- I thought I'd do something a little different that just talking about my car. I know there are probably thousands of videos like this but here are, from my experiences, some things to look out for or be aware of when you are looking to purchase a 2005-2009 mustang.

Air filter? Fuel pump? Rust? Scratches on interior? Button wear? Torn seats? Wreck damage? Could you even BE more non-Mustang specific? These are things any casual buyer looks for in ANY car!
Marty Baker well actually the 05-09 mustangs are highly known to have these problems
What problems exactly? The generic problems I named off? What the heck am I missing?
Marty Baker no I'm just saying that the 05-09 mustangs are known for the torn leather which could happen to most cars. But it's also known HIGHLY for the door panels on the sides that tear off because of heat. This particular generation of Mustang is also a total pain to swap out spark plugs in. There are some shops that won't even change the plugs because there is such a long process in doing it.
So 2 things, gotcha.
there's a tool made specifically for these and triton engines which makes changing them when they are seized pretty easy
The main thing to look for on 05-07 Mustangs is water entering the cabin. The passenger kick panel hides the smart junction box computer. It's right below a common water entry point and not something that should ever get wet-expensive repair. Ford released a TSB on the leaking issues, but never did a recall, so owners are on their own. Also, the outside door handles stick open.
radsdad1 this issue is caused by clogged vent drains. Pull the plastic “screens” off under the wipers and use a flatblade screw driver to push debris out toward the bottom of the car and remove the rubber boots in the bottom.
Just fixed mine.. Pull the Cpu out and used an electronic spray to get off corrosion... hooked it back up. Works fine now.
My door handles pop out not sure how to fix it though
radsdad1 any way to make sure it’s protected from water?
The main thing to look for is does it have an engine
I'll tell you. Keep fresh oil in them and you will only need an alternator. 11 year owner l race at track. Won't break. Everything bulletproof on it!
I have owned my 2005 Mustang 4.0 since it was only 4 years old with 36,000 miles. It now has 170,000 miles. The only time it ever left me stranded was when the plastic thermostat housing cracked at 165,000 miles this year(Only $25). The CD player did go bad and wouldn't eject the CD. As preventive maintenance I replaced the motor mounts, transmission mount, all 4 brake pads, all 4 wheel bearings, all 4 shocks, coolant, transmission fluid, rear diff fluid, spark plug wires. I have always had to trickle gas into it, since I bought it.
I have owned my S197 that I bought new 15 years ago, and the only complaint I have with mine is the sagging interior door panels, which is a pretty common issue on these cars. Outside that, mine has been a really good car!
fix the door panels by spraying liner adhesive on the back of the insert...then use black screen spline to hold it in place.
Having had 2 for these, i think you have missed a major area to look at. It is a known issue with water leaking from the lower front windshield area and below on the passenger side. Bad sealing by the factory. When the leak occurs it hits the ECU, causing corrosion and possible shorting. Both of mine, 2005 and 2006 had this issue. Check the carpet right below the passenger kick panel for evidence of water leaking in. I fixed both.
How did you fix it
@@wildazme2006 First clean the drain so it is free of debris. I then used some silicone to seal the area the best I could.
@@wildazme2006 Most importantly, I place a plastic bag, I used a gallon zip lock bag. Lowered it for the top, it fit perfectly over the ECU. Problem solved.
Bro same lol its been like that for about 4 months now and I just put a tub so it collects the water lol 😆 it's works but I don't know how to fix
@@donnyc.3398 , look under hood on firewall, two rubber boots full of crap, remove those (evenly spaced kinda from both sides). 3" or so wide.. pop right out flush lightly at your wind shield with water and clear these passage ways immediately brotherman...
Ik one thing that happened on mine was the Mustang symbol on my steering wheel bubbled up... it was quite strange but other than that I've the car it for 10 years and it still runs great! Paint still looks new, no rust except for some bubbling on the hood like you said . But what I really love about my 07 is all the after market mods are available for this car , its a blast to work on
This guy can't even turn a wrench. Next.
Darryl Fraser his ac “condenser” makes a little noise.
@@josephscarborough708 then fix it nerd
@@bruhbiqw6237 I think he was being sarcastic as it's called a ac compressor
Leave the guy alone, he's only trying to help. I have all of these issues mentioned and many more
Read my comment.
This guy has no idea whats hes talking about. I have a 07 gt. None of these problems. Take care of the car.
