I Bought The Cheapest Mustang GT with 127,000 Miles (Here's what's wrong)

[@travism559]

Got my 2013 gt with a blown motor for 2k. Threw a motor in it and it’s been the most enjoyable car I’ve ever owned.

[@Ciocho]

What a steal and I'm sure a fun project! Enjoy your hard work man, that's awesome

[@wandreousblue9261]

That is such a beautiful Mustang. I wouldn’t even care about minor scratches and paint chips on the exterior, paint fading on the front bumper, oxidized headlights, curb rash, or the buttons on the steering wheel fading. I most definitely would be concerned about the damaged control arms as well as dents on the body. Those things would be taken care of asap but for $10,000 I would be more focused on enjoying the car rather then trying to fix everything right away. I mean it still looks great for it’s age and the stealthy all black paint job makes it even easier to look past most exterior flaws. The mileage is higher then I’d prefer but these cars can go well past the 200,000 mile mark if properly maintained. Regardless the car looks amazing. Congrats on that steal.

[@Ciocho]

Man I really appreciate this comment, thanks for all your compliments and your suggestions I've had the car for over 2 years now and a lot of the problems I have either fixed overlooked but my main focus has been enjoying the car and that's exactly what I've done I can't say I plan on getting rid of it anytime soon. I am still stoked at the deal I got on it as the value of the car has only gone up the past 2 years! Again, thanks for the support friend.

[@luiscoreas3267]

I have the exact same car but with the glass roof. I got it 3 years ago with 98k miles for 12k. It’s been my daily driver. I’m pushing 142k and the car runs as strong as the first day I drove it!

[@Smasher-Devourer]

Its 11 years old. Its going to have some wear. Might need to wrench on it a little. I'm sure its due for spark plugs, (Which takes maybe a 1/2 hour to do) but if you got a good deal on it, then drive it, enjoy it, and most importantly, take care of it.

[@spongebobsquarepants2980]

I got a 2011 gt for 15k, 80k miles. Super clean condition and 0 issues.

Where’d you look for that cheap bro ??

[@WaterdownBOY]

Same car as mine, nice find. I picked it up with about 30,000 mi. Now it has 100,000 mi on it and hasn't let me down. You bought yours at a great price, and once you throw a little money at it, and perhaps get a repaint, CAI, tune, exhaust etc etc. You'll be laughing. Mine puts a huge smile on my face, thought about getting a newer one, but I'll think I will just keep it.

[@Ciocho]

Thanks for the comment! I love my car and aside from a few small fixes, she's held up great! Glad to hear from another happy owner

[@argobatts5022]

$10900 is a steal bro. I’m pickin up a 12 wit 89000 miles for 19k tmr. It’s crazy how the market has gone up.

I have a 2011 gt/cs. I have 37k on it. The bushings on mine had to be replaced. Seemed to be a thing w Ford from 2011-2015. It’s what my mechanic was telling me. A lot of what you have is cosmetic. Fairly easy fix

[@jaycamacho8179]

I have a 2013 with 51K miles and I have to replace my rear sway bar bushings. Clanking like a bitch. However, this is after I upgraded them to the Ford Racing Performance sway bars but I think the grease I used was no good and cause the bushings to go bad prematurely.

The sound is GREAT!, good catch and have fun...

I have a 2012 mustang gt premium, same options with 226,000 + miles , and my car does not look near as bad is this one , it's how the owners had taken care of this car . But you still got a good deal . These are easy fixes .

[@6ixlxrd]

I have a ruby red 2014 premium with 101k miles on it, and it was taken great care of. Only thing wrong with it is the antenna and the oxidized third taillight, plus it’s so hard to keep clean 😩.

[@corbinthepieguy0249]

[@Wooley689]

Those miles are not bad, only 12600 a year, probably mostly highway miles. Did you ever have a four wheel alignment done? I had clunking on my 2011 with 72,000 on it. Turned out the axle was shifted of 1" to the left. All three frame shops said somebody hit a curb or something hard. Repaired now and no clunk and shifts easier as well.

[@Ciocho]

Thanks man! I did get an alignment done with no luck, the ball joints were the issue!

As the owner of a 2012 GT... what got me was the peeling of the steering wheel buttons. That's just super annoying and mine also has that. The crazy thing is you bought it at the perfect time... because if it was today's market it would've probably been a stupid price of like 15k or something.

Check bushings on sway bars and bump* stoppers located both in the rear.

Thanks for the advice

[@169abr]

Coyotes are fantastic engines and very stout as long as they’re maintained. 11-12’s had a bit of a problem with Cylinder 7 and 8 but as long as you keep up with your stuff they’re fine. I live in Florida as well and it tears our paint up but I’d rather a messed up paint job than a rod sent into Orbit. Next step, Exhaust! Don’t delete the resonators unless you get a name brand kit ie Corsa/Borla.

Go to an upholstery shop bro for the plastic on the seat. It’s going to end up ripping it.

It was annoying too since it would poke me everytime I reached in there

Camaro’s are nice, but they aren’t a hair on the rump of a Mustang. There are reasons why the Camaro has been repeatedly discontinued over the years, not the least of which is the simple fact that people just don’t buy them in the numbers that they buy the Mustang. Yeah, the Camaro is fast and handles well, but the Mustang is quite simply a great all-around car that also happens to be fast. Sales numbers don’t lie. The Mustang is the real deal, and when it comes right down to it... the Mustang is to American Muscle what Coca-Cola is to sodas.
