[QUOTE="SCALILOU, post: 16191061, member: 189869"] You have to be patient when buying a high performance used car. I've owned 3 Shelbys, and all 3 took time and patience to find. The one I own now took 3 years of searching for the right car. By 3 years of searching I mean finding one, and if it didn't meet my criteria, I walk away. My criteria includes: the car must be bone stock, low miles and cared for. If modded, it must have some documentation to show "Bubba" didn't install the parts himself while 15 beers deep. The car I own now is 11 years old. When I found it 2 years ago , it had 15, 000 miles, all dealer tags and plastic covers were still inside car which I had to remove, and engine was just like it came from factory. You have to remember, people will immediately start to mod these cars without any real knowledge of what they are doing. Most go by what they read on a forum, burn a piston, then dump the car onto someone else. That's why an 85,000 mile car would scare the hell out of me. I would run from that car, especially with no knowledge of what exactly was done to it. Just my 2¢, good luck!
