06 GT loaded with 15 grand on it. 2 months after buying it new I injured my back and rarely drove it since. Stil get stares from guys who see the mileage. Downside is the car "mine has the $$shaker" has one hell of a parasite battery drain. I replace a battery at least every 2 years. Only issue is the dreaded door panel material coming unglued and peeling off. Mine fell off even garaged after 12 years.

[@smoke1215]

From a guy who has owned a 3V mustang since I purchased it new in 2005 let me explain. There was zero competition for the mustang. I was a die hard Chevy guy and when I wanted to buy a new car all Chevrolet had in 2005 was an LS1 (not LS2) an LS1 GTO, which weighted more, was a bit slower, and cost $10,000 more money. (and was less visually appealing IMO) I can remember talking with other car guys about how it looked like a $40,000 GrandAm. The main competition for the 3 valve mustang was the older but still very awesome WS6 TransAm, which it ran pretty much door to door with if both were left stock, or maybe intake/tune type cars. The 3v mustang was the right car for it's day. It was on par with the TransAm, looked better than the GTO and destroyed the heavy Dodge Chargers which made around 350hp (crank) and weight like 4k+ lbs. It is easy for people to be like "Oh you should have just bought a coyote 6 years before it existed". Ford kept that quiet, I remember my best friend buying a 2010 4.6 mustang having no clue what was around the corner. The coyote only became a thing because Ford finally had competition from the newly re-released Camaro and faster Chargers / Challengers becoming a thing. You had to be there to really understand how great these cars were. They didn't out sell literally everything in that price range for no reason. Even after buying other cars, I still love my 3 valve and have no plans to ever get rid of it.

[@gavinmann7670]

Well put man! I was born in '98, so I remember the S197s coming out for the first time and absolutely loving how they looked. When I turned 16, those GT's were still a bit out of my price range so I settled on a base model SN95 instead. When I was 22, I saw a silver S197 come across the marketplace that had real low miles, but a little worse for the wear, and for dirt cheap like 3700 bucks. I knew that this was my chance, and even though I originally bought it to flip, I'm realizing as I've been fixing it up that I'd rather keep it! I hope you enjoy yours for many years to come!!

[@bendungan8970]

[@smoke1215]

​@@bendungan8970 What price range are you look at? There are a lot of good options, but that is where we need to start.

[@bendungan8970]

@@smoke1215 somewhere in the 7-12k range and all ive heard is that the 05-09 are a great model year

[@achannel305]

@@bendungan8970 That really depends on what you want out of the car. I recently picked up a 2010 Mustang GT Premium that was well looked after and low miles for a little bit more than your price range and I love the car. It is perfect for what I wanted which was a fun reliable daily driver car that is faster than what I was driving (a 4cyl car like yours). The 2010s have the newer body style with the older engines (4.6 3v). If you want the same things as me a 05-09 GT would do you great, but I recommend ones newer than 06 as a few improvements were made then. Maybe you would like better fuel economy and don’t mind a v6, a 2011-2014 3.7 v6 car could be a good option as well. Of course it won’t have that v8 sound but it makes similar power to the 3v though not as much torque and gets better gas milage. I personally went with a 3v GT as I wanted that v8 sound and soul. Both cars have good potential and respond well to boost and are reliable so either would be a good option.

I have a Vista blue 06 mustang GT and I love it. The 3 valve mustangs were the best mustangs ever produced.

[@newfie-dean5803]

Bill McGregor i have the same car in that Vista Blue and I bought it brand new. It has 95,000 miles but is in pristine shape as it is winter stored, garage kept year round in a garage without windows, and the last several years It’s only used on nice Saturdays and never driven in the rain. It does not have a ding or dent or scratch on it and the interior is like new. The paint looks perfect. Slightly modded with a JLT CAI, tune, steeda underdrive pulleys, a Bullitt axleback, 2010 GT500 wheels with 275 rear and 255 front, upgraded brakes as well as some other appearance mods. I love it and I don’t care how much more power the newer ones have. This thing looks great, turns heads, gets loads of “nice car” comments from people and is a blast to drive. It still feels like a new car every time I drive it. Ford had it right with this body style. They should never have changed it the way they did. Dodge has kept the challenger looking quite similar to the 2008 challenger and that’s what ford should have done. They could have kept the same shape but made subtle appearance changes much like what dodge did. When they squished the rear in 2010 the car lost its retro cool look. If they had not changed the exterior look a lot but had instead changed the interior to high quality, and the Powertrain to what it is now but with a 3V sound they would have one sweet car right now, one a lot nicer than the new ones today. Hopefully someday they make a retro 05-09 so that look comes back again!

These are the only issues just in case some are wondering what just time does. It kills batteries and had a horrible parasite drain. 2-3 days and it is DEAD. Do that 3x and the battery is dead so a trickle charger is a must. It took 10 yrs but even garaged, the interior door panel material peeled off. Reglued. Thats it!! Most are blown away by the mileage but even so. DRIVE EM IF YOU GOT EM. Yes, you may sell or trade it faster but the amount you will get for a mint, low mileage car vs one with normal wear/tear and milage ain't that dam much so enjoy the car.

Was that normal power back then for the 3V setups? I bought my ex-wife back in 2006, a new 2006 3v 5 speed and it put down 284/304 stock on my bud's Dynojet and it ran in so so weather with a DA of 3000' a 13.6@103 mph. I thought that was pretty good back then. I figured on a good Fall day it would have been 13.2@107.

[@lsjionredlinesupercharged2049]

3v are a favorite of mine but what's the major differences between the 2and 3v 4.6

[@cubby1814]

is there any good springs for v8 that are more on the cheaper side

[@sammy-samsonmustanggt3852]

Mine has 156k, it became my daily last year. Now I'm wanting to do a glow up. So far I have front Baer brakes, stang 2 clutch, and a slip differential. Everything else is wants. Soft top Paint job Ceramic coating Skol wheels Royal blue and black leather interior Rear and front blacked out lights New Hood of some kind (still undecided) New body kit. Alot of work but by next year it'll be done.

Just picked up my first Mustang. An 06 V6 with a ton of miles but I don't drive much anymore. Man I just love the car. Love the mods but they might not resonate to the V6. Still love the videos

[@0219rafagrill]

I love that a built

[@kjr9059]

Will the GT short throw shifters fit in a v6? Haven't found any answers

[@awesome12480]

You guys should do a full build on a 2v sn95. Built motor forced induction. I’m talking all the works.

[@jorgecervantes185]

Levi O’Connell 2V SN95’s are life

You can't beat the sound of a 4.6L once you open things up! Thats for sure! -Zach

[@somersetashton-lewis3415]

Such a beauty! Where did you source this S197? She almost looks new!

[@TeamTrapEater510]

There’s a bbk throttle body/CAI kit that they sell somewhere else can’t remember, they claim to add 27hp and 30ft/lbs of torque. And it’s a $700...

[@MrMurph111]

I just bought a used Magnuson MP112 Supercharger complete with lower intake, gaskets, fuel rail with 39lb/hr Ford Racing injectors and stock throttle body for.......$650!!! I didn't get the air/water heat exchanger and pump or misc do-dads.....but, including those I'll have about $1,500 in this upgrade for a gain of 140 RWHP...... ;)

[@PartyofNone]

What state do I have to go to so I can pay for you guys to work on my car?
