Default Corvette Wanted/2012 Mustang 5.0 Trade

Hey everyone,

First post here but I've always been a huge Corvette fan. I have a Mustang but I've always been more of a nice car kind of guy rather than just Ford/Camaro or Muscle/Import.

I have a 2012 Black on Black Mustang GT 6-Speed. Only 6k miles on it and absolutely no problems. I have a later model 2012 so the tranny issues have been fixed. The car is basically stock aside from a Roush axle-back, GT500 rims/Nitto NT555 tires, upgraded speakers, tinted windows, and a Saleen grille.

Every time I see a corvette I just want to drive one so I'm considering trading the Mustang for one. I have the free membership so I can't attach any pictures but I'll copy/paste the link to the album and see if that works.

Thanks!

Oh I see thanks. I guess if I had to make a listing price I'd say $28k. Here's the links to the pictures:

Looking for a 6speed c6 coupe. I don't really are for yellow, monterey red, or sunset orange for some reason but I wouldn't completely shut off the possibility of those colors. I'm located on Long Island

Thats what I thought at first but I've had a good amount of interest so far but nothings worked out yet. I'm just hoping to find someone like me thats not a Ford vs Chevy guy or American vs Import kind of guy and just appreciates a nice car. Your corvette looks great though black on blacks the way to go haha

I have both cars and the coyote 5.0 is good enough to transcend brand loyalty...not to mention that the mustang is the only pony car that isn't bloated and heavy.

I would probably keep that Mustang- It is so much more versatile for the daily drive.

Ford is currently giving $2000 cash back on GT mustangs- I had an offer to get a base trim like yours for $25k new, but ended up finding a GT premium for not much more.

Wow thats really cheap. They seem to sell really quickly here in new york and dealers still haven't really been dropping their prices. I know what you mean about the mustang being a good DD, but if I got a c6 I'd get another cheaper car to drive to work and in bad weather

Got an offer for $27k...Considering selling but I wanted to see if the c6 I wanted was out there so I'll post some specifics I'm looking for:

Between $26k-$28k
2005-Newer
Less than 40k miles
Must be manual
HUD and removable top are a plus
No convertibles
Looking for silver, black, lemans blue, or victory red
