Used 2008 GT or 2009 GT?

I'd go with the '09 out of the 2 also. Still shop around though in my opinion. I bought my '09 with 3600 miles for just under 22K. (21,7 to be exact). There are deals out there, and nice cars too. Personally, I prefer finding stock and doing my own mods. That way, I can choose them and see and watch its progress. Also, anything I can't do personally, I know who did.

I say go for the 10...crazy low miles, the owner is a good guy and used to post around here often, and it has a few extra horses under the hood. If fancy stuff floats your boat, just buy some leather take offs for like $300 and put in your own aftermarket stereo. That's a great deal on the 10, especially since you could probably push the price down even lower if you tried hard enough.

If you really want a manual though don't settle. You can get a similar 2010 gt to the one posted with a stick if you look around.
Though knowing that it was a members car, you know it was taken care of by a knowledgeable owner, which is always good!

So here's the scoop on the silver 10. There are no extra horses under that hood anymore...I know because I bought them and they are now on my 2010. I got to see his mini and it's pretty sweet. The 2010 is pretty much back to stock now because between me and one other member, we bought all those parts.
If you do buy that 2010, I have the hood spears that match the color of the saleen side stripes and I'll give them to you.
If you're willing to drive up to Mike Naughton, they have my 06 still on the lot. They are asking almost 20 for it, but they gave me 16. I can tell you that it has a lot of mods not listed. Ford Racing 4.10's, lca's, roush rear springs, cai, running AM tune, input for ipod/etc, dynamat throughout, muffler deletes, stripes, sequential blinkers, cool taillights,new optima battery, billet all over under hood, vinyl rally strips (i have some spares of that around) etc... I had zero intention of trading the car that day and actually now kinda regret doing it. It's a great frickin car with a lot of time and energy put into it. I have a spare set of fan blades with blizzaks that I'd sell for break even on it and in fact, just gave a buddy all my stock take offs at lunch today and I would have no problems getting them back from him at all.
If you're at all interested in the 06 that was mine, it is here http://www.bigmike.com/inventory-res...dmodel=Mustang and honestly, it's a pretty great car. At this point, Im sure you could get it for maybe 17. The only thing missing and not replaceable is the tuner. I sold that off, but you could buy a new one easily. If you want more info, pm me or post here and I'll keep an eye out.

lol...cool...It's actually 15 and 15 I think, but if you run 91 octane or better, Ford automatically gives you an extra 10 lb ft.

Hey guys. Status update. I was disappointed to find that the silver 2010 mustang GT was a automatic. So I moved on to my next option as soon as I found out.
I ended up test driving the black 2009 mustang GT and it was in great shape. Drove amazing and ended up having a great stereo system with some subs installed in the back. I really lost interest in the blue 2008 mustang with all the mods. Just didn't feel like my kinda car.
So I ended up buying 2009 lol... Figure i'll put my own mods on it and make that car mine.
I'll give it a nice car wash tomorrow and take some pics for you guys
Thank you everyone for your input. I think i'll be spending lots more time on these forums!!