Bernie Dixon I’m thinking about buying a 07 mustang 80k miles on it for 7k $ any advice?
JAY KAYNOE steal
@@jayroutewest good deal,,,i just bought an 07 this weekend with 30k on it and it has aftermarket mods...i cant wait to pick it up next week
@Fuckkrackkers Fuckkrackkers just get both
@@jayroutewest good ass deal Just take care of it and it will last you longer than my relationships
Bought my 09 GT new. Best car I ever owned. Been driving 45 years
This sounds more like just complaining like oh and this and oh the cup holder its just wear and tear every car gets that
Yeah it does
The paint bubbling is caused by the aluminum hood not being prepped properly. I have an 06 gt with 125k, I drive hard but do regular maintenance and no problems. Ugh those stock rims though.......
Buying an 06 tungsten gray gt tomorrow as long as it checks out fine. thanks for posting this vid. Catch you at the red light.
WegotTheBOMB hey boss I'm thinking of a 06 gt, are the spark plugs easy to get to.
i fixed my door panel leather with glue and a syringe. simple fix. i love my o7. only other problem ive had was the driver side heated seat stopped working. other then that ive had many miles of tire spinning fun in this car and it still runs great.
If you're not sure whether the hood is OEM or the original hood, check the bolts! Same goes for any other major body panels. Great advice, thanks!
There is a light in the headlight switch. It was burnt out in both the low miles 197's that I bought. If you are buying from a dealer and want EVERYTHING to work, you might want to look closely and see if it's dark. It's a bit if a pain to do yourself and if you are paying up make em' fix it. You will notice it is out at night.
Alternator and front hub bearings are common. If cam phaser is going with close to 170000 miles might as well do a top end rebuild. Not hard to do but a good mech can help. Breaks need upgraded they get soft when driving hard or long period of time.
So basically what you look for in any car ..not to be a negative guy but this was not specific so much to the mustang...I had never heard of paint bubbling though...what I would be MORE concerned about is anyone who put a HURST sticker on the dash ... ugg...besides tacky, it means they were most likely the type to beat the snot out of it.
I have an 08 GT/CS so spared me the plug issue (they switched in Dec. 2007) - My car is pristine at 67K miles - and I am a firm believer in FIX it before its bad so I did the VCT solenoids ,Plugs, Coils, Trannie fluid, differential fluid and since I did the VCT's and had the valve covers off, I painted them ford blue and added the 4.6L emblems. My point is every car with 120K plus miles will not be perfect unless you are like me and cared for it...which is rare.
Mine and many others have the paint bubbling on the edge of the hood. It's the way the 2 skins of the hood come together and causes it to hold moisture and rot from the inside.
I see if with certain color paints more than others. Dark Blue, as beautiful as it is, tends to suffer from bubbling.
I'm thinking about buying one of these cars but the more I research the more nervous I get. So far I've read about:
1. Electrical issues(corroded computers, alternators)
2. Water leaking through the dash
3. Gas gauge that doesn't always work(stepper motors, fuel sending unit)
4. Door panels are glued on and will almost certainly fall off
It seems like the list just keeps growing. I'm tired of slow Japanese cars, but I'd rather go slow than be forced to become an amateur mechanic...
TwisTed Taipan just stay with the imports or go gm. Im so tired of import guys getting mustangs to bridge over to v8's
Give me 10 grand so I'll have enough to buy a Corvette. Believe me, a Mustang isn't my first choice. They're just affordable, plentiful, and parts are cheap.
This is old but it's never too late for a nice comment. Your tips are were nice but just kinda general, I'd only assume you didn't have extensive knowledge of mustangs at the time of filming. Still, this video will play a part in my upcoming purchase so thanks!
I've had my 2007 GT California Special since it was new, it has 74,000 miles, mechanically I've had no issues other than the normal serviceable parts, cosmetically the front edge of the hood, the paint has bubbled up & chipped, the interior trim on the door panels came loose about 5 years into ownership & the rear view mirror started the de-laminate around the edges.
