You say the sound is the same but it won't take people long to see past this, especially if you don't have the GT front grill with the fog lights. But i'd say you got a good deal only paying 10K

Are you still under warranity?

+ 1... OP a true mustang owner will know that you are not driving a GT as soon as you start it up. Am I mistaken to beleive that the V-6 cluster is different than the GT. I know on the new edge models the MPH guage reads to 120, where as the GT reads to 150.. OP on the outside you have done a very good job making the clone.. but don't screw it up with the badges. Like Sonic said you will get alot more kudos and respect from people if you take them off..

I appreciate the postive feedback. All the cloning was done before i got it. the main things im missing to be a closer clone of a GT is of course the V8. and fog lights. The cluster on GTs is differnt as well many of the real GTs have the mycolor option. You can change out the clusters and give ur mustang the mycolor option. but from what i understand it can be kinda pricey and if you do it your self you can mess somthing up involving the pass airbag. I was actually at mcdonalds and a guy started up his real 05-09 GT and you could tell a differnce in the sound. i would of bought a real one except for i really wanted the 05 + body style and a nice GT runs around 15k-22k from what i seen and that was lil more than i wanted to spend

nice looking ride
not a fan of the clone thing on a v6, but it looks good
10k for almost 70miles is a bit high in my opinion
i got mine for 14k, 12,000 , its a 08
