Very close to getting a Mustang
Hey everyone so I have made a deal and everything just waiting for my bank to get back with me on financing. It is a black 2006 Mustang gt premium. After haggling and having a little money down the price will be $10,900 that I will be financing. The car has 90k miles but is in great shape. It has a few rock chips, but what car doesn't that is that old. It will also need a full paint correction because it does have some swirls in the paint. But again for that year in black, what car wouldn't. The interior is in phenomenal shape, no wear and tear on the leather seats. The engine bay looks clean, I don't see any leaks or anything like that. It also pulls harder then my 2006 Monte Carlo SS does and it only has 63K miles. All in all it is in really really good shape for the year and mileage. One question I do have is, where is the transmission dip stick located? We looked all over the place and we didn't see anything. It shifted great so I think the trans is in good shape, I just like to always make sure the fluid looks the way it should.

I did all of that, way ahead of you lol. It hasn't been crashed and looks like it has been well maintained. Going by carfax, it doesn't say if spark plugs have ever been changed. I'll bring that up to him and see if he can lower the price so I can go out and get plugs and install them or just have him have everything done. I didn't see any signs of water leaks and the gauges did all work. Also I checked to make sure the Airbag light did what all it was supposed to do. It really looks like a solid car. It does need little things like paint touch up and the mirrors are fading a bit. But I had planned to swap them out anyway. but other then that every thing looks to be in really good shape.

Yea if I get the car I will post pics up as soon as I get it home and get it washed. We got an hour to drive it so we took it home and jacked it up and had a look. The exhaust which you would think would normally have a little rust on it now was almost perfect and it was the stock exhaust. It had a couple spots here and there but overall I was very impressed with how clean the underside looked. It was a southern car so that helps as well

Yeah these year Mustangs don't have dip sticks for the tranny, there's a fill plug on the drivers side I believe and a drain plug on the tranny. Not to familiar how the tranny is check for fuilds have to check the manual. I just had mine fuilds changed couple a years ago by the stealership.
