Ok guys, looks like I'm getting the 06 GT. It should be ready by Monday or Tuesday at the latest. They are replacing the whole front bumper/fascia and repairing the rear. I'll try to get some pics up as soon as I get the car. I am looking into getting a set of black wheels and new tires almost immediately, so let me know what you guys like. 18s are the biggest I'll go, have to be black without a polished/chrome lip (I hate those!!).

Ask if the plugs have been changed in the car. These cars use the 2 piece spark plugs that like to break off in the heads and can be expensive to fix if they do. These cars do respond well to the simple bolt on mods. I would start off with a cold air intake and tune. You would be surprised by how much more fun these cars can be with a tune and some drive by wire tweaks. We carry a ton of wheels and could set you up with just about any wheel you want for a great price. If you pick the car up, feel free to swing in sometime and we can help you lay the car out exactly like you want it or atleast help steer you in the right direction.

 

I personally wouldnt be concerned about the mileage if the price on the car was right.

yes...change the plugs!

 

brisk one piece ones FTW!

100% black, or would you want to do a machined lip?

I'd kill to pu those wheels on it but backspacing is wrong!!

 

they look better...thats why so many s197 people put new edge wheels on their cars

 

but 17s wouldnt look too good on an s197, and do they even make 18s in black cobras?
