Check KBB, then give yourself 0 credit for any mods that you've done to it.

I know it sucks...I hate even looking mine up. It's still such a great car. But coming up on 9 years old, it's not worth a whole lot anymore. Luckily, I never plan to part with it anyway.

Major Update:
Well I know I am slacking a bit with updating this thread. Not much has been done recently to it.
I had some problems with my PA alternator crapping out on me, so i went ahead and got a used motorcraft one of craigslist and sent the pa one to be replaced under warranty.

I know you guys may be wondering what the major update is..
As of July 23rd I will no longer own the car.

I leave for basic training for the Air Force July 22 and will be gone for sure till December.
But it isn't totally sad. I will be passing it down to my brother who is turning 16 at the end of July, my parents paid me $5,000 for it. After having it for 2 years and seeing it go from bone stock to far from it I am happy to pass it to my brother so he can enjoy it instead of it sitting around waiting for me to come back.

But guys! This isn't the end! By October of this year I will know what base I will be stationed at, and if it is state side I will be buying myself a new car.

I am looking at getting into:
-03/04 cobra coupe any color but white and black less then 30k miles and around $18k
-11+ GT
-10 GT500
or
- BOSS

those are the cars i am kicking around. I am heavily leaning towards the cobra though

I wanted to thank everyone here at themustangsource for all the guidance and support! I will be sticking around here till the day I leave and whenever I can after, but this concludes the build of my 2000 Mustang GT.

Thanks!

Nice, welcome back, what happened to the GT, IIRC, your little brother was getting it. Anyways I would go with the 2012 GT/CS, for 26K, and only 19k miles, I think it's a really good deal.
