Thanks for the compliments.

I just left the car wash and stopped to shoot some pics, there is more going on the car and once I get it done I will do some nice pictures and get it done properly.

As far as the 49k and laughing motion, the car lists at 49k I got it for 44k because of Ford family plan pricing here in Canada. Pissed me off waiting the extra 2 months for it to deliver as my trade value dropped in the meantime.

I'll get some decent pics up when the time comes.

So I guess you like to stretch the truth a little then? Occupational hazard?

I don't want some POS aftermarket rim on my $49,000 Mustang, so I guess I'm stuck with tires that won't hook like the Nitto will.

I wrote that BEFORE family pricing kicked in.

I had to wait for TWO extra months as the car sat on ramp 51.

That meant that by the time I got the car, the Ford family pricing kicked in which lowered the price to $44k.

I have 3k in wheels and tires on the car now and 3k in suspension I'm doing next week, so I guess I'm a little low now as that equals 50k.

44K?! Cars more expensive in canada? GT/CS sell for $37K here

List is $49,600 and change.

Cars are way more expensive here.

I can't buy an 11 GT500 for less than $62k with the equipment I wanted.

Hell everything is more expensive here!

Houses in my neighborhood range from 500-900k, a 2 liter of coke at the local 7-11 is $3.49, cigarettes are $14 a pack for premium brands. A 6 pack of beer is $15.00!

When I talk about housing costs? Remember we get to -35 in winter here and our summer type weather in Alberta lasts about 2 months in the 80 degree range you guys get.........so it ain't like this is resort country! This is basic living costs.

To give another idea on costs?

Those 4 Nitto's retail for $2300 up here, before tax.

two words....
fuck canada

:roflmao:

It's not all bad though, we make good cash, crime has dropped 11% for two years straight, if you can get past the liberal attitude and socialist views of our main political parties it's a great place to raise kids.

We also have 10% of your population, so that impacts everything hugely.

As far as buying parts and cars in general though we get screwed.

The 3k in suspension parts I mentioned is buying state side and shipping up here then paying to have installed. You could have it done down there for half that.

Holy shiit ford made my 2008 look that much better.

Can't argue with that logic, lol

I can't get past the water spots, dirt streaks, and ashy tires. It would look better if the owner cared enough to detail it before the pix and not have a black car with water all over it sitting out in the sun to spot up when it's that new.
