dude...blaven....chill out. His money, his problem. Why is it that when anyone on this site admits to being loaded they get bashed? Not talkin about spoiled **** kids here either. Seriously, I'm so sick of hearing the whole "if you don'tlike it give it to me" crap. If he is willing to spend his hard earned money like that more power to him. I think paying 150 grand for a car buys you the right to b*tch about it. I also think it's retarded to spend money like that on a car but if I could afford it...who really knows?

Ok...sorry dude. I know I hit ya with both barrels but I had to say it.

Now Skycam...for that kind of loot I think you could have a much better personalized car. I'm trying to add it all up in my head and I just don't see the 60 grand there. Looks more like 30-35 in upgrades. And will someone please explain what "electric supercharged" is?

airborne; you actually shot at him with one barrel and missed, then blew your own head off with the other one. Blaven's answer was kinda funny IMO....but you just went out and called skycam "retarded."

So....who should chill out?

Skycam, as for the Ford GT (I assume that you have a Ford GT and not a GT40?), I too would be happy to take this problem vehicle off your hands if it is a source of disappointment.

If you do in fact have a GT40, then I guess I could take that, too....

Yes I'm not an idiot I have a speed yellow GT40 and had a screeming yellow GT mustang I had built to be a GT350 but blew up and caught fire while I was driving. If you haven't had a GT40 then you wouldn't know how stupid it looks when you go to a show and park and have to move over a couple of time because your door had to be completely open to get out of the dam thing! Yes you can buy them for $160,000 and I know you think that is stupid but look at book on them today. They are booking at 220,000.00 and its only going up.

Yes this car will be a 2006 but I'm having it built to match the 2007 Cobras except I'm doing some things better. I put 2007 cobra because I thought some of you true Ford guys would know what I ment when you saw the car. Why does it matter if I paid $90,000 or $30,000 its a one off car. Never again will one be built exactly like it. Had the car appraised for insurace and it was valued at $77,000. That's not bad for a new car that's only going up in value.

This is why I stopped posting on here.
I will still post some pics.

let's flip the coin here.

instead of asking, "why spend all this money on a mustang, for that $$$ get a X" on a mustang board how about this:
we remain happy with the fact, that it is still afterall, a Mustang.

it appears to me Skycam Loves the Mustang to the point he'd rather have a really fast, real custom stang instead of a real fast, plain stock GT(which he already has, I know) or any other car that is in the $90,000 Price range USD>

and my $0.02CDN is this.
I love the look of that car, The spoler doesn't do it for me, but different strrokes...

ORIGINAL: Skycam1

Some of you guys will remember me from a while back when my 2005GT blew up. No insurance hasn't paid off but we will win in the end. Found out some stuff I can't post becaue we are going to court with Safeco and FC Customs.

After a long search found a guy to build the car I really want. Should be here this Friday, just getting the finishing touches and leaving florida.
I changed a few things so it looks exactly like the one pictures except the center wheels are black but 5 flat spoke.

Check out all these guys do to the mustang. The car is painted to match the oine pictured. The parts aren't in production yet so this is number 2 on the list and all
the body parts had to be one offs from the molds pictures. Production wasn't until Aug. Before you see the price and say hell you could have bought a GT40 I HAVE ONE IN SPEED YELLOW AND HATE THE DAM THING. It rides rough no cup holders you have to open the doors 90 degrees to get out and the seats suck.

Will post pics and videos when it gets here.

I'm sure the GT40 really does suck, so let me know where I can pick it up because owning a car that sucks that bad has been my life long dream. I live in Illinois, let me know when you can drop it off.

You got it! There are 5 of us here that are Helo pilots. We all bought GT40's Yeah they cost money I know but the one setting next to mine is still a GT40 so who really cares about that anymore. Bring in a Cobra like Bash is building with a GT40 engine and the Mustang Cobra look!!! Now you have a car! Truth I wouldn't pay $90,000 for a GT40 now but thier value is going up so its hangered and waiting.

I want the 69 Mustang BOSS look with the same power but to keep it on the ground and safe you have to do some things to it. I road coarse race about once a month and it will
need down force. Me I like the look of the wing. Just wait till you see it. I changed it to exactly what I wanted.

I'm in IL. to and fly into SpngFld and Chicago quite a bit. I'm down close to Quincy. How about a ride then you tell me. No cup holders? my guess is because it beats you so bad the drink would fly out! This car has the stage 3 upgrade so its way fast.

I quite like the body kit on that stang and hey if he's willing to spend the bucks, who's to say? He is passionate about his Ford's and his Mustangs and I can appreciate that.

I personally could quite live without the wing, but if he likes it then all the more power to him.
