I pretty sure that this car has sold already and the guy just didn't get around to taking the listing down so the search continues

That kit isnt the greatest. If you are looking at autox you need a way better setup. Something like Tokico adjustables, eiback pro kit, CC plates, Bumpsteer kit, full length subframe connectors, ect.

The V6 stang really is decent when setup correctly. Getting a power adder would be nice too.

I think I only paid like $600 for my tokico hps, steeda 3 bolt cc plates, and bumpsteer kit. Then another like $200 for my SFCs installed.

I don't know if I'm going to do any more to this car suspesion wise it has 140k on it and that means it could go another 100k or it could die next month.

It still runs very strong and doesn't leak or burn anything but you never know

If for some reason I did I would go fully adjustable coil overs and and SFCs

I like evos but subarus are so much more affordable at least around here

I know evos are faster and I really don't care

I am talking to my bank getting aproved for a loan for the subaru

I talked to my insurance company and got quoted at $1050 for 6 months for it and the mountaneer for full coverage.

If I can get the place to give the car to me for anything less than 7200 out the door I am going to take it

I'll play the you need to get me to drive all the way there card (4 hour road trip both ways for me and a friend)

I bet I can get it for somthing with a 6 in front of it.

Supercharge it. I've got 130,000 miles on my GT, doesn't burn oil or anything and runs strong. Do it, do it!
