I wouldn't pay $26k for it but for low 20s I see it as a deal. I don't know about where you live but the 4.6 S197s around here are all over priced. Must be the time of year.

$26k is dumb... you could get a GT500 for just a few thousand more... with much more potential... I would shoot for low $20's/high teens. The car is about 7 years old at this point. New they were low 30's/high 20's

yea for that price just get a 2011 -2012 5.0

Andy13186

why would a 5.0 depreciate more compared to a 4.6? i think you are incorrect. 4.6's value has gone way down since the 5.0 has been released, atleast in my eyes.

The 4.6 has already depreciated.

Andy13186

hes asking 26,500 for a 2006 4.6

id say mabe 18k OP.

I also think/hope the 5.0's wont depreciate much at all since the engine is very desirable , im hoping they wont lose their value much at all for years.

He is saying that the release of the 5.0 has caused the 4.6 to depreciate.

Has some nice mods, like the headers and suspension upgrades. But the gold stripes look cheesy. I got my 2007, garaged condition (no dents, dings), with $6k supercharger, wheels, hood, short throw shifter, for $14k from a dealer. That's $12k less than the one you're looking at, but had 80k miles. I'd offer no more than $20k for that, if I wanted gold stripes and automatic :P

All good points from everyone. I don't have a problem with the gold stripes and I would prefer an automatic. (semi-retired and don't want to work myself to death in Atlanta traffic). Upgrades and low mileage are the justifications for the price. I got them down to $25,000 so that's not bad compared to other available cars around the country. I also have my eye on a 2008 Roush P51 for $27,000 because it has 54,000 miles. That's 2 years newer but 3 times the miles.

On a side note. I actually really like the gold stripe. I think the car as a whole looks fantastic and I think its a decent deal for 25k.
