But lets say I found a car like yours J.Shoot and the deal was just too good to pass up; I would buy it in a heartbeat!
You mean something like a 2012 GT in Kona Blue with white stripes, loaded except for Nav and heated seats, with a Kenne Bell on it, that makes 602 at teh wheels, for $26,000? Yeah, that would be hard to pass up.

If it had Nav I would buy it. Too bad.

Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.

I have a P1SC, mostly because the deal was too good to pass up. It isn't a daily driver, but I usually exercise her once a week to work. Hopefully after a dyno tune session, the car will be a little more driveable (I get surging under light throttle, WOT I have no problem). SC'ing a daily is definately do-able.

Well I found a 2012 with around 22,000 miles with a TVS and FBO's for 30k. Thought that was a pretty good deal until downtime threw out the KB for 26k lol

As far as I know edelbrock kits don't make the power, I personally think they are ugly as well. If they cost the same as the other S/C's then its definitely not worth it.

I agree, the edelbrock is last on my list lol
So, I found a 2012 with a 2.9, built motor, and T56 magnum for ~$36,500. What do ya'll think??
I really only wanted to spend around 30k though, but it seems like a pretty good deal.

I would haggle down to $32k maybe its a little high and just because they added $10k of mods the cost doesn't transfer when selling

Can't go wrong with a blown 5.0. My TVS car was one of the ones you were looking at.
