mustang help..

[fasterblaster09]

Just need some opinions, beings how I don't know much about mustangs. Im looking to get one, and a buddy of mine's dad has a 2003 for sale, is white with a peanut butter color convertible top. Car has 118k miles, and is an auto, v6, cherry bombs dual exhaust (on a v6?, whatever they like). Car is about 99% condition. Was painted not long ago (that cheap stuff they use at fact-o-bake). This car is really nice. He was selling for $5500, but said I could have it for $4500. Opinions? thanks, neil

the miles are kind of high. personally im not a fan of convertibles at all but thats just me. once again personally id look for a either v6 coupe or a v8 coupe and to me id have to have a stanard mustang auto is no fun but once again this is all my opinon because im looking for a mustang to but im short of cash

that is alot of miles...i got a 2000 gt last winter that had 36k miles on it...

$4500 seems high to me, but im a cheapskate

Kelly Blue Book lists it for over 6K retail in my area.(excellent condition of course)

KBB private party resale pricing:
Excellent: $4,285
Good $3,835
Fair $3,285

do you have emmisions testing in your area? if so, will it pass?
brakes and tires OK?
any engine lights on?

[fasterblaster09]

No emmission tests, I am cheap too lol. Im used to buying vehicles, just never american. I guess I will hope I find a good deal on a truck in the next day

what about this, 2000 chevy ext cab 1500, white with 20" rims, good tires, 175k miles, v8, runs good, a/c needs to be charged, when they changed the heater core they never filled it up. I talked him down to $3500. thoughts?

[yellowhonda400]

175k is alot. i wouldnt do it

[fasterblaster09]

in the trucks defense, the blue book value is around $4300. I won't be able to get anything too super for the price. If it has low miles, its a saturn, if its high miles, its a bmw. give or take lol
