Yep. The guy wanted it gone, he was ready to move.
He said he walked into a Chevy dealer to buy a brand new vette with cash and they wouldnt even give him the time of day (he was a fairly country guy) so i drove over to the Ford dealership and bought his GT with cash and drove back to Chevy with it. Needless to say they paid attention then.
The car was in perfect mechanical order and all maintenance had been perfect but there were a few key marks, scratches and a few dents.

lol shadow wins this thread. Nobody can beat that.
I got new:
Cervini's side scoops for $55
Cervini's 65' Window Louvers for $115
Staggered black bullitts with brand new tires for $1100 shipped.
JLT intake $100
..oh and of course the GT500 spoiler for $100.. painted.
I guess that's it. All of those parts were brand new and still look/work great. Overall I have saved at least $1,000 from just the parts on ebay. ebay FTW!

My friend just bought a 07 GT with Roush Louvers Roush Wing, CDC Lip, Exhaust, Intake + Tunner, 20" rims & Leather all in good condition with a clean tittle for $7,000 on Craiglist....
Before he bought it he asked me if it was a good deal... I just starred at him and asked him.. " WHY ARE YOU STILL HERE TELLING ME THIS? GO GET IT ! ! .. lol and he did =)

I've had a couple of good deals from the forum and Craigslist. Nothing nearly as good as an 8k Mustang, but still
- $150 for a set of GT premium wheels for my summer tires
- $50 for a Cobalt boost gauge
- $2500 for my complete Paxton HO kit

Wow, many of these sound incredible. so far I have only scored some 17" Bullitts for $375 with decent tread left. I plan on pointing them black soon as the weather gets nicer. =)
I check Craigslist for both Cleveland and Akron daily and nearly everything seems to be for fox bodies. I'm especially looking for an 8.8 and a GT front bumper conversion though.
