Ok my car is going to be a lease will be here in about 3 weeks. I am putting these 20" rims .


I was also wondering if i would be able to put a new exhaust on, and have it not effect the lease. Does anyone know the answer

I would check with Ford...I do not think the lease lets you modifiy there car. If you buy it then you can do what you want provided what you do does not effect the warranty.

Under the lease contract the car is not suppose to be modified, now you can always change rims and exhaust, just save the old one and at the end of the lease if you decide to turn the car in, just put the old parts back on.

ShowGT

The vehicle must be returned in original condition or they may charge fees and penalties.

MustangKid91

is it easy to put an exhaust back on

cds06stang

I installed mine myself, basically two clamps and couple of hangers about 30-45 minutes not too bad, pretty easily with basic hand tools.

What's going to happen is you are going to fall in love with your lease then you will REALLY pay to try to own it. You can just undo changes before turning it back in, kinda silly to mod a lease though. The lease factors (rates) are atrocious for Mustangs right now. I'm not getting into lease debates for the 100th time, but you are better off buying it.<---period Can't afford the MASSIVE 100 difference a month for a buy over a lease but mod it right off the bat with chrome rims??? The wheels and tires alone cover the difference for two years.

never would have thought of it that way myself. but ur right, the price of the mods your going with right away WOULD have covered the price difference for 2 years with a finance plan. i have so many friends that leased one time or another and every one of them say its a bad deal. in the end u NEVER stop making payments. yea u get a new car every few years but the payments never end. personally i want to own my car.

yes im payin 400 a month for my pony but in 2 more years ill will be mine (did a 3 year plan for those that are shocked by the high monthly payment)

kevinb120

400 is a cheap monthly payment

slipnotovk

since all my friends either have POS for cars or the parents got them theirs and they dont pay insurance i have noone to compare payments with. i guess i lucked out with 400.

makes me feel better. thanks

Agree 100x over.

n00bstang

haha. yeah dude. do whatever you want. rims, exhaust, cai, tune, etc. just make sure you can set it back to stock after the lease is done.

and it'd probably smart not to get to attached to the pony. since it's a lease and everything.

Well, somehow junior is going to have to talk Mom and Pop out of the lease and I can just see how that conversation goes over.

slipnotovk

get off the internet. that was an awesome qoute. actually lol'ed

StangMahn

Well, see the problem start with putting 20in rims on the car. When you up the size of the rim at all, you should increase your stopping power, and thats gonna result in a charge at the end of your lease.

Are are those 20 inch wheels compatable with the Mustang's new Tire Pressure warning system??????

GottaHaveIt

400 for a v6 ? should been a GT because just maybe wait untill lease runs through or see if they will upgrade for a GT cause if you want things I see a bigger engine in the future ? then when that lease is up buy the GT or go for a Shelby GT 500

DynamicmustangGT

my payment for my gt is way less than 400, your getting ripped, buy the car don't lease it

slipnotovk

it was 400 for a GT, not V6.


seein has how my apr is 9% and its a 3 year finance plan, 400 is the rate. that was the lowest rate i could get at the time since my credit was SHOT.

MustangKid91

i just asked my mom and she said mine is 522 a month for my gt.. butkeep in mind i have like every upgrade you can get
