That's an awesome idea.
I'm getting itchy. I'm thinking of listing my GT and trying to hop into a 350 sooner vs later. I'm sitting on parts that are new that I've never installed either (Brembo kit, Corsa exhaust etc). Time to start selling and pull the trigger I think.
I tend to be firm regarding a car. So when they pull the, "What would you like to pay per month" BS, I usually ask what the total cost of ownership is over 36 months. My thing is staying fairly quiet until we get to finance. Then, I'm laying out my own pre approval rates etc.
There's definitely...
I keep coming back to that as that being my best bet. Idc about traveling. That's half the fun. And worst case, I can throw it on a transport carrier too.
I also really don't want to deal with the typical dealership bs, either. That's why I went to CarMax for my GT. Not because I thought I'd...
I'm actually trying to time it for when my dad gets his. He has a 19' GT and we're both thinking of grabbing a 350.
I've thought about flying down to him in FL and grabbing one there then driving back to MA
That would acrualy be awesome. If I see anything near MA I'd do that for sure.
I'm in no rush. I'm still planning on next year or the one after like in my prior post. I just have that 350 itch that my GT can't scratch lol
What's odd is that CarMax is priced similarly to the dealers in my area.
There's an 18 30 mins south of me going for 50k and a 17' 20 mins north going for 51k.
I could get a 17 through CM for 46-48k with similar options and mileage. It's odd lol
Thanks for the replies.
I actually bought my GT through CarMax and traded my old one in for a good price. It was smooth and I was considering them again.
The only thing that made me skeptical is that right off the jump, I knew I needed a new control arm/tie rod when I bought the GT. I always...
Like the title says. How did everyone go about buying a used 350?
I've been looking at CarMax (I've had good experiences prior) Cargurus etc but I'm somewhat skeptical about going back that route for the 350. What complicates it for me is that I'm only interested in specific colors and features...
Thanks for the detailed reply. I figured I was good but then I started second guessing myself after reading threads about having to flash back to stock etc.
My state inspection is coming up and this is my first one in MA since they've cracked down on mods/emission standards.
I still have my cats and I'm assuming that PBD didn't turn off my O2 sensor with the tune.
That being said, anyone in MA have any issues with mods and passing?
I'm good...
I'm looking for the following. Condition isn't a big concern of mine, either. Black is preferred but I'm open to other colors as well.
I can meet halfway, too.
Forgestar CF5V: Black (Gloss/Matte)