That's a fair amount of miles and it still looks good . I have a 05 , but it only has 26000 miles so I'm not a good judge of what will happen on one with 130000. miles . The hoods have paint problems because it's aluminum and wasn't treated correctly before paint ,mine had a couple of places five years ago , easily fixed . The leather door insert comes off on them all , replaced mine with kit from Predator Mustang inc. , Spark plugs need to be cleaned about every 10000 miles to keep the carbon down on the part below the threads so they will always be easy to remove . Rubber pinion snubbers will need replacing on rear-end housing , they deteriorate easily, on lowered cars cause a rattle noise . The e brake cable needs to be oiled , sticks easily. It's a great car , but like any other it needs regular maintenance .
These cars are suppose to be good for 250,000-300,000 miles which is a lot. I'll never reach that much in my life. My VW has 300k on it but I only did 60k on it.
I have the 2007 convertible your car is very clean for the year and mileage, you shouldn't complain, also some one has done the Hurst upgrade to the car, good thing. You didn't start the car so I can not tell if the cams were changed.
I have a 06 I bought three years ago with 27k miles....Ive Had the alternator go out at 48k the AC clutch at 55k......I paid 11k for car.....it was very clean.....Its a automatic.
Ive replaced the plugs with Brisk over the crappy Ford brand and the coils with Accel super
I put on the cold air kit from Ford so it turned it into a Bullitt with the ford cat back exhaust.....and Koni shocks...now I have to run high Octane gas and use Mobil 1 5w 30
The rims were replace with Ford racing i got on sale and run Continental tires....thats have 30k on them and still have maybe 20k left.....the car has almost 59k miles now.
I changed the rear end to 3.73 with Ford Racing kit and put on Ford Racing Cam and springs.
Its 321 HP at the Rear wheel now ......up from 258. forgot the Ford racing throttle body too....
0-60 is 4.8......top speed 145? to 150mph
Rear bearings. Had two of these both needed change out under 50K. Plus suggest have Ford Service do oil and lube service at least occasionally so they hit the shifter points and other Ford checks. 2022, do you still have it? I still have 08’ GT convertible. 54K miles
I own 2 both are 05’s a GT coupe and a Saleen convertible no problems of any kind but the are super low mileage cars both bought new and are not daily drivers. Not my first but liked this body. Both are kept in a very nice garage. Would take for them as I am 70+ years old and have other toys
I bought an 06 V6 Premium Trim convertible with very low mileage, a true 1 little old lady driven car, and have 2 of the problems here (knock wood). The hood on these Mustangs is aluminum and apparently it is not painted and/even primed correctly from the factory. Mine has a few small " divets " in the leading edge of the hood as well as bubbling on the underside of the hood.
The other problem? I have the Shaker 500 factory stereo and one of the buttons is missing, not quite sure what it controls as I rarely use a radio in my cars anymore. According to one used auto parts yard, there are nearly a dozen different radio/stereo systems used in these cars (not sure I believe that) and consequently they won't sell my a radio for this car, even though I explained that I just want 1 button, unless I have the numbers off the back of my current radio.
As near as I can tell (and I check reasonably often), no water intrusion, but I try to be scrupulous about keeping the cowl area clear of debris.
Do you have any idea what you're talking about most of the things you mentioned either are very simple fixes are not a major problem at all
I'm not able to find this info but I noticed that a bunch of these have hood scoops. That can't be a premium feature though because some premiums don't have it. Is it some sort of package?
This is what Ford says about the bubbling Aluminum.
According to the TSB, “Some vehicles may exhibit a bubbling or blistering under the paint on
aluminum body parts. This is due to iron contamination of the aluminum panel. . . . Ford’s
Scientific Research Laboratory has performed a number of tests on vehicle body parts returned
for corrosion related concerns. Testing has revealed that the aluminum corrosion was caused
by iron particles working their way into the aluminum body part, prior to it being painted.”
CAS Executive Director Clarence Ditlow said:
“This is a very expensive defect to remedy. The TSB requires “extreme care to be taken”
including special tools and segregated work areas to remove the corrosion by blasting,
repriming and repainting. This repair is so difficult that CAS recommends the best fix is to
replace the corroded part with a primed steel part and paint it. Ford cannot guarantee this repair
will eliminate all the iron corrosion or prevent other areas from bubbling or blistering in the
future. I had mine fixed and 2 years later it showed up exactly in the same spot and the same pattern.
You can simply pull the wires off the plugs and inspect them if you no what ur doing
I own a 09 GT, Convertible, great car !
