# This eBay-Find, SEMA Built Ford Mustang is Missing Four Cylinders, But Does That Matter?

It's amazing what you can find on eBay. From the [obscure to the ridiculous](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/33393/someone-please-buy-this-concorde-jet-engine-on-ebay-and-stuff-it-someplace-stupid>), there is a good chance eBay has a listing for it. In this case, a former SEMA-built 2019 Ford Mustang EcoBoost that was on display at the Ford booth at SEMA 2018 is up for grabs, and it's more interesting than you may think.

According to [Motorious](<https://www.motorious.com/articles/news/ebay-find-2019-ford-mustang/>), the car was built by Neil Tjin, and every aspect of this Mustang has been modified. The car has everything one could want in a "modded"[ Ford Mustang](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/34703/why-ford-must-build-a-mustang-raptor>). It has an RTR wide-body kit dressed in a custom BASF Majestic purple paint job that could make a Lamborghini turn green with envy. It sits low thanks to a fully adjustable Air Lift suspension featuring ViAir compressors.

The 20-inch wheels are center lock Forgeline finished in two-tone bronze that works beautifully in contrast to the purple exterior paint. Inside, you get Recaro leather seats and Kicker audio system complete with subwoofers and amplifiers in a custom trunk enclosure.

However, when you look at this car, one assumes it will have a 5.0-liter Coyote rumble to complement the RTR wide-body kit. Never mind the fact that Tjin programmed a custom tune on the EcoBoost along with Borg Warner turbo, race-spec intercooler, and manifold, with a Ford Performance exhaust and Baer brakes. But, paying $55,000 for a four-cylinder Mustang is a thought that doesn’t sit well with most.

The next owner of this custom Mustang is going to simultaneously not care what people think *and* want to be seen. You know he or she is going to get “could’ve gotten a new GT for less money” remarks on a regular basis. But I could be wrong. EcoBoost Mustangs have their own following, and the stigma of driving a [four-banger pony car](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/35688/heres-the-2022-subaru-brz-out-testing-against-an-ecoboost-mustang>) isn’t as common anymore.

At publication time, the eBay listing on this SEMA Mustang has 11 days before the auction is closed with a [buy now price](<https://www.ebay.com/itm/2019-Ford-Mustang/124276980585?hash=item1cef7c3b69:g:lIMAAOSwb2ZfE0m->) of $54,999. Granted, this is a unique Mustang that will turn heads and collect likes on social media, but will the 2.3-liter turbo EcoBoost engine prevent it from reaching its reverse price?
