Did you see that post I made last night about what that dealer offered for my 500?

Right? Sorry Tony, but private sale you might get that, dealer trade in...yeah right. You'd be lucky if they gave you $35-40k, if that. To their "wholesalers" your car is just a regular GT Premium with 1,600 miles. Nothing Roush added is worth anything to a dealer when considering trade value. Of course, when they turn around and sell it, they'll list it for $50k plus and make a huge profit!

That's the main drawback about the Roush cars. No matter how much it cost or what all it has, when you run that VIN like dealers or anyone else do, it comes back as just a GT and that's what they're going to base their value on. I ran into the same thing with my Shelby GT. I'll never go down that road again (not on buying a brand new car) because you are going to lose your *** if you ever get rid of it.

At with least the GT 500s the VIN comes back as something more valuable.

Nice line up there Darren. Despite the crappy looking sky, there's real nice color saturation. Good job.

Here is from the other side. When ever I my mustang I always leave enough room so that no accidents happen. I would walk 200 meters from the other side of the parking lot just so I would have more room.

On an other note We are trying to get more mustang in the picture. So this Wednesday at 6 we are starting the parking lot get together for coffee. There is a Tim Hortons and Starbucks, so you can pick your poison. Hope to see more of my mustang brothers and sisters there. The parking lot is the Canadain Tire at the Junction in Mission, BC

Today I received a new pair of matte black 5.0 badges, to replace the plasti-dipped ones currently on the front fenders.
Slowly but surely I'm removing all the plasti-dip from my car ...
