Hmmm. They dropped the advertised price by $1k, as well as dropping the prices on the others.

Used 2015 Ford Mustang For Sale | Medina NY 1FATP8EM0F5397147

Winter is coming
It's a vert
New model year is coming out
Car sales suck right now

I'm staying at $17.5
Let's see how the Labor Day weekend treats them.

They've gotten quite a bit better since 1966.

This was a new one last fall. I did like the GT, but not the 6 cylinder.

My 335i Sport was rated at 300, but bimmerfest forums had numerous posts saying they are under rated.

Buy a four year old Infiniti; everything you liked about your BMW, only better.
I tried to like the Infiniti, but it suffers from the same issues as Lexus, bland styling. I liked the 2 door G37 but the 4 doors looks very camryaltima.

I went to a show over the weekend where they had a brand new gt-350 that I got to sit in and start, but since it was being displayed at a show I didn't get to drive it. I thought it was a very nice car. It even had factory cut-outs.

Once you switch them over to a carburetor, they're trouble free.

Took a look at the F-Pace. It's nice for a small SUV. While in the stealership, I sat in an F-Type vert. I'd take the F-Type over the C7 any day of the week. Except for the fact I don't fit in either of them.
