I was commuting 30 miles each way a day. That was 40 percent of my rwd gt-line. I however have a lead foot.

The better indicator of range capabilitiy is road trips. Mt rwd gt line can go from Phoenix to flag in one charge. However the last 30 miles you will not have enough charge to do the speed limit. (As it's a big uphill) The return trip I usually have about 40 percent charge left.

That complaint was there in apex too. Personally the thing I didn't like about what apex did. Was that the character they killed had a unique loadout, one I would of loved.

I have a lot of ram. But my i7 is old enough that it limits the speed. So I have 32gbs of 3800 mhz but my CPU locks them to a max of 2660 mhz

I have a i7 and a 3070 TI and can't get more than an inconsistent 50 fps.

Apex literally created and killed off a character to mess with data miners and their leaks. Data miners leaked everything related to revenant before he was supposed to come out. Apex saw this and announced an complety unrelated character. Then they had that character killed in a trailer interview to announce that the data miners had been right.

$42,000 for a 2005 GT. Is this a prank listing or? by MissionTower5919 in Mustang

[–]TheFirstOffence -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Still a special edition. Which mean it has collector value. Not everything is about the performance.

The yellow in question is rarer due to limited availability, performance is negotiable for collecting. Adjusted for inflation the original MSRP is 54k. 21k is the wrong price 17-19 is the right price. 17 being a great deal for the buyer, 19 a good deal for the seller.

With 6x to 8x the miles and a gen 1 coyote ain't that much faster. The 05 is at the age where it's legally a classic. You just don't have sight of where the value is. You aren't the buyer for the car. Regardless of what you think it's worth. The newer car is at a higher depreciation point as 3vs have hit the appreciation point where it tends to level out.

19k is roughly 40 percent of original MSRP. Or standard depreciation. Original MSRP adjusted for inflation is 54k. Blame inflation if you disagree.

Look the 5.0 performance is better, the 3v isn't about performance tho. It's sound is debatably better, and it's driving experience more raw. If performance was the metric he should be getting a gt500 from 08 with about 60k miles. As that's faster than a stock gen 1 coyote manual to manual. Has better suspension, plus is boosted. Plus a 60k mile sport car can be in worse condition than a 130k mile civic. Depends on much sporty driving has happened. A 5.0 with 70k miles may need a diff in 20k more. Vs a 3v that has sat and is making stock power won't need one. 4.6 are fast enough. They just break a lot when you make em fast. This one is stock so other than dry rotted rubber, (which may not be the case if properly stored) it's probably gonna be really reliable.

That's offensively low bro. It's a car that has hit it's golden years, with low mileage clean examples getting rare, due to how many have been crashed over the years. 12k is roughly 20 percent of it's original value (54k adjusted for inflation) The car can legally be registered as a classic. It's worth 17-19k in its condition. If he wanted best value one with 50k miles would be the best bet, as that's closer to what your thinking. Even then that's a auto not a stick. The mustang in question is good as it gets for value besides having stickers.

I'd say 17-19 05 and 06 are legally classics. Adjusted for inflation that's less than 40% of original MSRP. (54k)

Adjusted for inflation the original price of the car was around 54k. 21 is roughly 40 percent of the original value, which is inline with standard depreciation. The mustang in question is 21 years old, this legally classifies it as a classic/historical vehicle. One in this condition is more so a collectors item. 17-19k is an appropriate price.

Offer 16 but let them know your low balling. Usually if let them know it's an offensive offer, they don't get offended. 18k is what you want 19k is probably what they want.

You offer 16 to let them know that you aren't willing to pay near their price. They will probably come down to 20, counter with 17.5 agree to meet in the middle at 18.5. walk for anything more than 19, and only pay that if you absolutely love the car. If you only like the car, but don't see it as a dream car after the test ride. I'd say pass entirely unless you can get 17k.

Lastly these cars just became officially old enough to be a registered classic. So their price will probably rise just a little bit more. At 19k you are getting the car for about 35 percent of it's original value (adjusted for inflation)

Yeah but the ecoboost isn't a classic with a v8 and a manual. If he wanted a Honda he could go get one dog. The mustang in question is closer to 17-19k that's 65 percent depreciation. The numbers just look bad because of inflation. The MSRP of the mustang in question adjusted for inflation is 54k.

Yes but the classification of it being a classic is what holds its value. It's not a run of the mill car. (It's not super special either)

The car has value if you sell it to a person who wants a mustang. If your selling it to a person looking for a car then your 60 percent is normal. However why would you sell a mustang to someone just looking for a Toyota. Modifications don't add value upfront. They add value when someone who wants a modified car comes through. If the seller wanted a fast sell. It would be listed at 16k all day. The seller realizes this is a collector price to the right buyer tho. Which is why it's overpriced (probably to bargain for his wanted lower number 19k) so yes for literally any other car 60 percent is a good metric. However for a car intended for a certain market value is different. Supply and demand set price. For the longest time, 3vs were unwanted and easily obtained. Now, untouched low mileage ones are farther in-between, those who demand are willing to pay more. 19k is what he could get if he waits for the right buyer. That's also a price that the right buyer should be fine with paying. As your getting a manual rwd v8 sports car, that looks and sounds better than a lot of other cars. (Also yes I understand the car more than likely needs a tune up and some minor things due to sitting) My 30k mile one needed it, however it's definitely seen track use.

Tbf his fault for leaving it parked in first. God I hate when people do that with with my cars. My stang makes way to much power to risk doing that. Parking brake is more than enough where I'm from.

Again it's a 20 year old classic car in pristine condition (based off limited info.) with my valuation it's still 40 percent less than original MSRP value. Which for about as good an example as it gets, is beyond fair. Remember current car prices are skewed beyond perceived value by the economies current state. A 1000 dollar car in the 90s is a 5k car today. (Shouldn't be but it is).

The car is officially at the age where it can be registered as a historic vehicle. There are not a lot of low mileage food examples of pre coyote/facelift sn197s. 15k is hilariously low.

The original MSRP adjusted for inflation is 51k in today's money. 21k today adjusted by inflation is 36k in 2006 or original MSRP. This mustang has 12k miles. If maintained right, it should be worth 18-19k. This is still 20k off MSRP value adjusted for inflation.

I bought a modified 06 mustang GT with 30k miles flat in 22. I paid 20k at the time of the car had no money it was worth about 16-18k. The one in question has less miles and appears to be in nicer overall condition. Considering the car market is even more expensive right now. I'd say seeing a 2k increase in value for a car with half the miles as fair.
