Yikes, it looks like this forum is all but dead these days? :\
Just joined. Also a member of Mustang6G. Looking at a 2012 GT Premium for my boy this week. Aside from all the typical things one needs to look at when gambling on a used vehicle, is there anything in particular to look out for on this model or S197's in general? The only concerns I am aware of is some paint chipping at the front edge of the hood and a little on the rear trunk lid, that looks like starting to see some surface rust on the under side at the rolled edge, and a worn steering wheel. It might also have some outstanding airbag recalls needing to be done, not positive, just maybe there is good reason someone would avoid having this recall work performed?
Thanks for any tips/advice on the S197, I am clueless. Wifey is on her second S550, but I was never cool enough to have an S197.
