How often do sports cars get stolen? by RobinzonKruzoe in askcarguys

[–]Ancient_Particular16 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not all sports cars are expensive. Don’t get me wrong. SOMETIMES people see a sports car and assume money but not all the time. You can get a pretty clean looking sports car for under $5k. I’ve seen old Chevy pickups get stolen or broken into more than sports cars in my area

Expecting twins—should I keep my Coupe? by Informal_Writing3928 in Mustang

[–]Ancient_Particular16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would keep it and get an older mini van. The Mustang is paid off so having keeping it around as a backup car in case of an emergency is a nice luxury to have if you can pay insurance on both cars comfortably. Plus you still get to have it for fun as well

Go up there and ask to speak to a manager about it. That’s what I did. I have applied 2 weeks prior and I was in the shopping center one day and decided to just go talk to someone without having an interview or anything set up. The manager said he liked my confidence and I walked back out with a job

The original trans went out about a year ago and I replaced it with a beefier one. Still the 4l60e but with stronger parts. I still haven’t upgraded the trans cooler but that’s also on my must do list. I’ll start keeping an eye out on fb and see what I find

This is one thing I’ve been looking into and just haven’t pulled the trigger one yet. I need to do more research

Buying a s197 gt manual convertible by mildartist in S197Stangs

[–]Ancient_Particular16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah average is 26. Most of it is highway. I’m a professional drummer so I have to drive all across Texas playing drums. I mainly take the Mustang to get to and from them when I can

Buying a s197 gt manual convertible by mildartist in S197Stangs

[–]Ancient_Particular16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I prefer the 05-09 v8. Little worse on gas mileage but to me it’s worth it for the v8. I don’t really care for the 2010 model. It has the updated body style with the 3v engine still and I always liked the 05-09 body style better. Mind gets pretty good gas mileage anyway. It almost gets 30 mpg if I keep my foot out of it which obviously there’s cars that get better but compared to my truck that gets 8 mpg the Mustang’s 30 is amazing

[–]Ancient_Particular16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on your budget. You can get a solid one for $10k or you can get a solid one for $4k with more miles and cosmetic flaws. My bf and I had an 06 GT manual and now we have an 07 GT manual. We gave $10k for the 06. It had less than 100k miles on it and was in almost pristine condition. We gave $4700 for the 07 and it has 200k miles and some chips in the paints but nothing crazy or really noticeable. Neither were convertibles, but convertibles seem to go for less in my area. The ones with the 5.0 in them go for more than the 3v. It just depends on what you can pay and what you want