Clusters might go bad on the 05s, Check the radiator cap, Cam Phasers, always change batteries on older cars, check spark plugs (theyre a bitch to remove and they might break which sucks ass), fuel pump, oil filter gaskets leaks. I got the 05 GT with 133k miles and I have to fix something almost every week, but its always fun to fix up old cars.
Good thing mine isn’t burning oil I run royle purple in it my roller follower did fail at 97k it eat up the camshaft I had to replace both cams an 24 roller followers rockers oem timing chain phasers tensioners meling high volume oil pump now it sounds like a new engine again no more ticking
That red looks really good
Hey, I know this video is like five years old and it doesn't really matter because the answer to this question won't really mean much, but I figured I'd ask as long as I'm here even though I'm not really expecting an answer. There's a bit in the video that mentioned getting the rear quarter panel replaced, and I wanted to ask how much it costed to have that done. I'm currently trying to find what will become my first project car. I want it to be an S197, and I have my eyes on a 2006 4.0 automatic convertible w/ 80k miles for $5000 at a rebuild yard. The damage is relatively minimal, except the left rear quarter is totally smashed. A new quarter is like $200 at a parts pull lot, but actually getting it installed is the hard part and it's something that is supposedly really difficult to do so it's recommended to have a shop do it. Mustang forum posts from a decade ago say it'll cost like $2k-5k to get that quarter cut out and a new one welded in, but all of the body shops near me refuse to give a quote on a car that I don't actually own yet so at this point it'd basically be me buying a $5000 car and hoping it'll be less than $2000 to fix because at that point why not just buy one that's $7000, doesn't need fixed, and doesn't have a rebuilt title.
07 with 10,000 miles ,thinking about selling it,i had dozen of people tell me how pretty it is ,hate to sell it but it just sits under carport
Well with regard to this video when I purchased by 2007 in 2014 there was bubbling as mentioned but in was on the underside of the hood. The fix was easy which was to sand off the bubbling then spray some etch primer on the area and brush on touch up paint. As for the interior yes the dash and door parts are somewhat cheap but you have to remember the basic concept of the Ford Mustang was to produce a reasonably cheap sport's muscle car in 1964 that everyone could afford, that thinking as remained constant. Having said this there are many interior aftermarket parts available. For example I have carbon fiber overlay on my dash and have changed out the Shaker stereo to a Kenwood Bluetooth. As for dirt on the rear panels at the wheels mudflaps take care a lot of dirt the sprays up from the road. Great American Muscle Car considering it's original concept.
Which Kenwood did you install in your Mustang? Just bought an 05 and have been doing small fixes all over
love the wheels
Man that thing looks so good
I don’t know if this is Florida thing or what. But my 2005 mustang gt rear driver panel paint is slowly oxidizing fading. The rear bumper is completely gone. The passenger side still looks brand new. I don’t know if this is common or it was in an accident before I got the car and the respray is failing.
A different way to look at a practially undriven 06 loaded GT/auto with 3000 miles garaged on it. Impulse buy then shortly after a injury led to the car being garaged and driven just enough to keep the juices flowing. 1/ The bat unless put on a trickle charger WILL die in 2-3 days. Official response from Ford's elec eng "Drive it more". 2/ Placed in PARK, it will need rattled to go into park.3/ At 6 yrs the side panel material peeled off. Local pro said he had done over 100 Stangs and replaced the foam,reglued the orig mint material for $225.4/ The pass door autolocks and after enough times of yanking up on it thinking it is unlocked many stay partially open. It is more of a eyesore but I aint taking the door apart to fix it.5/ Airbag recalls. Dropped by 2 dealers 3x and they were either to busy or out of the parts. Numerous phone tags with maint and After 10 yrs, screw it. Stock Pzeros were replaced after 10 yrs because of age. Looked brand new again with 3 grand on them. That said, replaced them with identical ones and it was night and day. The "old tires were hard and brittle where as the new made the car feel 100x better. Don;t stretch out even great looking, low mile tires. So yeah if you rarely if ever drive it you should not have to many problems. Lastly and as we all know. 1/4 tank = EMPTY so fill it up and ignore the computer.
My 06 started to rust right at the spot he is talking about. It’s just bubbled. Hate it so much.
Man I have a 2005 GT thats super clean, no problems whatsoever & I am looking to add a bolt on super charger after all these years!
That cooling canister looks horrible need to clean that Jami it will throw a code with dirty antifreeze message with your sensor and doesn't allow it to register the temperature right therefore throwing the code
Do you know any thing about cars
Girl.
