I found a Showroom clean 04GT with 7K miles on it. It has the cheesy 17" wheels but I asked if they could swap them out for the bullitts on a red 03 GT they have on the lot. This car is "clean" both inside and out. I'm looking at $20K out the door if they go for the wheel swap. I wanted a Gray or Silver but I can't find one nearby or they have too many miles. What are your thoughts. Any White Mustang owners out there? How is your paint holding up?

I had a white '00 GT that I absolutly loved. The only downfall was it was an automatic. I wasnt crazy about the tan interior, but it honestly wasnt that bad.

I love how a clean white car looks compared to all the other colors.

The interior is black with gray trimming, the opposite of what I have right now. Gray with black trim. I'm hoping they go for it, the sales manager was already gone for the night.

Personally, I'm not too crazy about white. Just too "plain" for my taste. Now, the white Mach 1s aren't too bad...but a plain white GT just isn't my cup of tea.

Whatever you decide, good luck.

The dealer with the White GT (and crappy wheels) won't deal. They want almost $21K for their car. The Redfire (with nice wheels) is going for $18K and both have under 8000 miles.

You are missing out if you don't get white.

My 1999 GT was White with Dark grey interior. I love White cars!

Mine looks gorgeous even with crappy 16" stockers...

Yeah bottom of the line and also with a long waiting period. John I'd definitely go for the redfire if you can work out a good price!! Looks real nice. You'll definitely love the PI 4.6!!!

That 04GT is $19,500 is out the door, tax title and license. With no money down. If I was to get an 05 the way I want it we would be looking at almost $30K out the door.

I like that red too but I love the Burgandy looking colors the most. Going from Laser Red to Redfire seems to make sense.
