a loaded 06 GT mustang that was gray, and I thought it was the grossest mustang I've ever seen. Get a vista or sonic blue mustang. If you do so happen to get red, make sure you put some white/black accents on it to break it up.... But the manual is a must. I miss the shit out of it. I say you can't really go wrong with ANY color s197 except the baby blue. You're gonna love the new car, and you're gonna have a smile every time you press the gas. |

My Fiance' has an '05 Sixxer, I know from driving my old Sixxer that the improvement in that platform is unbelievable. One of my old friends had a '96/97 T-Bird with the 4.6 and her little 4.0L walked it with no problem. lol The ONLY think I don't love about the 197's is how big they are, but I need the room. I'm about 6'4" and really need the extra leg room. |
The thing about the S197, as soon as you get it you'll see the 010s+ appearing and you're going to be hit with that 1-upped sense because of how much of an improvement those cars are over the 05-09 models (jk guys :P). You wouldn't have that sense in an SN95 because they're so old and different no on even cares. lol

The only upgrade on the '10s is the interior. I do like the fact that they are a little smaller kind of in-between the 197's and the SN95's, but that's it. :)

Woohooo! So what does that mean, bilstein shocks/struts and lowering springs? lol Definitely not worth the extra $15k that they will be when they hit the dealership.
CAI + Tune = same HP. :D besides you said that there was nothing different which is clearly wrong |
Get a legend lime gt that's it forget the vista

Totally agree. Why not get an 03/04 mach or Cobra. I bet you get a decent deal on a mach....... Much faster than an 99-04 GT and a little faster than an 05+ GT. Plus it will seperate you from every other mustang around. |
