Found my Tungsten No stripe!
1/23/17 Edit - This thread has been titled "Searching for my '05-'06 GT - who might be selling?" Now I am going to use the same thread for my "New Owner - Here's what I got!" posts.
Here is my best pic so far, followed by the original 12/20/16 post. Then I'll be adding some new pics and info onto the page 5 area. Thanks for looking and sharing my experience!
(12/20/16) With funding arranged, it is time to begin the serious fun of searching in earnest.
I am looking for an all-original paint, no-stories car. Picturing about half Garage-Queen, half well-cared for Driver. Mileage range 5k - 25k. Light mods OK like pulley/tune, maybe exhaust or bumper delete (if all original parts included) but not much more than that.
I just want the price to represent a good value for the individual car's given pluses and minuses. This should reflect the reality that the market has softened in the buyer's favor somewhat during the past 6 - 12 months.
Now here is where I am going to make this a lot harder on myself - I have gradually gone from fondness to lust for the no-center-stripe cars. I think I'll allow myself a month or two of aiming for one, but will eventually relinquish that criteria if it proves too elusive.
Color preferences: Blue, Silver, Gray - about a tie for first. Red, White - tie for second. Black third. Yellow, Heritage not in the running.
I would enjoy hearing from anyone here about your own car, even if you are unsure what the future holds, or for any other leads/tips.
