    Well tomorrow is the BIG day!!!

    Rich, Agreed. One thing to watch for that makes me really mad. I've purchased several new vehicles recently (replacing the 3-5 year old fleet) and they ran my credit at each dealership, even though I paid cash for two of them. Now I have multiptle inquiries (two with no corresponding...

    what would you pay for a 2010 gt with...

    I would say offer $25k and see what they do. Again I just paid what they are asking for a brand new one. If you can't get them to move on this one, maybe look at a new one. The rebate is $3K right now also, maybe more if you finance through FMCC. I paid cash. Make sure it drives right...

    professional detailing, worth it IMO

    It does make a difference. I had the same issues on the '07 I had briefly. I spend $100 and got the professional detail. Big difference. Unfortunately, it is gone now. My black 2010 will only be hand washed. No brushes on it!

    Pics of my 2010 GT

    I need to get some pics. So far, I only have a few on my crappy old cellphone and it is sitting beside my F-150, so it is hard to see any detail. I love it so far! I spent an hour one night this weekend playing with the ambient lighting trying to decide what color combos I wanted.

    what would you pay for a 2010 gt with...

    Mods don't count for anything on a trade, so I would say the same retail. That is why most people remove them before trading/selling. I paid that for a brand new loaded 2010 GT Premium (MSRP $35K) that looks just like the one in your pic, but no Roush products. It is stock for now and had 5...

    Ordered a 2011 Stang Soon:) Need Help!

    The dealership I buy at has a ton of 2010 V-6s on the lot. Now that the 2011 V-6s are hitting, I'm sure those 2010 V-6 models will go at fire sale prices. They only have a few 2010 GTs left, so I don't think they will give them away. This is a good opportunity for someone who is looking...

    General question about S197 Mustangs

    Be very careful too. I've learned this. I bought an '07 with 25K miles and it had all sorts of issues. That said, if you are going to mod it and make it a racer, then mine would have been fine for you. I now have a new 2010 and there really is no comparison in build quality and structural...

    ABS brakes and pad wear

    I was just gong to say TCS. I'm sure controlling the wheel spin is harder on the brakes than normal use. I had a 2003 that, no lie, made it over 80K on the original brakes.

    The GT 500

    Well the rumor, and it is just that, a rumor at this point, is that the F-150 will be going to the 6.2 in place of the 5.4 in the near future. I would imagine the GT 500 would follow suit.

    2014 Mustang

    Why is everyone so hung up on IRS? Have you seen a high HP car with IRS afer 5 years? Most need shocks, springs, you name it. I don't mind the sold axle. They have come a long way since my first Mustang and I enjoy driving them.

    Put the Flowmasters on today

    Yeah, I miss that dark tint on my '07. The new 2010 has legal tint, darn it! But, don't have to worry about tickets now.

    Rear Gear HELP!!!!

    Good point gman. The old car has the stock 17" wheels and the 2010 has 19". I pulled up the sticker on the old GT. Wow how times have changed in three years. The sticker was $7K less for a GT Premium in '07!

    How much under sticker did you pay for 2010?

    I traded for 2010 this week. All together, with rebates, $7.5K off sticker, plus $2K more than I paid for my trade. Very fair deal and I won't even get close to $27.5K for a loaded premium 2011 premium GT (2010 MSRP $35K)

    Rear Gear HELP!!!!

    So I have a question. I was told that the '07 I had was equipped with the 3.73 gears. It was much quicker off the line than most 05-08 Mustangs. However, I just picked up a new 2010 and the 3.73 gears were added on the sticker as an option. But, the two do not drive the same. The '07 had a...

    Need feedback regarding mustang dealership

    Mike, This is a great idea. BTW, where in Texas? The problem is, in big city dealerships anyway, is there is too much going on to focus on one make and model. And, the parts departments like to mark everything up 300% or choose not to sell the parts at all. If you can make it happen...

    Buy this 07 GT or wait?

    Yes, be very careful checking out that '07 with 35k. Mine only had 25K and already had issues. I think the previous owner drag raced it and put it back to somewhat stock. It still had the PYPES exhaust and a tuner. But there were way too many issues for a car with that low mileage. I ended...

    2011 V6 in the 13's?

    It is crazy. I remember thinking my 77 1/2 Trans Am Bandit car was the baddest thing in the world in High School. I was killing all the new 83-85 camaros and Trans Ams. I didn't realize how wimpy thier HP numbers were. I think mine was 225-250 with the 6.6 T/A engine. I think the new TAs...
