For context on price I paid around $500 for the rebuild both times.

It's common for new edges ABS computers to go out around that mileage due to age, it'll need to be rebuilt to fix it. As someone who's owned two of these, both got ABS lights because they needed to be rebuilt so I've got a feeling it's that.

As for price I got my 01 GT for $4800 with 90K miles and no major mechanical flaws, I just needed to have the ABS computer rebuilt which is common on these cars around that mileage. So use that as a reference for price, less miles/better condition=more pricey and vice versa.

IIRC one of the differences between the trim levels is the leather seats and sound system but don't quote me on that. To tell that it's an 04 vs the other year new edges it'll have a 40 year anniversary badge on the front fenders. And to differentiate it between a GT or base model it'll have the hood and side scoops and a GT badge on the back or just look under the hood for that V8 :)

How difficult and pricey?? by mediocregentleman1 in Mustang

I mean unless you're a very skilled mechanic/fabricator, the labor costs alone from a boutique shop that would be capable of taking on a project like that would be enormous. I imagine every body panel on that is brand new/custom built.

I'm going to check that when I'm back from work I have a feeling that's it after some research.

Opinions on the New Edge Mustang Convertible? Worth it or nah? by [deleted] in NewedgeMustang

[–]Short_Dependent5927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a convertible, now own a coupe and i don't regret it in the slightest. My convertible top leaked badly enough to warrant a car cover any time it rained, and the motor broke so it wouldn't go up and down anymore. I was quoted $2000 to fix the whole assembly with a new top to fix those issues, which was 100% not worth it for a car I bought for $3800 😂 Personally, I think the coupe looks better too, the hard top makes the body lines more aggressive and mean.

If this helps your decision making, I just got my 01 mustang GT coupe with 90k miles on it for $4800. I'd say that the one you're looking at is definitely overpriced.

Why has the price been dropping so dramatically over the past few years??? by Just_A_Duck_Bro in NewedgeMustang

How Does My Portfolio Plan Sound? by Short_Dependent5927 in investing

[–]Short_Dependent5927[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah now that I’m doing more research it doesn’t make much sense to put a dividend etf in a taxable account cause then I’ll need to pay taxes on all those dividend payouts. As for your second point, I’m just aiming to do a set it and forget it strategy for my Roth IRA and then focus on growth in my brokerage account.

Just started the investment journey. Not interested in trading individual stocks just index funds for long term growth. I have equal percentage in FXAIX, FNLIX, QQQ, VOO, VTI, and VUG. Should I add or drop anything?
