2011 Ford Mustang Gt Premium W/ 5.0 V8 & 6-speed Manual Transmission No Reserve on 2040-cars

Year:2011 Mileage:32864
Location:

Mount Clemens, Michigan, United States

Mount Clemens, Michigan, United States

I purchased this car new in December 2010 from Ourisman Ford in Alexandria, Virginia. I lived in Pennsylvania at the time, so it was originally titled in Pennsylvania. When I moved to Michigan last year, I got a clean Michigan title. It has been a good car for me, but I want to get something a little more practical.

Here are the obvious features of the car:

  • 412 horsepower 5.0 L V8 engine
  • 6-speed manual transmission
  • Factory 3.31 gear.
  • Black leather seats (not heated)
  • SYNC voice control for radio and phone
  • 18-inch painted aluminum wheels
  • Shaker 500 radio with USB and Bluetooth
  • SIRIUS satellite radio
  • Power locks with remote entry (two keys/fobs)
  • Power mirrors and windows
  • Power driver’s seat and manual passenger’s seat

And, some information about this particular car:

  • The car has 32,864.3 miles on it (July 13th).
  • I am the original and only owner.
  • I am a non-smoker, and none of my passengers ever smoked in the car.
  • I do not have any pets, so no animals were ever in the car.
  • I was 44 when I bought this car, and I am 47 now.
  • I didn’t drive it hard very often. (I can’t say never.)
  • I haven’t received any speeding tickets with it.
  • The battery is the factory original. It might need service soon.
  • The brakes are factory original. They might need service soon.
  • There is a full-size spare tire and jack in the trunk. I never used them.
  • It was never in any accidents. And, it was never towed.
  • I haven’t monkeyed with the car at all. I never put a tune on it or even a CAI system.
  • I purchased a new set of tires from Belle Tire back in October 2013 when the car had 26,350 miles on it. So, the tires are nine months old with 6,500 miles on them. They are the same tires that the factory installed: Pirelli P Zero Nero. I had them rotated/balanced a few weeks ago.
  • I just had the oil changed at the local Ford dealership on July 11th. I can show you the receipt.

No used car is perfect. Here are the negatives:

  • I drove the car through the winters, but it spent the evenings in a heated garage 50% of the time.
  • There is a door ding on the passenger door. That happened in early 2011… right after I bought the car. I don’t know how it happened… a runaway grocery cart or a careless person opening their car door perhaps. It is a pretty deep ding. The Ford dealer estimates $400 to repair it. It never developed any rust, so I did not have the work done.
  • The radio control buttons on the steering wheel are worn. They still function fine, but the paint has chipped off the surface of the buttons a little.
  • The chrome pony on the steering wheel has a scratch. I don’t know how that happened… maybe from keys.
  • The front fascia has two holes from the license plate frame that originally came on the vehicle. (Virginia is a two-plate state.) I removed the frame, but the holes are permanent. On a black car, they aren’t as noticeable, but they are there. About 1/8 inch diameter each. www.bumperplugs.com sells some over-priced plugs for just this reason.
  • The driver’s floor mat is really worn; you will want to replace it. The passenger floor mat is in good shape, but the factory mats are extremely cheap.
  • There are no rear floor mats since it did not come with any from the factory. I can count on one hand the number of times somebody sat in the rear seat of the car, so the carpeting is fine back there.
  • The only problem the car has ever had was a stuck HVAC vent door. It started about six months ago, and I had it repaired at a local Ford dealership last month.
  • I never waxed the car, so the paint could use some TLC.

The terms of the sale are:

  • A $100 deposit will be required through PayPal within three days of the end of the auction.
  • I will meet you at a local bank to confirm the funds are present for a cashier’s check just prior to transferring the title at the Secretary of State’s office.
  • I want to do whatever is necessary to make the transaction safe for myself as well as the buyer. I am in no rush to sell the car. I think it is a good car, but I cannot take any chances with the money/vehicle transfer.

