Just a dash for flavor…. Used car prices steer toward Fed Chairman Powell’s inflation hunch Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Lots of good discussion here but my opinion as an informed automotive retailer is that the 13/14 GT500 values are up just as every used vehicles value is up due to COVID induced supply disruptions. This is a unique one time situation and much of this used vehicle market value inflation will...

If op builds a proper 5.8L I’ll give $50k [emoji23] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah we clearly disagree. It’s all good though. To each his own. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If you own any asset resale always has to be a consideration to some degree. I point out the cars value as the impairment to said value is much greater than say a $3500 4cyl Fox body. Many buy the 2011+ GT500’s for the lighter weight aluminum block and many spend for the 13/14 for the added...

I disagree. Built JDM 5.8L alum shortblock is $11k. He may need cylinder heads either way but if an iron 5.4L built shortblock is $6k I’m spending that extra $5k all day long for the proper aluminum 5.8L engine. It’s a $45k+ car not a 4cyl swap fox body. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was simply saying if your already committing to spending $30k over 3yrs why not go balls to the wall and push $40k with all the goodies. Top notch everything. I’m not condoning the spend in your situation but if your going big then legitimately go big! Now, given that your still planning to...

Devil here again [emoji83]. Don’t put a 5.4L in your 13/14 GT500. I’m looking for a modded 13/14 now to purchase and if it doesn’t have an aluminum 5.8L in it (as came originally) I’m swiping right by. Yeah you may save $5k now but I believe at some point you’ll regret it. Sent from my...

I agree at this point “**** it” go all out!! CNC the heads and add some moderate cams while your at it. If you spend $30k what is $40k at that point? Big KB, best shortblock, fully CNC’d cylinder heads, custom streetable cams, etc. You already have a top notch Griggs suspensión. If your...

I’ve never been a fan of the 03/04 Cobra aesthetics. Fox coupe w all the goodies would be my first choice but either like finding a needle in a haystack to buy (plus $30k+) or a major project to undertake to build. 13/14 GT500s I’m super familiar w and if the right modded one hits the market...

I think including new heads in a fresh 5.8L engine build you will easily be $25k+ with a shop doing all the tuning/labor. L&M’s built 5.8L long block goes for $35k online w all the goodies. Just budget accordingly and scrutinize that quote for completeness. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Interesting though driver mod could be a major factor in that scenario. Dude may just be very conservative driver or new to open track? 830whp GT350 should easily pull away from a C63S on a long straight although in right sections that C63S w power to weight ratio and efficient auto trans is...

Hmmmm interesting. Given the market demand and seemingly minimal supply of mint fox coupe resto mods I was thinking the opposite. Prices only seem to be going higher and quickly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah could be ideal but finding the right built 92/93 coupe is extremely difficult in the current environment. I would be willing to pay $25k - $35k for a legit/built turnkey 700rwhp+ streetcar if I could find it. Plus I’m not an auto guy so has to be T56 or minimum Tremec 3550. Building it...
