What did you do with your Mustang today?

Honestly, I'll just give it to the new owner when I sell the car. (Of course, that will be figured into the final car cost.)
I've been thinking of putting it up for sale in October, for sh*ts and giggles. If it sells, terrific! I'll pay off the truck and still have 10K left over. Then, I can save another 5K over the winter months, from December-March/April.
I haven't decided if that is what I am going to do just yet. I'm "anxiously" awaiting the arrival of the new GT500. (I already promised someone we both know first dibs on the car. If he isn't interested any more, I'll go to potential buyer number 2. If those aren't going to go through, then it will be on the interwebs. lol)
***Like I said, I'm still playing it all out in my head for now. I may not do it. (Circumstances can change in an instant.) But, I'll have a brand new truck that's paid off that will last for years and years and have money for something new, hopefully the new GT500. We shall see.

You seriously thinking about selling that museum piece??? Why? And why'd you bother trying to pay it off so quick, now that you're only going to sell it? Obviously it won't sell for what you paid for it, so you would lose money and not have enjoyed it as much for those little miles (who am I to talk LOL - I have 14k).
Don't sell dude - not worth it. Then you'll be in another loan. Rush to pay one loan off only to get into another?

Like I said in the previous post, it's all in the "planning stage" right now. It may happen, it may not happen. Some factors decide whether it happens or not.
But, for the record, it is a killer car. Turns heads everywhere and absolutely nothing wrong with the car at all. It's a blast to drive. And if I or someone wanted to really turn it up, it would be super easy and super quick. It's a TVS car, which are some of the fastest out there. Some of the greatest tuners around as well, including VMP, Ken Bjonnes and Lund.

Actually, I will get most of money back. I'm selling for over 40K. (Just do a quick search for 2013/2014 Roush Stage 3 cars out there on Google. They're in the 40's with higher mileage and less desirable colors than mine. Probably not as clean either. lol Remember, I only paid 46k for my car, brand new. Sticker was over 61K.) Besides, I'm already in another loan. The truck loan. Whackadoodle. lol

Good luck buddy. Make the best decision for you and not for anyone else. What does the wife/family think? I guess I'm assuming you are hitched and with family. I couldn't make a decision without my wifey's blessing

Ah ok... you got a killer deal to begin with. Good... that will help with resale. So cost-factor/impact aside - why the desire to get rid of her? Just to get into a new Shelby/something new? Am just curious... maybe you're bored of her? hmmm If I didn't already have Marilyn, I'd take it off of you, no questions asked. LOL. I know the state of your car, and other than slightly more miles on my end, I think the way we take care of our cars is similar

No wife, so I answer to no one, but my wallet. LOL Was engaged at one point in my life, but everything happens for a reason, right?
Thanks again bro. Have a good one. Hope you're enjoying your beast of a car!

But, obviously, need to see info and specs before placing an order. I WOULD LOVE a GT250R, but if boosted, it needs engine modifications. (I don't need to sell my car, I want that to be known. I may want to sell it.)

To your other point though, I was going to suggest that but I wasn't sure if it was an option for you financially. If I were you, I would keep her, and then buy a Shelby alongside with it. Obviously, this is the best route to go if you are financially able.

Let's get it done!!!

Too funny Burton!
Funny you said this about the Shelby. I found a perfect Shelby too. I don't have a 2 car garage for the Shelby if I keep the Roush too, so I would have to pay a storage place, which is more money out of pocket every month. It's not financially sound for me.
Like I said, it's just a pipe dream for now. I'm still thinking it over. I won't be making any moves till October, if I do.

Hana! Said perfectly. No one but you. I like it.

Mark, I think this would be the right route to go for both of you. I might definitely have to drive up to Minnesota more often if you do do this. Tony's car only exists in myths as of now. But if you buy it, then it actually is "real". I'd have to go see it! Haha

Funny you mention that as I am out driving around now and taking some new DSLR shots. It's been too long. First weekend home in 2 months since it's been nonstop baseball tourneys with my son!!!!

Finally installed the adjustable BMR upper control arm and mount that I bought during the last Black Friday sale, about 7 months ago, lol
Set the length as close to the stock one as I could figure it, for now, until I can get the car on a drive-on lift.
Quick test drive, love it.
Didn't expect to feel anything, just wanted to make sure there were no unwanted noises.
Didn't expect the firmer feeling from the rear of the car when accelerating.
Love it.
It's a beefy work of art, especially when compared to the puny factory parts, but even when compared to the Steeda unit I had in there:
It's kind of a shame that it's hidden under the car:

Couple of days ago we brought this home.
My fiancee's son bought it, we borrowed a trailer from a friend and got the thing home.
'69 Mach 1 shell, needs all kinds of work, but he's psyched to take it on and resto-mod it:

Absolutely nothing! I was thinking on Friday at work, I was going to take her out all weekend.
Friday night,...nope! (rain)
Saturday,......nope! (did some cleaning/laundry, went to the gym to do cardio, (no lifting this week, as I take a full week off every 2 months), and cleaned the truck after supper)
Sunday,........nope! LOL (took my mom out for her birthday and going out with friends later)
I still have Monday and Tuesday. So, there's still hope!! (Tuesday is a vacation day. Took an extra long weekend.)

How do I know she was a hippie? Tie-dye shirt, dreads, **** racing her belly button to her crotch--and winning--and I could smell the mary jane off her from 20 yards away.
