what you all think about GT mustangs??
thanks for you opinion
Since you didn't state the exact equipment on the car, I ran a KBB (Kelly Blue Book) figure for an automatic with standard equipment and 300 miles and came up with $30,410 retail, so the figures the dealer gave you look pretty good.

But check the car carefully to see if there is no hidden damage or signs of an accident...repaints, gouged wheels, uneven paint or mismatched stripes, uneven panets, etc..... When you drive it, check it for straight tracking and even alignment, and make sure there are no unreasonable shimmies in the steering or brakes (with a convertible, particularly a domestic one or a Toyota Solara, a small amount of body flex and steering wheel shake over bumps is normal). The car may be have that slightly lower price for a reason....and insist on a CARFAX report.

Plus, the rear suspension comes off a 16th century, horse-pulled wagon.
It is "cool" though, and somewhat likable, despite the fact that it's a pretty rubbish car.
Do you need 4 doors like you had with your ES?
Do you prefer FWD like you had with your ES? (Florida weather - You probably don't need AWD/4WD.)
Do you engage in autocross or SCCA activities?
Do you need something that can pull a trailer for your bike(s)?
How many folks do you typically carry with you on a daily basis?
Tell us a little about your lifestyle and automobile requirements...

no preference really with FWD RWD
I only drive on paved roads
no hauling for me
if i get the mustang i really have good reasons not to let people ride with me
tell you the truth, the only reason i am considering this coupe is because the price of a new 06 with 300miles
thanks

Someone said they're not that reliable, but I don't think they're any less reliable than the average car. You'll definitely pay a lot less to fix one than a Lexus, and since it will still have a warranty, reliability shouldn't be a huge concern anyways. Even though it was just a rental I got a lot of compliments on the Stang, maybe even more than I got on my GS even though the GS is a much more expensive car (at least it was when it was new)
Someone said they have no practicality, but unless you have a wife and kids, it's got more than enough practicality for the average young, single guy.
If I were you, I'd get a used Vette (I have to admit I'm biased), you can get a nice C5 convertible for that money or even a C6 coupe if you spend a little more. The Stang would be a fun car though
I went into the dealer to get my Miata on New Year's Eve at 5:30p.m. Got a goood deal.

I am with you here, an Used vette is a very good buy, and you are in a different league!
30K can give you sooo many choices.
thanks for you opinion
Have you considered this car below? It will dust a Mustang for sure.. There are leftover puppies at your local Pontiac dealer. The LS2 v8 has excellent gas mileage.

As for the Mustang GT, i'm a fan of the 05+ GT's. I would not own one, but my brother does. It's a fun car...
