Ok guys, so as some of you may remember, I've been looking for a 99-04 GT 5 speed.


Well, I think I found it finally.
2000 Mustang GT, 5 speed, no leather, black exterior

Also, I already have a VIS Carbon fiber hood, rear deck lid, and moroso hood pins, and an Alpine head unit for it.

THE GOOD:
46,000 miles
1 owner
EASY miles, this guy couldn't rag on it if he wanted to
Garage kept
NO dents
NO scratches
Rear tires have never been swapped (same tires that came on the car from the factory are still on the rear, fronts were swapped after alignment issues wore them, and alignment was fixed)
Mach 460 sound system
BONE STOCK. (BIG plus to me.)

The Bad:
$8,500 FIRM. I offered him $7,800, but he said no way. Do you guys think it is worth it? Seems like a lot for an 8 year old car, but damn, it could have rolled off the showroom yesterday and couldn't look any better.

Thats actually A great deal, I'd say go for it, in fact I paid $12k for my 2000 GT with 59K miles last year but that's what I get for buying it from Carmax, The one good thing is that price included a 3 year warranty.

In the b&w pic shown above you can tell the car has been garage kept ..the headlight lenses are still shiny instead of the usual cloudiness seen on an 8 year old car. (unless he replaced headlights but doubt it)

Day I brought car home from dealership:

Yeah guys, I can't express how clean it is.

It still has the same rear tires as the day it rolled out of the factory.

And the trunk shocks are still stiff like the day it rolled out of the factory.

And the interior is still spotless, never smoked in like the day it rolled out of the factory.

Need I go on? It's like a 2000 Mustang GT that was made in 2008!!

I should be going to pick it up Thursday or Friday, I'll post pics of it stock and after I get my parts on.

Not on my carbon fiber trunk!! NO WAY!

LoL. I would never drill into a nearly $700 trunk. I already have to pay Whiplash Motorsports to do my hoodpins!


It does look SICK all the way back though.

Lol, yeah, if I was leaving the factory trunk lid on there, I'd be all over it for sure. But like I said, I got all that tasty carbon fiber to throw on. I'm actually on myspace right now getting some helping hands so it goes faster, haha.

Tell him you will do $8200. Since you will have to replace the rear tires.
Plus those cloth seats really suck!
