If you could stand the bling look
This might be a good daily driver for someone...lots of trouble free miles left...200,000 miles 4.6's are common.

2008 date code tires, yikes! Hope the new owner doesn’t drive on those!
Nice looking car, if it were me I’d go one year newer for the 5.0 or go backwards to the pre-2010 generation with the 4.6. I actually really like the pre-2010 models, I think they have better steering, a more comfortable cabin, and I like the styling. I had a 2008 GT500 and loved it, really great car and I would have another. I preferred it to the multiple 2010+ GT500 and Roush Stage 3 cars that I had.

That mustang isn't blingy, IMO. It's got a tastefully done retro thing going. The wheels aren't chrome. It's white with blue stripes which is a nice homage to the old GTs. It's not like it's crazy bright colors. It's not sporting a huge tail or crazy, boy racer aero stuff. It's just one tiny step up from Bullitt as far as bling goes.

But, as I said...a decent driver for many miles left to come at a fraction of the price of a new one.

I must be in the minority. I like the look of the 2010 - 2012 nose better than the previous. I really like the 13 and 14 rear better than the previous models.
I would hold out for a coyote and the 6 speed. |

Sold for $18K...rest my case as a bargain daily driver with a bi of fun factor. What would you rather have at that price level?
