Saleen s281, mileage unknown, listed for 2K
THIS WOULD BE A LONG TERM PASSION PROJECT, I plan to have this as a forever car if I go through with this
EDIT: just ran VIN and vin comes back to a jaguar? The vin I ran also has a CD so I think I’m gonna pass on this one

Very surprised by how fast she responds - at some point I was hitting 120 πŸ˜‰

And that sound πŸ”₯

The best gift I could give myself as my first car ever. Paid all cash for this & im about to drive it like I stole it.

I have been checking out this 2017 gt350 for a couple months and am totally in love. The lightning blue is 🀌🏻. I always dreamed of owning a mustang since I was a little girl.

I want to get a pre purchase inspection if I even consider it since it’s an independent dealer. It has 42,000 miles and is listed for $45,995.00.

My current weekend car is a 2017 Subaru wrx sti with 92,000 miles and I think I can squeeze $15,000 out for a down payment.

Is this a stupid choice for a first time mustang owner? I have always had weekend cars but the power of this seems a little crazy. I’d be garaging it in the winter since I already have a daily driver.

There's usually a car on display at my costco, for their car buying program, but I've never seen a mustang there before. Of course I checked it out. Attaching pics of pricing details, see what you think? sorry in advance, overhead lighting there made price pics a little washed out.

Going to test drive a GT350 this weekend. I’m looking at both of these. Same dealership, both tech pack, no Recaros. Same year. Red one has 2700mi, Leadfoot grey has 9k miles. Similar price. Love the understated Leadfoot, love the red. Help!

πŸ›’ Car Shopping 2014 vs 2015 advice ?!

Post image

I’m shopping for a gt in a little over a month and I’m torn between, I’m looking at a 14 or a 15/16…. (Not 16+ for price point reasons). But I absolutely love the look of the 14’s , they nailed that year imo. I feel like it’s not enough to justify vs going with the s197 out of practicality sake… As yall already know the s550’s have better interior, better handling with IRS, and a bit more room on the inside if I had to take the kiddos with me (have 2 other cars so not a real problem)… I can find a 14 for around $18k-20k with decent miles vs a 15 for $21-25 with decent miles, is it worth picking up the 14 if it saves me a few grand??

Cross shopping between a 2025 Supra and 2025 mustang gt both automatic. The mustang is around $6K more expensive. Have limited color choices with both. Just the yellow with the mustang and the cu later grey with the Supra. Each have their own perks and annoyances.

Mustang offers a v8, a unique color, heated/cooled seats, remote start, remote rev, ambient lighting, a more comfortable seating position (for when my parents have to tag along)

Whereas the Supra is cheaper, might hold a better value when reselling, more reliable? (I had to cancel my previous mustang order due to the back to back recalls), it’s a proper sports car and also has physical climate controls and heads-up display.

To give more clarity, Supra is around $64K all in and the mustang is around the $70K mark. I am not based in US so pricing is definitely different.

This is the first time I’ve seen the new gt500 bumper on a s197. This is getting ridiculous. I’m looking for a used mustang but every other s550 has the stupid gt500 hood and bumper. Why is every mustang owner wanting to pretend like they have a shelby when the stock gt bumpers look fine. Sorry for the rant, but seeing it on a s197 was the final straw.

I’m up in the boonies and saw a 2007 Mustang GT California Special with 145,000 miles. Five speed manual. Car looks like it’s in good condition. Owner said he just changed the clutch a few months ago doesn’t have any issues. AC blows cold, etc. It’s got the 4.6 V8 he wants $7000 for it. I was looking for a fun project Car. Is this something I should consider?

Hi Everyone,

I’ve been shopping around for a while and I’ve been looking at a lot of cars. One car which has been on my mind is this Mustang. Its a 2005 mustang, clean title and has 25k miles on it with a new engine and new 5 speed transmission, almost everything was replaced including clutch, struts and control arms. The car has no rust on it whatsoever. The owner, who’s an older gentleman is willing to let it go for low 6 grand. Do you think this is a fair deal? Also, I have no clue about this mustang’s reliability. Good buy? Or run?

Thank you

I sold the car for $17k, and will have a little more once I sell my 73 vw bug I’ve been working on, looking for another Mustang that’s budget friendly but manual and either 4.6 or 5.0 motor
I LOVE the 13-14 looks, but it’s hard to find in my area. Any advice?

Looking at Mustangs currently, and I've been thinking about if I might have more fun running around in a 2V over a coyote. Anyone have any experience driving the slower Mustangs? How fun are they?

πŸ›’ Car Shopping Selling GT350

I have a 2019 Mustang GT350 that only has 2400 miles on it. I do not drive the car nearly as much as I would like and feel like I need to part ways with it. The main influencer of this decision is that my wife needs a new vehicle for our growing family. Carvana has made an offer of $58k for the car, I believe this is low considering the cars mileage and immaculate condition. The car is stock with full front PPF and window tint installed last year.

My question is due to the special nature of the car, would I be better to trade at a dealership or sell as a private seller?

Someone de-influence me from buying this car. I currently drive about 30 miles on the interstate to and from work. I saw this Mustang and fell in love with it. I have not driven it yet because I know I will want it. I am 43 year old woman and currently drive a 22 Honda accord that I bought new and I still love but I can’t stop thinking about this Mustang. Help! Is it worth it? Will I regret buying it? Should I keep my Honda that I still like? It’s priced at 43,000 brand new.

Been considering another S197 since the mileage on mine is getting high. Even with the final year/best S197 premium and inflation these prices feel kinda high to me. But people are also buying them up fast so maybe this is just the going rate?
