You could do it and never even tell anybody ... I'm sure you have enough pics of the car that you could keep updating this thread for 2 more years if needed, lol ....

HA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I've thought about selling it and banking the cash. But I like having a toy, so that's a no go.

Tony
I would understand if you went out and traded up for something else of your liking but I think you'll hurt your cars feelings. Plus you would have to end this thread. Your car looks gorgeous by the way.

Thanks Mark. I appreciate that.
It's not that I don't love the car, I really do. I get smile from it all the time. I wanted a GT500 when shopping for a new toy, but I thought insurance would be too much for me on top of the monthly payments. Looking back, I could have done it, but wasn't taking any chances. Better to be safe than sorry. lol

Excellent temps for running this car tonight. 60 degrees with a slight breeze.
Gave her a nice detail after the gym today before taking her out after supper.

Looking good Tony! Don't see nearly enough GHIGs on the road. Or Roushes for that matter.

Thank you Nathan.
I've seen 2 others besides mine. One was a 2013/2014 GHIG BOSS 302 that I used to see quite often. I think he has relatives or a girlfriend out here in my area. Haven't seen it in a while now though. Maybe now that the nice weather is back, I will?
The other was a car almost identical to mine, a 2013 GHIG Roush Stage 3. We were in the same Mustang club. I didn't know of his car till I joined the club.

You'd be surprised how much used Roush cars are selling for. Mid to upper 40's. Shelby GT350R's will sell for about the same. (Unless, you pay a huge ADM, in which case, you will lose money.)
Good luck going forward. I think the GT350R is one of the hottest looking Mustangs out there presently. I want one, but a supercharged one.

Thanks brother!
Yeah, it's been pretty nice out here lately.

Put about 35 miles on her this morning. GORGEOUS morning for a cruise. (My favorite time to take the car out is early mornings during the spring and summer. I enjoy it immensely. )
I actually took the 'Advancetrac' off today as well. I rarely take it off. Wow, does that make such a huge improvement in throttle/clutch response. It's almost like having a canned tune! LOL

Thanks Tom. I appreciate it.
I would have been out longer, but I just did some yard work and about to grab some lunch. Then, rest up a bit and hit the gym. Back and treadmill today.

Always loved that color

Wish they'd have made the 13 GT500 in it

I'd have ordered it that way instead of white and probably kept it

Thanks guys!

A member on svtperformance.com bought a 2014 GT500,(back in 2014), and had it wrapped in GHIG. Looked ballsy indeed.
