I dont mean to be a dick so please dont be offended. You can sell your car and get a new GT which in reality would be a good DD with some bolt ons here and there, they are a hell of a lot quiter and smoother going down the road then the SN95 platform, both the original (my body style) and the New Edge. But If you ever decide to get real serious with power, its going to be more cost effective to extract that power from your current car, rather than making a car payment and trying to buy mods. Sorry for the ramble, my 2 cents is what will you enjoy more down the road, a well built, modded, powerful cobra, or a low mileage, new, GT.
brharris777, its cool! I know your not trying to be a dick. The reason I did the A/C delete was because this past summer my A/C froze up and it was a cheap fix. It was towards the end of summer and I knew I did not need it for the winter plus I was getting mobilized.

They only options I would do would be the 3.73 gears and the Brembo package. I would be dumb not to. As for the BOSS, the contact I have for the military purchases said it was starting at $39k. Then I would have a car payment if I did that. I am not looking at having a car payment. Sorry it took me a while to get back to you guys. Im in Afghan and can't always get to the computer, but I thank you for all your responses and input.

Thats a hard one dude, I didn't know the over seas deal would have a GT for 26k.. I might have done that over this Mach 1 I just got... I go over seas next month. But for me man, Your car is really sick and it would be hard for me to get rid of her... This is why I still have my 95 GT that I did a h/c/i swap on and all the doo dads. It comes down to what will make you happier, but I have a soft spot for the SN95 body styles.. Just me

Im not going to trade it in, that is not part of the option because you are not buying from a dealer. The car is for sale and I do have some parts laying around that I could sell. I would have posted them in the classifieds but I do not have enough post to do so.

If you are interested in what I have for sale you can look at my ad on craigslist or backpage.

http://phoenix.craigslist.org/wvl/cto/2162054659.html

http://phx.backpage.com/post/12474796/ba87b612

As far as parts:

-UPR Underdrive pulley kit
-BBK Twin 62mm throttle body
-Ford Racing shorty headers w/ new gaskets and locking bolts
-03/04 Carbon fiber cobra hood
-03/04 Chin spoiler
-2 New Sumitomo 315/35/17 rear tires
-DiabloSport delta chip

I know what you mean about the SN95 body style, it is really good looking. I dont care to much for the 05-09 body style. This new one is pretty sic tho. Oh and you can get other vehicles other than Ford. It is Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Lincoln, Mercury, and Chevy I think. Its all the American made cars. Also I cannot forget Harley-Davidson.

That would not be a bad idea. I guess if I wanted my new edge back I could get a Termi for the money I would get back and be able to mod it nicely. However, I think that my expectations will be met with the new 5.0

It has not been done yet, so that would be cool. I wouldnt know how much would have to go into that just for it to fit properly and everything else.
