2010-2014 Ford Mustang S-197 Gen II Lets see your latest Pics PHOTO GALLERY
I gotta vent a little…I’m kinda PO’ed today. My brother works at a local dealer and on Saturday he texted me a picture of a 2013 Roush Stage 3 in his bay saying I’d look good in it. I couldn’t agree more! I was stoked at the price and knew I could make a deal if they were fair with me on my car. Since my car is still in storage for another week or so I put together a package of info and shot it off to them right away Monday morning and asked them to shoot me their best offer. In the TWO days it took them to get back to me the RS3 sold and the offer they gave me on my ’13 was so insultingly low it was left speechless. $21,500…WHAT? It was a $38,000 dollar car that’s less than three years old with only 17,500 miles on it. I’m 99% sure I’m going to sell my ’13 outright this summer -no trade in’s for me thanks- and look for something else. I can’t believe these dealers…

John, don't sell or trade your car. That being said, that offer is not surprising from dealers. The less they give you, the more they make in profits once they sell it. In their defense though, mods you add won't add value to it.
As far as adding the blower to your car, that would be a great idea! Get a blower for your car for the primary reason of adding enjoyment and fun for yourself. Don't look at it as an investment, it never will be.
Just change your perspective and you'll be surprised at how much more fun you'll get out of it.

Before I bought this f'ing thing back in Apr, '12, I should have taken my cash and bought myself the pre-war Gibson RB3, or Granada banjo I've alway dreamed of. No depreciation there...only increased value...stupid, stupid...STUPID!!!!!!!!! Listening to Flatt and Scruggs at Carnagie Hall as I write this...pure musical magic!!!

Sexy it is. What color was the Roush? And what don't you like about your car? Don't you know I'm the forum bad influence for modding? Let's get your ride hooked up and make it even better than any Roush offering!
Just don't ask me which vendor to buy from, I'm pretty pissed at most of them right now

c'mon...at least give a guy runnin chance! Not as regal or "gentlemanly" as some of the sweet colors ya'll court but in-your-face works when toten a big stick!
See the post above to B'man. Pretty sure the love affair with the current mistress is reaching terminal velocity. Biggest two gripes are auto tranny and the second fulltime job black color my dimensia will not allow me to have look'n out of sorts. It makes me drink copious amounts of tequila which my doctor says is bad for me. I say F him...there are more old drunks than there are old doctors so we'd best have another round!

Lmao, well tequila is disgusting, so I now question your taste LOL. Jk, but yeah if you're auto and you want stick, do yourself a favor...just get a GT500. The MT-82 isn't worth it. Get the GT500 and the blower/TR-6060 that come with it! 
Then we can talk mods from there. The 11-12s can be picked up for really good deals these days, now that the 13-14 outshined them by over 100hp!

I was looking at this beauty. If it was in CA, I'd trade my car for it in a HEARTBEAT.

You couldn't own that car in California. CARB wouldn't allow the headers.
They'd probably arrest you and put you under San Quentin.

Either way, the deals are out there, stock or modded. My next Mustang WILL have snakes on the fenders, mark my words!

Dealer where I bought my GT/CS still sends me letters all the time trying to get me to buy a new car. Most insulting one I've gotten yet came last week. Carrying on about how bad they need used cars and they'd love to have my car, even if I didn't want to trade it in, they'd still buy it. Said they wanted it so badly that they'd give me above their normal black book value. $33,000. I'm sure you would, you ****ing crook. Really pissed me off.
