Default test drove 03 gt im buying it!

Sup all! Kinda new here. I trolled while I had a v6 mustang, but now that its gone I felt like posting..

So I've been in contact with a guy selling a 2003 silver gt with 23k miles on it. current mod list is:
SLP long tubes, o/r xpipe, slp lm1 catback
diablosport tuner, steeda tri ax sts,cobra clutch, 3.73s, accufab throttle and plenum, msd ignition coils, steeda lowering springs and a strut tower brace.

I drove the car yesterday and I fell in love. It pulled so hard, specially when compared to my old v6. the black leather interior was clean and comfortable.

I'm dealing with the bank right now to get a payment check for him, I will have pics and videos up when I get it to show everyone.

Sorry for the random post lol, but everyone turns into a ecstatic teenager when getting a new car.

Im in NY so prices are always a bit inflated.

It was the right deal for me 11,500.

I was looking at stock GTs for the same price and more mileage. So this one with upgrades that I would have done myself for the price was perfect.


QUICK EDIT

I know GTs have 260 crank hp, whats the rwhp and a rough guesstimation (new word) on the HP with the mods that are on it?
Ive been looking into those VT stage 2 N/A cams or teh Vt stage 2 blower cams with plans of maybe putting a vortech on it in the future.

03 with 23K miles..

not bad, and I'm generally a very stingy person when it comes to other peoples deals..

some people might say 11,500 is a bit high for a 6-7 year old GT, especially with a 2V, but the fact that it only has 23K miles is a HUGE plus in my book!

Sounds sweet!
