    Default Got my new car

    yup not another mitsu but an 05' mustang its the 6 cylinder model because the gt was a 6 month wait and 20k more for an additional 85 hp :? so im getting a crate motor put in so the car will make 400 hp that should be good enough for me.

    And it's 90 more hp and 80ft/lbs of tq, and only about a $5500 dollor difference not $20,000. I can see not wanting to wait though, special ordering new cars sucks ass.

    Did you get the "premium" package with the shaker sound system and stuff?

    whoa the salesman told me it was 40k for the gt!?!??! :evil: pos. Well thats typical. the difference in price is about the cost of the motor swap.

    Good move!, I would have bought the cheapest one they had on the lot, and asked if they would give me credit if I brought back the engine, trans, and interior in a week!
    Its not too much power......its not enough tire!!

    I talked to the service department and he said they install them then they have to be reported to dmv with the new info. But if the gt is only 5-6k more then I might as well trade it in then start modding the 300 hp model to 400, which would be cheaper. I have to hold it for a certain amount of time to come out even where trade in is close to what I owe, maybe disconnect the speed sensor and stay at 75 miles for a while. :twisted:

    oh unless he was talking about this one, the shelby gt not the regular gt. I'm sure i'll loose around 4k hopefully no more than that, but oh well lesson learned. http://kbb.com/kb/ki.dll/ke.kb.sp?kb...toshow/2005/pc
