your car is really nice, but the performance mods arent going to help your asking price much. its really clean tho..... id say ask 4500. couldnt hurt anything. ive seen verts roughly that good for 5 around here

none! i dont know how i beat him! my friend had his dads 06 GT Convertable, and we ran em 3 times. i started a thread about a factory freak, because thats what i was thinking. we raced from a 15 roll, and two 45 rolls. we didnt out of a dig because obviously he has traction control. this also leads me to believe that maybe other things are done to my car, that i dont know of. maybe ported heads or something. the only way to know is to dyno it.

It was a STEAL. paid 2600 for it from some guy in Ohio. He had a baby coming, and needed cash fast for the hospital bills. He was like i was hoping to get around 2500, because thats what the bills are. I saw an h piep and new alternator in his garage and i told him 2600 for everything. he gladly took it! i drove away thinking, WOW i cant believe this is happening. i thought for sure he would be asking at least 3500.

Yeah I remember your factory freak thread. I think I have a freak too. I've brought my car to three shops (two of which the owners of which drive 5.0s), and all have asked what I have done to it. I told them nothing really, and they were shocked. I too want to dyno my car and find out once and for all. When I bought the car, I searched the thing trying to figure out why it was quick, as none of the other GTs I tested felt fast. Maybe it too is a factory freak.

By the way, I've always liked your car...reminds me of a chp car.
