07 Alloy GT. 5pd, IUP, Comfort package, dark charcoal interior, Sat radio, polished wheels. 7,200 miles for $24,200. The only option it doesnt have that I wanted was the charcoal woven panel. It has the satin which I can live with. Pics soon.

To be honest I think you paid just a little to much.I Paid the same for my 07 back in Mar 07 and i have a few more options. But it is still a really nice ride! Enjoy

Yeah I dont think the deal was a steal for either side. He has to drive it about 150 miles to drop it off to ship out. So I had to deal with that. Plus in my area that car is $25,000 or $26,000 depending on which book you use. $500 dollars is worth my time to try and find a car with all the options I wanted.

Alloy is an interesting color IMO. I would like to see one in differents shades of light after it has been Iced with Ice. It really brings out the metallic.
Congrats on the new ride!

Thanks. I'm pretty excited cause I found one with the options I wanted. I was tired of looking every day in cities everywhere and every autotrader.com, ebay and craigslist posting. I think the car looks more sleek without the hood scoop. That was hard to get rid of.

Very nice car! I think the price was a little high but you cant really put a price on a car especially over only a few bucks if its exactly what you want. Good luck

Definately +1 on the Alloy. I didn't even know they made such a color until I stumbled on it by accident. I was sold immediately. At the time, they couldn't find an alloy one with the polished rims that I wanted within the entire state of texas.

I feel for ya on the 150 mile drive. They drove mine 230 miles to have it delivered and then tried to weasel out of the X-plan since the odometer had over 250 miles on it.

I did the clay bar treatment on mine, followed by a coat of the Ice. That synthetic wax really make the metallic pop. The metallic contains lots of colors that had never been seen prior. I stood in the parking lot with a dumb look on my face for quite some time looking at all the pretty colors.

I think that sounds about right for a car with that mileage. Big variable is location. According to autotrader.com, the current average list price for a 2007 GT Coupe with under 15k miles is just over $25,330, but that obviously includes ones with no options, and a few CS's and one Shelby GT. I capped the search at $33k to eliminate the GT500s, Roushs, etc. and put a floor of $10k to eliminate wrecks. If you include leather in the search, the average jumps to $25,556. The cheapest one though was a VB 2007 GT with 7250 miles selling for $19,250. I wonder what is wrong with it...

Bottom line: If you are happy with it, then you did awesome! Great color choice by the way...

Alloy is the best Mustang color available! Nice work.

I also have an alloy '08... and love the way it looks with black wheels and the chrome outline. Such a nice combination.

I also have the charcoal dash applique... which also looks very nice with the color combo.

Get some silver stripes and that car would turn heads at every corner!

PS- get some louvers for the 1/4 panel windows. That would look good.

The plan for the car is some foose nitrous wheels. 1/4 window covers and some type of ducktail spoiler. But that stuff wont happen all at once.
