Inspect her with a fine tooth comb. Usually where there are modded cobrasbroken halfshafts and fried tires aren't far away[sm=devilgrin.gif]. Have fun with it if you do get one.

I love terminators as well, when I bought my 07 GT/CS 3 months ago I was in debate over:
[ul][*]07 mustang GT/CS miles: 9, price: $29500 warranty[*]02 corvette Z06 miles: 45000, price: $28500 no warranty[*]03 terminator miles: 9800, price: $29000 no warranty[/ul]
The GT/CS had no miles and a factory warranty, plus that new car smell.

I was not thrilled about a Z06 with no warranty and 45000 miles but that thing ripped A$$.

The dealership wouldn't let me drive the terminator until they ran my credit. Ha, what a bunch of bastards. They let me sit in it whewwwww....................... I then learned the terminator had the least interior room of all three. Me being 6'4" would barely be able to drive one of those things. As a side note, I would not trust a terminator unless it was close to stock, could have had the hell dogged out of it.

See my avatar to see my decision.

Biggest regret: not being able to get my personalized license plate maybe you could steal my idea

Man that would have been sweet!

I think if I had a wider selection in my local area I would have been morelikely pushinga cobra. The S197 is still a great buy though and it has a lot of pluses. Just lack in power compared to the cobra. Honestly, the fact that we are always compared to cobras and Mach 1s is kinda flattering.

Damn that sucks the Terminator didnthave the factory warranty still. But I'm sure you'll get used to lovingyour 07 GT, and atleast you have the warranty.

3 year/36000 miles which ever comes first, the 3 years came first.

All I got to do is put the roushcharger on the 07 GT/CS and I will still have warranty and will be waxing terminators - stock terminators at least. Damn, not many are stock..........ok will need a couple more mods on top of the charger.
