You guys are loosing sight of what's being offered here.....over 700 HP for 40k......
In a situation like this, I think we should ask ourselves,"what would @tannerc91gt do?".
That's the kind of thinking that'll get you in troubleYou guys are loosing sight of what's being offered here.....over 700 HP for 40k......

But... That kinda thinking nets you like 15 fox bodies-5 SN cars-a few pontiacs and a wide body 'Vette.
A Triumph Daytona?! That's my dream bike! Got a picture?
Hell, I understand, that coyote is totally b*tchin'. Though you had at least a couple cool rides there Nick. Tough choice, but the new mustangs are pretty hot.I bought my 2011 in 2012, had coyote fever. The '86 was decent, but needed a lot of work. I had stock piled some parts, but got my money back out of them eventually. Here are pics of both sacrificial lambs.
Not sure if this link will take you to the vid I made when I put the Daytona up for sale, but here's a try.

This shows the paint matched mirrors of the Daytona, my Legacy GT in the driveway, and the '86's tail lights in the garage, lol.
And the '86. Looking back, I should have kept that car. It was paid for, and I had a new shortblock sitting in the garage for it, with Thumper ported GT40P's, Trickflow intakes, and an Ed Curtis cam. It was already 5 lug swapped with 4 wheel discs, and T Tops. Yeah, Im an idiot. But at the time, it would have had to be my winter driver to keep the '11 in the garage with the wife's car... Just couldnt do it, and it ended up going back to the guy who was two previous owners back and regretted ever selling it.

It's far from over lol. There's a change brewingBut... That kinda thinking nets you like 15 fox bodies-5 SN cars-a few pontiacs and a wide body 'Vette.
Oh, stop it Nick! Damn! A Buell! Me lika da Buell!Not going to lie buddy, even though I regret selling the '86, and also miss that Triumph, I am a lucky SOB, and happy camper with my current situation. I just scored an '09 Buell XB12R last fall, did some mods over the winter, and had it dyno tuned a month ago. It is a hooligan machine for sure. And the '11 is up on jack stands getting its suspension sorted as we speak. Life has treated me fairly.
The first weekend I had her, in stock form.
This was the day I parked them for the winter.
Ok, I am done whoring this thread. But to those who may consider the new 700 hp Mustang, I say do it! To the wives that married us, they had to have known what they were getting into at least a little bit!
Yeah brother, back in the early eighties I was stationed at Ft. Ord in California. I had a KZ1000R back then. The back side of the post had a looooong straight stretch of road that I'd whack the throttle open on. It's amazing what 140mph on a bike will do for a bad day!
It's amazing and frightening how good things look in pictures on the Internet.
