That sounds like a nice find for someone if there isn't something wrong with it. He's only had it for 3 months.

Jim
This SRT6 is located in my hometown, sent an email. I've NEVER seen this or any other SRT6 in the area in the past 5 years.

Fishy at best! The previous owner who kept a car like this under 7000 miles would likely be a forum member?

What's fishy about it? It's priced where it should be, maybe a little better. Five years ago this car was selling as a 1 year old new car for about $27 - $28k. I know because I almost bought one.

yes fishy,,, the only way i would sell a car after 4 months is if i bought it for less than 10000 and could make 8000 in less than 6 ,months ,,, now beats any CD i have seen in the last 68 years jim

Well, I'm not defending this guy. But there are many people who buy on impulse. I know of people who have done this multiple times. Not the most prudent people, but they are out there. That alone would not stop me, if all the other facts on the car check OK. Maybe I would give them a low bid.

This guy is legit, I met with Dave this morning and saw the car. He is a car guy, so this was the reason for the future purchase of the Boss Mustang.

Its a 7000 mile car with all season tires that have the corresponding miles and it has navigation. The only downside is, it has the original battery and it will need and IC pump soon.

If I were in the market, I would buy it. Its not perfect, but could be made so with minimal efforts.

Regards,

Dennis

Thanks for the review Dennis. if it was a ragtop, I'd be interested.

As for the price, I hope he gets it 'cause it means sell prive of our babies may be improving. And I have an extra one for sale, sorta.

Hey Dennis...told you I had not been on the forums for some time...LOL.

Just to ease anyones anxiety, yes I have had the car for only a little while and I love the car. With the help of the forum members I was able to gain confidence, ask the right questions and purchase this little gem. Meeting with Dennis this morning was also great because he was able to identify a problem (albeit minor for now) that I was wondering about.

Full disclosure: I have a chance to swoop up a Boss 302 mustang which is like a dream car for me. I would keep this car but I really can't justify this with a two car garage (me and the wife have a mazda CX9, Titan Truck, suzuki b-king and the Crossfire)...plus it clears up the WAF on the Mustang...hehe.

I really would keep it. I had checked it out and had it checked out when it landed (carfax, dealer, the whole 9). It really is a decent car if you guys know of anyone looking for one. I'm not going to dump it but I do think I'm pricing it fairly considering what I have into it...especially if you live in PA.

Please PM me if you have any question or call (I'll PM you my number).

BTW, I love this forum. It was the reason I bought the car in the first place. I just have not had the time to frequent the forum this summer.

Take care guys.

Dave.

Thanks for not trashing me either...LOL!
