Why would I want two Mustangs? Sell this one get next one, if S650 is a hit probably sell next one for that, but no point in having very similar cars on the drive as can only drive one at a time.
HOPEFULLY LESS THAN A YEAR WAIT: New 2018 (MY18) S550.2 Mustang V8 10-speed ordered

Yeah it makes sense. Sure I read in a post you were going to keep both. Maybe I misread. Will you be taking the bits of the current one to put onto the new one?
If I get close to 40k, I will let mine go with all mods though I've already sold all the Shelby GT350 power stuff to another Mustang owner.
MY18 gets mag ride option so am taking that, so don't need coilovers, will probably just get the Ford GT 350 lowering springs, will probably keep my cradle lockout and uprated rear top mounts though if I put my current one mostly back to stock as they can go to new one.
Wheels will keep if I don't sell as I like them better than the Ford offerings or just buy another set, but that is it only real mods I fancy doing to new one are GT 350R brakes, GT 350R rear seat delete, GT 350 rear wing, headers and a tune.

Look forward to it then.
Not worth it, by the time I've shipped the engine over, had it fitted and custom tuned I'd not have much change from 20k, admittedly rocking around 600HP NA would be pretty epic, but in the real world it would be hardly any quicker than the stock car with 550HP NA, so it would be 20k down the drain, I'd rather drop 20k on another car like an E60 M5 or just go and do a load more crazy holidays again next year.

V10 sounds better than a holiday that'll only last a few weeks.
no way, going on holiday is far better than owning any car !

Toss up between a Ferrari F40 or a holiday to Blackpool... think I'd take pleasure beach every time

yea you cant beat the fantastic memories of a holiday...but then again you cant beat the memory of driving down a country lane on a bright summer day in a 550hp Evo 5.... totally brilliant, i'll remember that all my life.

Or do both!
Just booked a driving holiday next year through Germany as can't really do NC500 a third time but will do again, plenty of Autobahns to go flying on in my new Mustang, NOW THATS A HOLIDAY, just do both!
Shall probably be back in US in January, Korea, Taiwan and Thailand in May/June, then driving in Germany trip, also gonna go to South of Italy for end of Summer next year too and whatever other opportunities crop up.

good beer in Germany too, great countryside.............Madeira and Sicily are great for cars too, as is Lake Garda........but lake Garda is brilliant for hiring powerboats most of all, i love the sound of a V8 powerboat, man it's noisy..you can hear it 5 miles away.
i'll probably return to Madeira at Xmas, their roads are fantastic and they have quite a few rally cars too, the U.K is a total disaster now for driving, i'd much rather live in Italy or Sicily/madeira.
i tried to find the price of your car today but failed............ can you let me know its price ?
Are you going to talk about buying one of these for months on end now?
Its avertised on PH and Ebay at 39k, if I don't get close to that within next month or two I shall simply put it back mostly to stock within reason and let it go for low 30's.
If you want to buy it, come round to my house with cash, don't talk in this thread and de-rail, not interested in timewasters or tyre kickers, only interested in punters with real cash and the means to buy now or soon.

NO NO NO sorry i meant the new 2018 mustang, i'm not interested in yours
Should be announced end of next week or early following week. Expecting V8 with no options to be 39-42k, 44-50k with options in short is my guess.
- 10-speed: £1500
- Magnetic ride: £1500
- Recaros: £1500
- Custom Packs: £950 - £1950 each (Shaker, NAV, Forged wheels, leather console etc)
- Spoiler - £495
- Painted roof: £500
My guess on the main options costing, remember digital dash, active exhaust is standard fit.
I recons you're 500 quid light on each of those.
A10 is $1595 option and Mag ride is a $1695 option and the US to UK prices are generally 1:1 or a little in our favour, but we shall see.
