Not sure where in Oklahoma you are, but a search on autotrader is a good place to start.

I purchased my 2005 gt with 40000 miles in march of this year for 15k. I'd probably look for an 05-06 for that price range. I found mine at a local dealer through autotrader.com.

I'd look for an '07 or newer unless you can find one with a previous owner that was aware of and corrected certain issues. The 05s and 06s have a few more issues (read the laundry list of TSB's in the sticky in the S197 main forum) than the latter years do.

I just picked my 2006 GT up for 16k out the door after some haggling. Post pics of your new GT!

I wouldn't let that deter me (obviously ahah) most of the tsb's are on minor things. If you can find a newer year around the same price def go that route but if not I wouldn't pass up a good deal on an 05-06. Insurance is cheaper on older models also.

I bought my 06 GT Oct 2009 with 16k miles for $15,500. There are deals out there, just be patient.
