thinking about going back to a mustang
been thinking about getting back into a mustang. I was watching a video i made a while back driving through some canyons around here and I miss how planted to the ground the car was. The Roush truck is awesome and for a truck its really fun but I think my heart will always be with mustangs 
id really like to find a roush trak pak but the few that I found are a little too much. My max price would be $40,000. I also thought of just getting a nice low miles 05-09 GT and modding that the way I want to. Then theres also the 5.0 and i could get one of those and mod that slowly, it does already have hp #s close to the roushcharged 4.6

It really depends what you want/what you want to do.
In my opinion, the 05-09s look a little better but they are underpowered (300 vs. 412 hp) compared to the 5.0
You could easily get an 05-09 and throw a supercharger on it along with other mods to get it to the 5.0's level. But the 5.0 has a lot nice interior and apparently is overall a better car.
Honestly, I'd get the 5.0 and slowly add to it

lol if i could find an extreme for $40,000 then id get that but the one i saw one ebay is 55,000.
I definitly wanna test drive a 5.0 asap so i can see how that feels. Eventually ill have to get a supercharger for it cuz i couldnt live without the whine now that ive had a taste of it

Keep your eyes peeled on craigslist and over on soec.org's forums. That ebay one is way high in price, as are most cars on ebay.
Sold, but examples:

Not an extreme but an awesome one none-the-less - http://saleenforums.soec.org/showthr...hlight=extreme
Not saying they're common, but they're out there.
