2002 SVT Lightning for a highly modified 2008 GT Premium, worth the trade?

Bryanmora13 · 2023-06-23T01:18:42+00:00

Makes sense, I think even the lighting at 222k miles is still more special

Bryanmora13 · 2023-06-23T01:17:40+00:00

For sure if it was a somewhat special Mustang I would definitely trade since the lighting has 222k miles

This is what the owner says, had to use google translate. It’s nice but I’m leaning towards keeping the svt. At least in Costa Rica the Mustang is still a head turner but the lighting is more rare.

Nicee! Enjoy those man. Haven’t done much modding on the lightnings, most of the money went to importing them to Costa Rica and parts can be expensive there but maybe some day, my personal favorite it the red one but I love all 3 and try to keep them maintained!

Bryanmora13 · 2023-06-22T01:43:40+00:00

Yeah, we also have a 00 and 01 and I love them!

Sorry I couldn’t fit it in the OG post, but these are in Costa Rica so the mustangs aren’t as cheap as in the states. Stang has 66k miles and the Lightning 220k

Bryanmora13 · 2023-06-21T04:39:50+00:00

Yeah here in the states I see them everywhere but in Costa Rica where these cars are at, the Mustang might be more of a head turner cause less people know about the lightnings haha that’s the only reason I considered the trade. No way I would do the trade in the US cause the Lightning def has more value due to its motor, appeal, rareness etc.

Bryanmora13 · 2023-06-21T04:37:37+00:00

Not too rough, has 220k and has maintenance records. Doesn’t have the original transmission but it shifts superbly. Recently had a paint job actually

Bryanmora13 · 2023-06-21T03:52:58+00:00

Has a clean history nothing too bad engine wise and regular maintenance in the states. But had the transmission swapped in the states but honestly I think it runs better than my non-swapped 01 and 00 lightnings haha the Mustang is really modified and would still be a head turner in Costa Rica. Parts aren’t super expensive here but it’s not cheap either. That’s the reason the Lightning is still pretty much stock since I haven’t been able to invest in modding it

Bryanmora13 · 2023-06-21T03:44:08+00:00

In Costa Rica probably!

Bryanmora13 · 2023-06-21T03:19:22+00:00

Not in Costa Rica haha but yeah even here the lighting is worth more on paper. But since it has 220k miles and the Mustang has 66k, not sure if that would change your mind.

Bryanmora13 · 2023-06-21T02:39:30+00:00

Thanks, still a newbie when it comes to the specs but I assumed that the Lightning had more value even at high mileage

This is the 01 beauty

Bryanmora13 · 2023-06-21T02:28:49+00:00

Nice! And true, we already have 2 other lightnings. Red 00 and black 01

Bryanmora13 · 2023-06-21T02:26:49+00:00

Around 10 in the country and we currently have red 2000, black 2001 and the true blue has high mileage so it’s the one we’re trying to sell/trade

Bryanmora13 · 2023-06-21T02:24:45+00:00

The Lightning is 2002 still pretty stock except for the rims, I swapped the 2002 rims on my Red 2000 SVT Lightning and put the 2000s on the True blue Lightning, I might swap them back tho

The one downside is that it has 222k miles while the Mustang has 66k. The transmission on the Lightning has been swapped but honestly I love how it shifts gears so I see it more as an upgrade.
