[QUOTE="silverfox999, post: 16114090, member: 192979"] Hopefully this is in the right section..... GT500 10-12 model buying advice for novice required I'll be looking for a 10-12 GT500 in the next few months to bring over to the UK. There aren't that many GT500 cars/owners over here in the UK so I've come to you guys for help. In all probability I will be buy a car via US, I have a car guy who lives in FL, so I will use him to review cars and likely come over myself to close the deal if I can find th Wright car. Unfortunately I'm a classic mustang guy who restores them for a hobby, so my knowledge of cars might be good, but not on S197 GT500. I intend to keep the car for a few years, unlikely to modify it, but buying a modified car, as long as it's not too mental, is fine. I'd love a 13/14 model as I prefer it's looks, but $40K+ is above my budget. Here are my queries, any help/advice you guys can give me would be really appreciated; Off the 10-12 years, which is the best year and why ? What's the most important factors to look for when buying? Should I be worried about modifications and what, if anything, should I avoid if modified ? Typical price range for a 10-12 is ?$ Is a full history including regular services a must ? Best to buy from a trader or private seller ? Cheers Chris [/QUOTE]
