I'm selling my Mustang! $90k and it's yours.

Had some fun with the cool weather. Rolled with a Hellcat and we were pretty even. Beat a few late model Mustangs as well. I love a good street ra.... err. I love participating in the local unsanctioned events.

Recently got to drive a 2019 GT350. No other car I have ever driven even remotely compares to how much fun that was.

That engine is just...incomprehensible for the price. Such a wild combination between the headroom-y, beefy, low-pitched American muscle car sound and the high-revving NA engines I normally lust over. A f***ing Mustang that redlines at 8250 rpm, and it sounds (and feels) great well before you reach that number.

My lord. My freaking lord.

I had a fire engine red fox body convertible with white leather interior. It was slow compared to my LSC which had some work done to it. But, I enjoyed driving it. Some lady cut me off making a left turn and I broadsided her. The thing is had I been driving like a maniac I probably would have avoided the accident. I was pretty banged up from it and the car was totaled.

parked next to a mustang EV and honestly it doesn't look too bad if judging it as a generic car w/out the Mustang name. it always surprises me how small it is.

I would never complain about it as just some crossover. It's an insult to the Mustang's heritage though.

Sold her this past weekend for $85k. Looking for something else to drive now.

what way are you leaning toward a new rig? The Japameese bike market is pretty hoy , especially mid 80s and 90s sport bikes,, so early 2000s say Honda RC51 will/should be the next to go mental.

Think I'm going to get a little two seat convertible. I would love to find a Honda S600 for sale. 600 CC, 57 horsepower, and revs to 11,000 RPM. Pretty close to a motorcycle. The car even uses a chain drive for the rear suspension.

Would love to buy a modern Mustang for my daily driver as well.

I've been thinking about the same but the market is crazy right now. I'm interested only in a Mach 1 with the Tremec and they're few and far between right now.

Is that the one with a super raspy exhaust sound?

It does have a more pronounced sound than the base Mustangs, that's for sure. Much better.

It has the naturally-aspirated (i loves me some NA Mustang V8) Voodoo flat-plane V8, makes over 500 hp and redlines at a touch over 8000 rpm. It's geared long so you get to hear it for a while. Definitely has body roll, maybe the 350R has less body roll but I can't attest to that and those are rare and expensive.