Didn't even finish this whiny vid. Made it to 1:31 & made up my mind...
I had an '07. Lost it in my divorce, somehow... Still scratching my head on that... But, eventually fate smiled upon me, and I came across a cream-puff 05, and bought it. I figured it would be identical to the '07, but two things I discovered immediately, which was a little disappointing: The '05 does not have a TPSM system. Also, it does not have an external audio port in the arm rest storage, but you can buy a kit to add one. My '05 DOES have the same issues with the leather door panel peeling, and the four-gauge setup where two of the gauges seem to have a mind of their own. Good to know that can be replaced for not too much money.
I would have fried the clutch before she took possession of it. Prove that it was you and that would be a quick $1,500 fuck you to her.
Fuck bitches. That’s why I’m not getting married an spend my time on things that are more worth it. Relationships/marriage is a bad financial decision and almost never ends good. Fuck that. I bought myself a 52 thousand dollar car and a house and I’m 19. If I was married, had a girlfriend, kids, etc. do you think I could do that? FUCK no. Fuck bitches. Not worth it at all
This was helpful. Thanks from a customer just entering the market.
It is painful to watch this video. My 2007 Mustang GT Premium is in so much better condition. He has a valid point with the spark plugs. They are a two piece design that can crack in half when you remove them. I just had aftermarket spark plugs installed after I bought mine with 37,000 miles on it. I wanted to avoid any problems and there weren't any broken plugs when mine were changed at that mileage. I have a red and black interior with a redfire exterior and I have had no problems with any paint bubbling on the inside or outside of my aluminum hood or trunk lid. His car seems to have been abused over the years.
Hi to fix your seat you need to get some red shoe polish and some good leather treatment
Here are the real issues now. Stock struts wear fast, swaybar or rather anti-swaybar endlinks wear fast, V6 doesn't even come with a rear swaybar, but one can be bolted on. I had vent actuators die, I had most of the engine peripherals replaced, pvc valve, egr valve, throttle body encoder, thermal valve for the coolant leaked, AC compressor makes noise like you are supercharged (but works fine). Powertain bearings make noise like you are on nitrous-oxide around 2k to 2.2k RPM. Rear bearings die every 30k, diff gears wear fast. Stock handling of the vehicle is terrible, I had to place front and rear tower braces, two cross braces, and weld subframe connectors. Oh and calipers can seize, caliper alignment pins are easily broken. Had a K-member replaced, the stock had too much flex. Stock control arms wear fast. Power steering pump wears causing vibration in the steering wheel. There's more I just can't remember now. Yeah, engine mounts wear fast, and the mount brackets are idiotically placed. The trans mount cannot be removed without removing the exhaust or angle grinding some of the exhaust supports. Electronics on this car are terrible, I've gone through 3 alternators, the current higher current one seems to work with the inverter unit from the stock one. I would also suggest swapping the driveshaft for the aluminum one. All in all, minus the interior and the body, my car is 20% left original Mustang (the engine mostly, oh the timing chain tensioners wear and break easily), everything else is swapped. I would also suggest a watts link, or at least an adjustable panhard. After years of work I can finally say this car is a sports car, it used to be just a Mustang.
Plugs and coils replaced? Why? If nothing wrong with them and they as strong as new , you don't have to
Mym05 4.0 Mustang is the best car I have eve3r owned !!
Take out the drainage nipples under the windshield wiper cowls. They clog with debris, just take them out. Upper window rubbers (between the roof and top of door windows will leak. Cheap fix, pain in the a$$. Thermostat housings, being plastic pieces glued together start leaking. I think there is an aftermarket aluminum one to be had out there...Can't say if it's any good. But plastic ones will probably need replacing multiple times if you keep it long enough. No big deal.SNOW TIRES (Firestone Winterforce) or you will not enjoy snow much at all.
The Biggest thing to look out for is the timing chain tensioner "cassettes". Around 140,000 is when they like to break. NOT a fun job. I sold mine do to that issue. Other than that fun reliable car that is plenty fast.
I have to agree. This guy sounds uninformed. Like he is just guessing about everything!
