No not 20k. Imma have to go with the 16-16.5k.

Its a badass car dont' get me wrong...but people don't wanna pay for somthing that coulda been beat on w/ that kinda power(not saying you do)...always that risk ppl think about.

yeah man, it sounds like a nice car, but you're not going to get much if any money back for the mods... if anything that will scare ppl off bc they're going think it was abused (not saying it was, I'm sure you've taken great care of it) good luck with the sale though, hopefully someone will find your car and give you what you want for it

i feel differently on this aspect

ide rather buy a car with a fully built engine than one with a stock engine and bolt ons / sc whatever...

people who drop 10k or more in just mods, tend to take care of their rides a little better.... sure it probably gets driven hard, but thats what it was built for, and im sure whoever owns it keeps up on the maintenance VERY thoroughly as to not ruin thousands of dollars worth of parts

i used to beat the hell outta my car...i raped it like i was on an unsupervised test drive lol...now that ive got so much money and time into it, i treat it with a little more respect...sure its gonna get raped still, thats what its made for, but it wont ever be abused like before, and the maintenance will be done before its due, just outta precaution

^^ absolutely 1000% with all the coin invested car it is well maintained and care for... i love my car in end i will probably keep it but who knows maybe someone will be interested or sees the value in a car with brand new built motor with greater performance than a 50K GT500...

Y does it still have the stock heads? It looks like a lot of time and cash was put in on this car, but I would have though a built like it would have a good set of heads put on. That b n said when I was lookin 4 a stang I didn't want 1 built because I thought it would b abused worse than a bone stock car. Now I would gladly pay a little more 4 the built car. Mods on these bitches aint cheap

its not a horrible price, your best bet for that kind of money though. A dealer. If you know someone who owns a dealership or even talk to one and they let you put it on thier lot for a small price, id say its doo able. Other than that though, to much for most people considering its not a cobra...even if it would stomp a stock one. There were times were i almost bought modded cars becuase it makes more financial sense...but it mainly really hard because nothing is going to have exactally what i want for a price i can afford. Thats why i just bought my own lol. Id keep it, all i can think about is how id regret selling somthing with 500 plus HP lol
