Looking at buying a 99 GT

I've decided to purchase a 99 GT but what's the deal with the proponderance being automatics? The real irony is that automatics list for a higher price. I have nothing against automatic cars but I really do enjoy gearbanging. Anyways, my search continues.....

Hey, don't you have a huge Ford dealer there in Lauderdale? Is it called Sawgrass Ford? I'm going to be down on business next week and plan on wasting some time looking around. I will definitely be paying Steeda a visit, and I mean paying. It's time for some new goodies.

Are you planning on bringing a biga$$ empty suitcase?? I suppose you could just fit under the seat in front of you. LOL.... If you mention my name they might inflate the price so shhhhhhhh. Too much fun and time on my hands. Good luck bargain shopping!!

Only problem with Steeda is they are expensive, in fact the only real deal they have is on Nitto's. I litterally work less than 5 minutes from them and only go through them if I have to.

Thanks guys. I would have them ship anything big. I do agree that they are pricey. I do need a tri-ax shifter and maybe some minor things like a new shifter knob to dress things up a little. I'm trying to save for a Bassani x-pipe but things like flat tires and new appliances for the condo keep getting in the way.
