had the chance to drive a dealer modded 08' mustang gt today. a woman that works for my wife came to work today with an early christmas present from her husband. without asking she tossed me the keys and said take her around the block..opps big mistake, lmao! with the twist of the key and 150 miles on the clock i was off..sideways out of the parking lot! lmao!!!!

at this point i knew it had at least some body mods, lowered and a catback. as well as a husrt short shifter and a ford racing monster tach w/shift light. but after a few times rowing up through the gears and sitting at a few stop lights i had a feeling there was more done than what you could see. so nosey me started looking for a window sticker or something with some info of the mods. open the glove box and theres a comp cams cam card and a list of what was done to it.

cai, cams, tune, underdrive pulleys, cat back, hurst shifter, ford tach and some steeda suspension, cervinis body stuff... all in all 12g's of mods. car windowed for 29,500 in stock form, so mods put it at 42,000. after driving it i thought ouch! thats a ton for a mid to low 13 sec gt. but when i get back she shows me the bill of sale.. 31,999. so good for her on taking advantage of a shitty new car market. and to boot all the mods are covered under her warranty.

two things on the car...

1....runs, looks, and sounds very nice..

2....boy am i going beat up on alot of these when my car is done early spring next year!!!

:jest:

Sounds like a decent deal for a brand new cam'd 08 GT. No way I'd pay $42k for a mustang though.

Does the factory warranty cover the modifications?

If all those mods are covered under warranty, that lady did good for what she paid. If you can afford it, now's the time to stick it to dealerships getting what you want as a buyer.

yep 3yr/36k warranty on all mods done by them. the car really really needs a 4.10 gear. it takes a mintue to get it wound up, then it's like yo the vtech just kicked in!
