Keeping the 6er!


Hey everyone i know i said i might trade the 6er for a GT but ive decided not too......I took a look around about 10 dealerships all day today and even though there were some nice GT's, I cant let my baby go. First off the cost of insurance and everything its just not worth it. I mean i was sitting there and the guys were explaining everything to me about the cars and im sitting there like wow, my car's the same thing the only difference is the horsepower but i could take all the money im about to spend on a GT and put it into my 6er and blow the doors off a GT. So bottom line I love my 6er and i obviously wouldent trade it for anything.......If any of you guys feel the same give me a HELL YEA

some of them came with the same rims! lol its a optional thing off the dealership.. just like MOST gts have leather seats not all.. and MOST sixers have cloth seats but some have leather

we have windage tray a much stronger block.. and a few other things that i cant remember right now

edi: and my stock rims were 5 spokes

Because to equal the power of the 99+ GT you'll need either nitrous turbo charged or supercharged. Which will cost about 6k installed but you'll also need a new back end and forged internals that alone cost about 2k their is much more you'll probably need. Forgot to tell you nitrous is much cheaper and would cost under 1k installed. Not very good choice though plus you'll need forged internals and probably a new back end still so it still cost alot.

The money you save from the gas difference isn't that much... you can't make a GT look stupid cheaply. Takes alot of money to get as fast as a GT, I once thought the same thing as you, but after finding prices and HP adds... it really would cost alot installation alone will kill your wallet.

I'm going to keep my v6 for about 3-4 years. I'm planing on some mods, but I'm not going to put over 2k in the car.... it's just not worth it.

but don't get me wrong from what I read you can get your stang going pretty fast, but you won't make a GT look stupid with out a big wallet.

It doesn't take super/turbo/nitrous to get faster than a 99/04 GT
