What makes them better than 11&12s? I hear a lot of people say this.
That’s a lot of personal preference: The 13/14 cars got the new bodywork trims, LED/HID headlights, track apps, revised coated pistons rather than the oil squirters in the '11-'12 motors. A lot of guys reported #8 failures. Some didn’t, its a highly discussed topic if you search on google amongst s197 threads. I’d look into the engine especially close of a 11/12 if I was dead set on one first.

Back in January of 2014, I was trying to get a black 5.0 with the Brick Red interior, but it was a no go financially.

I'd trade my 2018 GT in a heartbeat for that car.

In my opinion, the S197s were built better.

Once the Whipple is installed on my 18 I'm gonna find a 13 or 14 for a daily..I adore those years...

Yeah I read that as well that's why I chose 13 or 14. To be honest the only reason I'm look at a 16 v6 is because it's just a nicer car for the same money.
