  1. 2018 GT PP1 Purchase, Thoughts?

    Actually I did and I put a picture of it in the thread. The question was rhetorical, I know it is bad. I did not start this thread to discuss my woes. I will just have to wait on a Mustang. J
  2. 2018 GT PP1 Purchase, Thoughts?

    The damage is over $20,000. Is that not very bad? It will not be my insurance company, it will be the person who hit me insurance. Yes, I will likely have to get another attorney for that. Not sure yet but in time I will hit them for diminished value. The car is ruined for my purpose. Nobody...
  3. 2018 GT PP1 Purchase, Thoughts?

    Thank you guys, each of you for your help. I have been studying Mustangs feverishly to get up to speed. Unfortunately, the insurace does not seem to be going to total my car. So, I will have the pain and aggravation of getting it fixed and selling/trading at a loss. Because I am not keeping it...
  4. 2018 GT PP1 Purchase, Thoughts?

    You are right, the MX-5 is meant for local zooming around. It is not a good road trip vehicle. The Mustang is a more practical machine, at least it can tote a full size suitcase. Sports cars I have owned/driven extensively: Triumph TR6 Mazda RX-7 (79 and 81) Fiat X1/9 Mustang SVO (1985.5)...
  5. 2018 GT PP1 Purchase, Thoughts?

    Yes, that is exactly part of why I do not want the higher trim, this car does not seem to be overly nannie-ized. I had some of it on my MX-5 but I could turn it off, with just warning lights on the dash which are annoying I suppose. So, the car I am looking at has the 4.2 inch display, standard...
  6. 2018 GT PP1 Purchase, Thoughts?

    I was on a rural road when the collision occurred, the speed limit is 55 not 70 there and on the interstate it is 75 here. I do have a motorcycle or two or three. Life long motorcyclist. Regardless of how well my little car stood up to the impact of a larger vehicle, I was inches from eating...
  7. 2018 GT PP1 Purchase, Thoughts?

    You know guys, these are the "last of the V8 interceptors" (Mad Max I think it was). The IC age is perhaps not at an end and as an engineer and mechanic I understand the realities of battery vs gasoline/diesel/Jet A energy density and there is no comparison. But, I had a brand new MX5 RF GT I...
  8. 2018 GT PP1 Purchase, Thoughts?

    Grainger has a similar Mustang to the one I am looking at except with auto and it is a 2018 with 13,000 miles priced at $36,988. So, they are selling new less than used? I was really wanting to understand options, positives and negatives of them, mechanical issues, things to look out for etc...
  9. 2018 GT PP1 Purchase, Thoughts?

    Yeah, I know. It is a mess now. But here is the KBB I think: LOL, North Virginia might as well be the moon. Most of the cars I come across are automatics or they have been ridden hard and put away wet even with low miles.
  10. 2018 GT PP1 Purchase, Thoughts?

    Thank you for the info. Unfortunately the car is at CarMax which will not generally haggle very much and they are wanting about 6K more than that. This given I was told by the Ford dealer new orders are a year out, the Mazda dealer (I had a MX5) is at least 6 months out and there are very few...
  11. 2018 GT PP1 Purchase, Thoughts?

    What is 401A please? The sound system is AM/FM single CD/MP3. The screen is the smaller screen (which I like). The MSRP was originally $40,385. The equipment group is 300A. As I said, I am not looking for the PP2 or the large screen system. The stereo sounds fine to my hearing damaged ears...
  12. 2018 GT PP1 Purchase, Thoughts?

    So then, what would a GT with the 5.0 and PP1 with the 19 inch wheels, summer tires run new? today If I could buy a new one, if there were any new GTs to be had? I do not want the PP2. I am old school and that seems to add a lot of electronic stuff I do not need.
  13. 2018 GT PP1 Purchase, Thoughts?

    Thank you. I plan to get the spoiler ASAP if I get the car. The issue is that a bad person ran two stop signs and decked me in my other brand new car, which was not a Mustang. So these things take time, may just have to buy it straight up.
  14. 2018 GT PP1 Purchase, Thoughts?

    Hello folks. I am looking at purchasing 2018 GT 6 speed manual with 4,000 miles on the clock, looks mint, looks new. Hauls axx too when I step on it. I have been reading in these forums and elsewhere but what should I look for? Yes, it has a clean history and I put it on a rack, super clean...
