So finally after 9 years with my 2v I decided it was time to pick up something new.

The 2v had lasted me 9 years and a total of 180k miles. stock trans and stock rear just rebuild kit at about 90k and 1 blown motor at 165K. I drove her across the country and beat her up daily, shes been through a bunch of mustang weeks. Well it started to come down to almost everything finally going wrong and spending way to much to just keep her up to date. Dealer in my area had a 2013 5.0 with 37k miles with brembos and track apps offered me 2500 for mine and that was it.

my old 2002 bought her in 2006 with 45k miles

I love this car. I dont plan on much, some suspension work with BMR and maybe the Roush or FRPP handling pack. Bolt ons, ( previous owner installed muffler deletes , which I plan on removing. ) and a GT500 spoiler and rims. I dont plan on FI maybe some spray. Nothing much.

Nah I wish i could have, but didnt have another set and didnt want to miss the oppertunity. The fact that a dealer gave me 2500 for my 180k mile 02 was amazing ha

Nice upgrade.

I've had my 2v since '04 amd am about to part ways. 117K on it, but the dealer offered me 1500 when we just bought my wifes truck.

2500 isn't bad as long as the wheels weren't worth a ton.

the sve drifts were kinda torn from a rear caliper seizinng shu on a drive from NC to MD so brake dust melted to the rear passenger rim and it was kinda curbed. The tires were tore up so no big deal.

So far ive put about 200 miles on it haha and I love it. Def an amazing machine and worth the note I now have for piece of mind of having a well running car. The coyote is a beast. and its so smooth on the accel I couldnt be happier.

Im gonna call ford later with the VIN to get a window sticker to find out exactly what it has.
