a friend of mine bought #2.. he contacted that guy that got #1.. guy told him someone offered him $40k more then what he paid for it and he didnt sell it, and hes racing it and running the piss out of it.. lol
His goal is to sell the 0001 car with enough profit to pay it off and buy another boss. I'm confident he can do it too. This is why he turned down the 40K above cost offer. I would have too. This car will sell for over 100,000.
yeah you have no idea how glad i am this is over. i didn't list the car out of a desire to make money off it, i found out late last week i was losing a huge chunk of my income. my saving grace was that i had a huge amount of disposable income before the 50% pay cut and little debt, but no matter how i worked it i couldn't find a way to keep the Boss and take care of the family. i didn't want to sell that car and had all intentions of keeping it, hell i was heading to eagle canyon raceway in dallas this weekend with the car.
the blessing here was that i happened to have found #0001 and a buyer not 30 minutes from me with the means and a mustang collection to keep me in a mustang at all. each time that auction went up i was thinking, well at least now i will still be able to buy a used termi, it went up more and I thought, wow maybe i can get a 10GT like my old one back, it went up again and i thought hey now i can get a 11GT, and it just kept going until the buyer stepped in and i ended up with the same thing i had.
It's a bit more than hitting the lottery. The real shocker to me was that with this pay cut, that 10 GT i traded would have had to go too. if i hadn't traded the 10 on this car, not only would i not have a mustang, but the bank would have had my 10 in a few months too, my credit would be ruined, and who knows when i would have been able to get back in a mustang. And if my boss wasnt #0001 i would have never been able to get enough to get in another mustang after payoff of that car either, assuming it sold enough for payoff at all. It's pretty obvious that God loves Mustangs too.