I will give the buyer the original window sticker, manual, quick reference guide, the SYNC manual and a full tank of premium Mobil gas.

Ford Mustang hit by Moore' Oklahoma's EF5 tornado lives to do another burnout

Fri, 07 Jun 2013

Oklahoma recently saw the destructive power of an EF5 tornado, but in the aftermath of the devastation, we've also been witness to the incredible resilience of the human spirit. Moore, OK resident Jack Haden survived the storm but found that his 2003 Ford Mustang wasn't quite as lucky. As you can see in the image above, the tornado's 200+ mph winds did quite a number on the car, but while most people would have likely called their insurance company and scrapped the car, Haden had other plans.
After finding the car and seeing that its V6 still fired up, Haden spent a couple hours getting the car, um... roadworthy(?)... by removing the doors and front clip, cutting off the roof and putting on some new wheels and tires. He noticed that driving it around brought some comic relief to an area that needed a reason to laugh and smile. Check out the KSBI TV news report video below showing before and after pictures of the tough 'Stang, as well as a video showing the newly lightweight coupe doing a smoky burnout.

Ford Transit gets outfitted for prison duty

Wed, 24 Sep 2014

Between the Taurus-based Police Interceptor, the Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility and the F-150 and Expedition special service vehicles, Ford has no lack of offerings for law enforcement. And now it has one more in the form of the new Transit PTV.
Based on the fullsize Transit van, the Prisoner Transport Vehicle can move as many as 12 prisoners in three separate compartments between detention facilities. Created in collaboration with Pennsylvania-based Havis Prisoner Transport Solutions and with input from Ford's Police Advisory Board, the Transit PTV takes advantage of the Transit's considerable configuration options that include three roof heights, two wheelbases, three lengths and four body-styles - not to mention engine options that include the flex-fuel 3.7-liter V6, 3.5-liter EcoBoost and 3.2-liter Power Stroke diesel.
"Transit PTV is the latest example of Ford's deep commitment to helping provide law enforcement agencies with capable vehicles. This concept proves Transit is upfit-ready and designed to Built Ford Tough standards," said Jonathan Honeycutt, Ford police marketing manager. "Many Police Advisory Board members have had the chance to drive this vehicle and they are excited about it. This new vehicle is tough, smart and efficient - ideal for the needs of law enforcement agencies."

Pickup prices rising at 2x industry average

Tue, 11 Jun 2013

We've said it before, but bears repeating: Pickup trucks are the financial engines of America's automakers. Good thing, then, that the segment is in rude health - in fact, Automotive News is suggesting that pickup truck sales are arguably healthier than they were pre-recession, even though the segment's volume is still significantly down from where it was before the bottom fell out of the US economy. That's because per-unit profits on full-size trucks are skyrocketing, outpacing the industry's average price increases by more than double since 2005. According to data from Edmunds, the average transaction price of a full-size pickup is now $39,915 - a heady increase over the $31,059 average price in 2005 - a gain of over 8 percent after inflation is factored in.
Just how important are trucks to automakers' bottom lines? Automotive News quotes a Morgan Stanley analyst as saying the Ford F-Series is responsible for 90 percent of the company's 2012 profits, and General Motors isn't far behind, with the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra twins chipping in about two-thirds of the automaker's earnings.
Automotive News points out that Detroit's automakers now have the money to invest in modernizing their full-size truck offerings, in part because they don't have the same overhead and legacy costs that pushed General Motors and Chrysler into bankruptcy. Certainly, the pickup segment has seen a lot of innovations as of late, including turbocharged V6s, coil-spring rear suspensions and active aero. Those improvements in important areas like fuel economy and ride comfort have given existing pickup buyers new reasons to upgrade. In addition, automakers are piling on the tech and luxury goodies, creating more and more high-content, high-profit models like the Ford F-150 King Ranch, Ram 1500 Laramie Longhorn and Chevrolet Silverado High Country (shown).
