best year GT

v606er · March 18th, 2009, 05:49 PM

Which year (between '05 and '09) produced the best GT? I'm talking all the kinks worked out, least manufacturing problems, etc... best all around year?

Also, If i were to get a GT from which ever year yall say is the best, what milage range should I go for? ie. less than 30k miles...less than 40k??

and please give reasons for which year is the best, and dont just say your year, unless it really is the best.

08 but 09 if u r a glass top roof fan

v606er · March 18th, 2009, 06:24 PM

i like the vista blue and torch red the best. grabber orange is awesome though, and i dont see many of those. i dont really think id go for black, but maybe. silver or gray are both sexy

animal, how does blue look when it is dirty? is it really noticable?

although i love the drop top, im leaning towards the hard top. not glass roof.

cmdr_anomic · March 18th, 2009, 06:37 PM

the 08 has better spark plugs than the older ones; and i believe something else changed for 09 but not sure what

it handles a decent amount of dirt before being badly noticeable.

06. 07 got heavier due to the GT500, but the chassis is a bit stiffer after 07 for that same reason.

v606er · March 18th, 2009, 06:46 PM

how about the fuel tank problem? is there a year that doesnt have the poor design fuel that that has lots of problems fueling up?

thats good to know about the spark plugs and the stiffer chassis

v606er · March 18th, 2009, 06:48 PM

im also reading about dashboard squeeking problems in the 06 gt. does that affect 07, 08, 09 as well?

07 grabber orange GT FTW!

I haven't heard alot of bad things about 07 although they seem to have a drivetrain vibration sometimes at around 70-72 mph...and pretty much just at those speeds. look that up.

idk, but my 05 has it

bigpappy33 · March 18th, 2009, 07:25 PM

no squeaking for mine, and yeah the fuel thingy, but i got that fixed while i was still under warranty. you should consider that 07's basic warranty's are about to go up, 08 and 09 will be fresh for a year or 2 or 3.

BuRnIn_YoUrS · March 18th, 2009, 07:37 PM

i know the 07 was the first year of the longer powertrain warranty. and i'm glad
