Thanks for the reply!! bummer on the answer

 

****...why did someone who couldn't even drive a stick win a free Shelby????? What a shame....I baby the hell out of my cheapo v6....what I would do with a Shelby!!!!

 

Maybe she was suppose to end up in mystang's hands and the only way should would've was if that girl created her and won :-) . Congrats, great car mystang take care of her!!

 

That custom 2013 GT 500 is really nice. What a find. I would be thrilled to have such a nice GT500. Color should have been offered by Ford.

 

Just out of curiosity what color did the car start out as before Galpin painted it?

 

Congrats on a great car. One that I would be proud to own. That color is amazing, exotic, nothing short of exclusive.

Get ready for the clamor of people hitting you up.

 

The car started life as a Black stripe delete car with SVTPP Performance Pack and glass top.

 

Thanks for the comments guys. She sure turns heads when driving down the road

 

Congrats. Too bad no Electronics Package and Recaros.

 

I hear ya but the customizer is just exterior mods. You know Ford wasn't going to go all out for a Give-away car.

 

To have the SVTPP option is big.

 

Heck to baby the stang. Its a freaking mustang. Not a Buick. Ride that b otch like the pony was meant to be driven. Your not gonna hurt that engine. Ride it hard baby. That's what the car was designed for. You want a baby, go buy a Buick or Cadillac.lmao

 

Which is why I would never buy a used Mustang...there is a difference between getting on it and beating the **** out of it...no car is built to withstand beating on it all the time...

 

Me and my colleagues beat the ball snot out of our Ford Crown Vic's. I mean we run the heck out of them. Very fewer professions run cars harder than me in my job. We run 150k plus miles beating them relentless and the ford engines hold up. I'm not saying to beat on your stang, but baby it. Heck no. They were designed to be driven hard and put away wet. Lol

Although, I would certainly not recommend doing neutral bombs with the car , that is the quickest way to ruin and destroy the transmission. One will certainly get at least a 100k miles out of the engine and that's running it hard like a stripper. I drive 8 k miles a year. By the time I hit 100k I will want a new stang. It will be like 12 years later. I only paid like 26k with all my mods. What the heck do I really care if I only get 12 years from the car. I'm gonna drive her like a pony car should be driven. Lol

 

I had a mustang collector stop and ask me yesterday if I would be willing to part with the car. He said his wife would probably drive it a few times and then he would put it up in a climate controlled garage after changing out all the fluids. I said anything is for sale for the right price. I was offered $50k cash. I told him thank you politely but for that price I would just hold onto it. He said it had too many miles (4684 miles) and (2) paint nicks in it so it is not collector material plus if it was it would not be worth anything for about 20 years. i told him the car would go on E-bay before I would ever consider $50k.

 

People

If it wasn't collector material because of the miles and paint nicks then why did he want to buy it?

 

Exactly. He called me this afternoon and bumped his price to $56k. I told him $56k would not even replace the car.

 

What a joke. Just out of curiosity, what would get you to part with it? I'd almost say I wouldn't sell that car, considering the story behind it.

 

My brother in-law has a friend that works the auctions down in West Palm. He said he would put a reserve on the car of $90k if it was coming thru the auction, but that I needed to keep the miles as low as possible. TOO LATE, I now have just over 5K on it. I have put 1500 on it since June 26th.

I just enjoy driving the car

 

Personally, I wouldn't sell it either. I'm not sure the other giveways in that program were a custom color like that one. Hell, tell him to add another 2k and go find his own out there and you'll just keep the "damaged" goods.
