Hey guys,

Recently I've been in search of a Black 2013-2014 V6 Premium and I found one for $22k. It only has 530 miles, but on the carfax it says an accident was reported. The car was also a rental vehicle.

What do you guys think of this car? Here is the carfax: http://www.carfax.com/VehicleHistory...OO_0#undefined

Thanks for the help.

I would go test drive it and check it over really well. Also with the way dealerships are pricing Mustangs right now, you may be able to buy a new fairly loaded V6 for that price and not have to worry about possible issues from an accident.

Thanks for the input. I certaintly will go see it and test drive it before I make a final decision. The car looks good, but thats in pictures so I will have to check it out well when I go. Here's the car for sale and some pictures: http://www.cars.com/go/search/detail...nal&listType=1

I would pass on this car. You never know how much abuse has been put on that car. No one renting a sports car is going to treat it good. Since it was already in an accident it was abused. Here is what people do with rental cars.

A rental with only 500 miles and has been in an accident, and now they're selling it? Car could be fine, but that raises more questions than it answers to me.

I saw a blue, (the new blue, sorry I forget what the color is actually called) 2014 in New York on the auction site with a little over 2K on it and asking 23 or so. They maybe would come down on it. It's a premium with the pony package. If you're not stuck on black it's worth a look. A6 with the saddle seats.

You have a point. I found two new 2014 Black Premiums around my area for $23.7k. Do you think I could get them to mark down the price some? Are there any rebates or anything going on now?

Yeah that's the same thing I asked myself. Carfax said there was no major damage done, but you can't be too sure. Grabber Blue? That was another color I was looking into, but gravitated to the Black more.

See if you can get into some sort of X-plan pricing. It's not available to all jobs, but where I worked (Kroger) at the time cut $2,000 of my V6. Added was a $500 Student discount bonus.

But as for current, up to date rebates, it's up to the dealership and it changes every month or so. Supposedly...

I have another car that was a rental and also in a minor accident. Have had zero issues with it and you'd never know it was hit. The differnce is I got a killer price on it that made it worth it. The price they're asking isn't worth taking the chance IMO.

You can also get X plan pricing if you join Mustang Club of America.

If your serious about this car. I would do more then go and check it out myself like you said. I would definitely have a mechanic look at it from top to bottom before putting that kind of money out.
