Guess I wont sell it. Although, this may be replaced with a C7Z. I can't stand the idea of this having less power than the Mustang and a lot less than the Evo. Plus, if I do get rid of the Mustang and Evo, I will be left with only automatics. So, C7Z is definitely on the table, and the weather...
I think a misconception is that I want money for the mods, or that I think mods add value. I've literally said that built and boosted Mustangs are worth nothing, and that there always tons of them for sale cheap.
I said my problem is comprehending the idea of getting rid of a car of a certain...
This would not change anything. The car wouldn't be any faster on a low boost setup, maybe past 100 MPH and still more fragile, and I'd lose my 8500 RPMs. RHD conversion would make the car a new experience.
My thing isn't losing money per se. If I sell the Mustang at market value after having...
Never losing money on a GT-R unless you unwittingly buy one with covered up rust issues or a bad engine.
See, the thing with the Stang is that if I sell it, I can't get another car with those specs for the money, not that I won't get my money out of it. Locally, minimum for an S550 GT is 20K...
In regards to last two posts, I have literally said the value isn't there, that is literally the title of the thread.
I'm really considering an R33 GT-R. I'll get to tax for every dollar I put into it, and it will be normalized because "Skyline GT-R"
It'd be something different.
In terms of keeping the Mustang, it's the only thing I could do to make it interesting to own at this point. I'm sure I'd also have the only RHD Mustang in the whole country. Getting a set of those 8-4-1 headers would also be an idea.
Unfortunately, ain't no RHD...
You know, my dislike of driving isn't because the car sucks to drive. I just literally hate driving on the highway because nothing is more boring. I actually LOVE driving the Mustang when I do.
I was using it as a situation most here would be familiar with. Most people that had done these...
You know, part of the reason for this is that I absolutely hate driving long distance. An hour on the interstate is a chore to me. It's so mind-numbing.
Also, a sound system is useless in my car because the exhaust looks like this:
I'll clean it up and go to Cars and Bids. lol.
You can...
Probably because after 8 years, there is literally zero else to do to it to make it interest me.
718 GTS comes in 6. Just the older ones have a 6 in the base cars. Older gen or 718 4cyl is not an option. I just bought this C43 a few months ago and considered Caymans at that time as well. As I...
I want to get rid of my GT because there is nothing to do with it. I've had it a long time, and in the last 2 years, I've done 3000 miles. However, in terms of getting something to replace it, the market seems to be rough for these cars, because there are just so many of them for sale at a given...
Welp.
Went to Japan twice since this post just got back yesterday. The first time my JAF translation wasn't done in time, and the second time, at the license office, they VERY recently added a step of needing a reservation to show your paperwork, which wasn't the case previously, and that put...
As I've said, been there, done that. It definitely felt its age. You gotta remember it's a 30 year old car that was never known for reliability when new, gets driven every day by anyone from anywhere, who drives any way they feel.
Secondly, it's not about a Mustang. A Mustang is the last car I...
Damn.
Going to Japan again, been a few times, and want to ship my GT for an October trip, but Jesus fuck it seems like insurance is going to be impossible to get.
I have quotes for shipping and quotes for a Carnet de Passages en Duane, but I can't get anything on insurance. I'm leaving Oct 4...
I think this does it.
So, the previous time this happened, 4th of July last year, I was on a trip to Louisiana. Lost the clutch pedal on the Natchez parkway in Jackson Ms, and drove clutchless to Natchez Ms, about 2 hours, and had to have it fixed at a Ford dealer.
Last night, pedal raises...
