Deal cut, brought it home today. '07 GT

The car is a 2 owner, factory stock with 15,600 miles. I paid to dang much for it, but it drives, rides, runs, shifts, and brakes like a new car. Oh well, I've never seen an armored car following a hearse, so we've got to enjoy the fruits of our labors. I want my last check written to the funeral home, and it bounce.

And, the Morrision Motor Co. sticker on the back is already gone........

That's the only thing missing my friend. I'll have to check that "smell well" stuff out.

Outstanding!!! It certainly is a time capsule. Our recent 'crazy low mileage' purchases will probably outlast us. Maybe that's why our 'car wives' are so supportive.

I have to give my dearest credit. She's turned into quite the gearhead in her on rite. She was nearly as excited about the car as I was. And your right, the cars we just bought are probably in better shape than we are my brother.

Congrats on the new to you "07" Tungsten Gray GT Jim! She's very stunning and still looks as though she just rolled off the showroom floor with just 15,600 miles... As for paying too much? All that matters in the end, is your happiness

That is a very scary thought, especially for us older folks lol. But just knowing how well built and reliable our low mileage S197 Mustangs are, I don't doubt that for a single moment

It will be an "almost" daily driver Glenn. I have a truck that I drive quite often, but not quite as often now.

BTW, no burn outs. As I've grown more mature (i.e. older) I find that just cruising around is more my style now. I said I want to keep it as is in stock condition, but I find myself in want of some Borla S-Types to open it up a little. During my next session with my therapist I'm hoping she can cure that itch.

Congrats on your great find! Very nice looking '07! Sharp car! Looks pretty pristine for a 15 year old car... Never know it was that age. It was hardly driven at under 16k miles. Just barely over 1k per year. And to find it is still stock is a huge bonus. Congrats again!

Thanks Shane, I was quite happy to find the car for sure. The tires looked brand new, but when I checked they were 9 years old. Just a hair, and a half past there freshness date. Just had a new set installed today.

What did you end up getting?? That's so funny that both our 'new' cars had 9 year old rubber.