🤣🤣😂😂 I bought a 06 cali Gt had the same issue with the drivers side blinker light but I had mine fixed with a bolt
How did your interior get so beat up ?? You been wearing sandpaper tuxedos to work or nah? Lol my 05 is still mint and flawless
Good for you
If this guy couldn’t tell when his plugs and coils needed to be changed how tf can you even listen to what he says to look out for when buying a 5th gen NEXT!!
I can't finish this video.
I paused it at 1 minute and done
Cam phasers wouldn't be an issue .... First thing to do is cam that 3v anyways lol
Nick Glenn yeah they are , 3v engines are pos engines
S197 will become highly collectors cars
My main problem on my 07 is I go through thermostat Housings like crazy! Probably one a year but the lifetime warranty I got from advanced auto let’s me do free exchanges for new...idk what the issue is though.
My thermostat housing crapped out on my 07 just last week.. yours keeps getting breaking on a norm?
scott kesterson yeah man. I’ve had my 07 for 7 years this June. I’ve gone through maybe 5-6 of em. The plastic the housing is made of...cracks and is a design flaw for all s197s I was told. I recommend getting lifetime warranties with any you buy. I’ve only had to pay for one with the warranty
Henry Gonzalez off topic though but are you into car audio for your 07? Was just curious if you are because I was going to see if you had a custom subwoofer box built or just bought a random pre-fab? The trunk is so small you can’t get hardly any sub boxes to fit properly
scott kesterson I did just a regular box and secured it with screws. I have all kicker 6x9s and a 10 inch comp R
Could just buy a aluminum housing
We have the same garage, I have a 2007 mustang gt and a 2003 Audi A4 3.0
TheB6Guy oh damn we got the same garage too I have a 2006 mustang gt and a 2005 audi. A4 3.0
Also these heads have problems with spark plugs the face to be fixed often and I'ts expensive
Thanks a lot this video really helped saved me 150 to 250 bucks
Brake and gas pedal are too close to each other. Not safe to drive the way the pedals are designed and engineered. I have a pretty grabber orange 08 with black interior but I don't trust this car. It's a great running car but try smashing into somebody at an intersection when your gas is on the floor and you are standing on the brake or seeing your tires smoking when you are at an intersection with cars in front of you. I'm a great driver and always was so know it's not my driving. Had a 65 Austin Healey that was fast but the car never got away from me or got me hurt. I love the grabber orange convertible but I would think hard before I bought another Mustang. Ford may not care about my life with all that safety belt jive but I do. It's not that appealing an idea to have your car revving at top speed and having a shot gun go off in my face when it smashes into some family in the car in front of me. Glad I have the v-6 and not the 5.0 or you would not be reading this.
William Johns you’re full of shit or a bad driver or both lol
Those are the best mustang right now I got me one my got body kit

How would you check for this?
Don’t forget about the water leak issues they all have.

do the gt's have a open diff or lsd
Look out for scratches...
I enjoyed the tour of the red mustang. Fun game: Shots every time "Buttah" is mentioned. This car is "Butter". Cool white shifter knob Hurst I am guessing from the dash. Www.911rescuediver.com
I am looking into mustang s197 but what the fuck am i reading on the forums?? People say 100k is a lot? Are american cars really so shit? 200k would be more like the end of a car. not 100k lmao that is low milage for a vehicle????
ZekeMagnum my mustang has 200k and it runs strong just depends on the owner. In the forums you will get a lot of prick kids or angry old dudes that think that if their car has more than 100k on it then it's just a can
Lol 100k is not a lot of miles a damn car don't usually break all the way in until around 80k my first mustang went over 250k with just regular maitance done to it , I have a 09 now and only have 70k on it
my 06 has 170k never left me stranded.
Mine has 130k and it runs good so you'll be fine with buying a 100k mile s197
My 06 GT has 120K. Runs STRONG and I drive it like a Mustang.
That's the stock hood are u kidding me
This guy needs a check up from the neck up. He has no clue what he is talking about,the car has 125000 miles on it. I guess he was so scammed when he bought and paid a lot of money all he wanted was a Red Mustang.
I think he is a bent Dip Stick!! LOL!
Everything he said are stuff that goes bad after awhile
My 06 mustang GT convertible was $2000.00 with 50 k on the clock... Door panels, some dings and scratch's.... Don't care
Dang and I'm looking at an 08 gt for 5000.. gonna try and get that down a bit lol

Try focusing on issues instead of opinions.
the 1970's dangerous suspension is the main thing u need to look out for.
