I just wanted more low end torque and get up ( the reason I got the 3.73 gear) and of course that V8 sound. I wish I could take the PP wheel from my 6 and put them on the 8...I think they would look sharp on the silver....
Are the PP wheels the same as the CS?

Congratulations! I bought my '13 GT from Skillman. John and Joey were great to deal with and if I lived closer, that's where I'd go for service for sure. Enjoy!

Thanks Mikey. I bought a Mustang from a Skillman employee named Steve McQueen. No joke that's his name. He's beyond awesome.

Seriously how often can you say you bought a Mustang from Steve McQueen?!

Thanks my friend!
The dealership gave me 7k over bluebook on my v6 granted I left the mods on. With two accidents on the carfax, I gladly took it and used it for the down payment on the GT.

Luckily i
Got to keep my summer set of wheels due to the season. I would keep the Bullitts but they don't fit with the CS look. Plus they are smaller. (18x10) I finally see why people like 19 and 20 inch rims. They look great on this body style.

Whoever gets my Bullitts will be happy though. They weren't even broken in yet.

Not sure. They are summer tires also. They would be good rims for winter if I sold the tires....l
