I'd try to talk down the GT/CS to be honest. But I love the look of those models, so that's why I would invest the effort, if you don't really care about the look then I say ditch the CS option and look around at the 14K GT or maybe the red GT500 conversion.

My suggestion- try to stay above the first year models, they may be flawless but a lot of the TSBs cover them and it may be less headaches for you in the future if you stick with a 06 or maybe keep looking for that perfect color/year/options/priced mustang.

Looking is like 55% of the fun lol.

Op what part of NE are you from? I'm originally from there. Good luck getting a Gt. I'm searching as well.

Allinon's ride...very tastefully done and you get a jump ahead of what you would be doing! Not to mention you KNOW he took care of that ride. He's an active member on this site, actually having done some writups. Go with the person you trust in taking care of the ride in the first place, not to mention that ride is SEXY! AAAAAAAAAAAND its' not only blue, it's SONIC BLUE which is very rare on our vehicles (S197)

Sounds like you have a lot of good options! I would go for the Black stock GT. It already has the window louvers too. ;-)
The Sonic Blue GT sounds good too, however, the only way I would purchase a heavily modded car is if I knew the seller or if he/she was referred by someone I know.
Good luck!

You might be able to get the GT/CS down. I am a little biased though. I picked mine up about 7 months ago for around $17,500 with 55k miles on it. Just depends on what the dealer owns the car for.

I love the rear valance on the GT/CS. I'd put an aftermarket one on my car if I didn't go with the CS.

I'm originally from Omaha.

The yellow one is stock, but I'm not too partial to the color.
I love Dark Candy apple red, and Black..so either of those would be amazing.

Only bad part is all of the GT's are out in Missouri, so it'll be quite a ride down to look/buy them. And I will have to sell my v6 before I go down, so I have the cash..

As for a blower..can't afford that. Period. But if I get back what I paid for my v6, then I can pick up a GT for right around the same. I'm trying to keep from getting loans..

As for insurance, the difference from the GT and v6 is about 20 bucks a month. I've checked into that before.

Thanks for the comments guys! I'll probably be going with the black GT...
or the GT/CS if I can get them down to at least 18..
