What’s the true DD mpg? Just curious.You’re hard pressed to find one below 41/42 right now on autotrader nation wide. There’s only 70 or so for sale total as well. That plus the nature of the cars will keep them stable if not increasing as supply thins further over the next 10-15 years.
to your other point, there are plenty of lenders that are well versed in ‘classic’ car loans and will lend more for much older vehicles. the 13/14’s are special enough and hagerty has already called its future status So it shouldn’t be an issue not solved by a more niche lender.
I personally have no dog in the fight since Im about to cross 100,000 miles put on mine and have daily’d it for years. Won’t be mine that goes to Barret Jackson.

There's a misfire code between your eyes and brain.New GT500s don't have a manual, or convertible option and look like a 350z with a body kit .... prices arn't going down :lol:
Also reliable. they’re very affordable to fix and run! The trinity is the only “exotic” part and rebuilds aren’t astronomical.
when I was commuting in heavy SFL traffic daily it was about 13-14.
now I live up in N. GA so half my drive Into Atlanta is country roads with the eventual highway which gives me more around 14-17.
it’s pretty good in all honesty
I get about 16.3-17 city. However that’s with 6th gear lugging at 45-50 on most roads. In shit traffic I’d say 14 is about usual. Got 23.7 highway on my road trip.That was on gas or e85?
oh I’m all stock. just gas. I’m still under warranty for another monthThat was on gas or e85?
Lol. More research on your end is required grasshopper.
Similar to my ‘16 Hellcat Charger (A8 with 2.62 gear) my commute avg was 17-18 mixed driving. The ‘23 Mach 1 isn’t much better but I’ve been breaking her in hard.I get about 16.3-17 city.

Sounds about right. My hellcat gets about the same truthfully. It’s only 12 miles one way for me now. Love the Mach buddy!Similar to my ‘16 Hellcat Charger (A8 with 2.62 gear) my commute avg was 17-18 mixed driving. The ‘23 Mach 1 isn’t much better but I’ve been breaking her in hard.
My commute just got significantly longer but mainly highway and the biggest complaint is the small stock tank/range.

“Hold the wheel I’m gonna snap a quick picture” I’m guessingSomething is wrong here. A dudes left hand is holding the wheel.
I’ll gove you a second to explain what’s happening before I assume you’re getting yourself out for that same hand.
(i assume your gf or sister is driving)
You’re giving him way too much credit.“Hold the wheel I’m gonna snap a quick picture” I’m guessing
Actually never caught that before. Also no, that was my bestfriends hand. He attended our Route 66 trip. My ladyfriend was driving the black cobra during the trip.Something is wrong here. A dudes left hand is holding the wheel.

I came from a money pit of a bmw. I price out the various warranty repairs I’ve had and it’s still not near the German tax I was paying before.
im Sure going faster is $$$$ but just staying stock has been fine. I had a hose let go which I did myself and the rear end had some issues which are thankfully done with. other than that im still miles ahead than I woulda been.
Sound advice. I’ll be stock apart from suspension work for the foreseeable future anyway. I chased power in the euro car and ended up with an FBO meth injected E85 running tuned car that killed the turbo and tranny. realized it was better to get into the power I wanted stock and here we are.Actually, modding the Shelby isn't bad. You can make 750whp pretty damn cheap. Also -- 90% of that car is cheap Mustang parts so minor-moderate repairs aren't expensive.
However -- the longblock is unique to the 13/14 GT500 and is $10-15k in parts alone to replace. Having a shop replace is another $4k in labor. Can turn into a $20k repair rather quickly.
Just don't rev it past 6700 rpm and keep the WHP at or around 750 and shell live a long time.
