This is tempting.......very tempting

I was going to post the same question, but did not because when I looked at the front lip, it looked different than what Nick has in his sig, at least from what I can see.

Yeah the one in my avatar is a generic pic I found. Yeah I put the GT/CS front bumper on just shy of a year ago. I loved the look and how it turned out though!

Hell you could have bought if from me when I was looking to get rid of it for $19000. Also to let you know, it is running, or did when I traded it in, a VMP Tune, and smaller blower pulley. It makes 430 to the wheels and 422 lbs of torque. And requires 93 octane!

Full gauges inside, Autometer Wideband A/F and Boost gauges...

For exhaust, when I traded it in, it had Pypes Long Tube Headers, O/R H Pipe, welded in Resonators, and Borla Stingers

If I can answer anything more about it let me know, I will tell you how it was when I traded it into Beach Ford!

I am excited that you are the one to own it. Im gonna go talk to them this weekend and see what i can work out. Its a sweet looking ride and love the numbers it makes. With knowing you only got 19 im sure i could get it for around 21 or so. We'll see what happens and i'll let you guys know on it. Thanks for the info man!!!

No problem!!

I don't think anyone messed with it, as the milage is just about the same as it had when I traded it in. They must have trucked it up to Fredricksburg, because it is a haul from here in VA Beach. I'll look at the paperwork tomorrow.

Oh and it has ford racing black wrinkle finish valve covers, ever since the blower it has only ran Royal Purple 5W-20 and Royal Purple Oil Filters, every 5000 miles. I left the SCT X3 in the car with the VMP tunes for the blower and the Brenspeed Tunes for a NON BLOWERED car. The PCM was sent to Roush for the flash when I installed the blower, so if you return it to stock you are going back to the Roush tune, at which point you would need to put on a stock GT air box and change the pulley back to the stock Roush pulley. Not sure why you would, the car ran like a fucking champ and never had an issue. The Boost gauge is an electronic boost gauge. When I traded it in, it was running 1 step colder NGK plugs, approx 3000 miles old. Has hood struts installed. All speakers except for the door subs were upgraded to JL Audio 3 way Coaxial. Currently running NAV MAP DISC 9P or 10P, I forget, but recent.

If I think of anything else I will let you know.

I put A LOT of love and work into the car, for a daily driver, that was never beat on or tracked, BUT I did drive is spiritedly, it looks and runs in awesome condition!! I hope it goes to a great home and that person enjoys and loves it the way I did!!

Thanks again for all the info man!! If i get it i will for sure have to come down there and have lunch with you to get some more info and so you can see it. If you go and look at my recent post history you can clearly see i take care of the cars i get and the 2 mustangs i have owned. I hope i can get my hands on it with no down-payment but we'll see. Cars are tough to get ahold of and the interest rates suck on them now. I love what you've done with it and would prob keep it how it sits now to DD to and from work (25 miles round trip) and have some fun on the weekends.

Guys lol, i dont want a new body style or even an old body style for that matter. I love the 05-09 body styles. And he just said he got 19k for it, you really think im gonna pay 25? lol

They are either going to work with you and sell it, or leave it on the lot for what they are asking and never get it. Chances are they will work with you. I wasn't an idiot, when I went to get rid of it, I knew I would be lucky to get $19K in a private sale, thanks to the 5.0's coming out. The bottom end just dropped out on the 4.6L's and nobody wants them. The trade started low but that same day I put in on Craigslist for $19K and I told myself if the dealership gave me $19K trade we could make a deal and it would be just the same as if I sold it private sale, and they did.

Dealers do not count the 'extras' when they are considering the trade. The trade in value is based on a stock, non-modified car. Redundant, I know but, when they are taking a car like this Bullitt and putting a price tag on it that is not that far from the price for a new car. I would at least ask them why they want so much for it.

The fact that it's a Bullitt will add to the cost but, not that kind of cost. If they say: 'Well, it has all these goodies on it', I would remind them, that's not a consideration when they deal for a trade. I believe the most they should get out of it is 22k. That's it. Anything higher is getting into 'sucker' territory, IMO.

When I traded in my '01 Bullitt, I got top bluebook for it. That's as much as anyone would go. For a 9 year old car, I couldn't argue with that.

That's a killer ride and hope a reasonable deal can be made for it. I'd pass on it if they wanted more than 22k for it though.
