cctol.com (thast collectorcartraderonline) lol...

other than that, youve mentioned the good ones, maybe check the for sale sections of other mustang forums around the web..

as for a high mileage for under 10K,,, that should not be a problem at all if you just look around man..

2 years ago next month i bought my 99 with 48K stock miles for 9500... and it was on the market for awhile somehow, maybe i got really lucky, but i vote for looking around before buying one with 100K+

well as I have learned in my wisdom
if you buy a car remember you arent buying the big number yet you are paying the smaller number. If what you want is newer sometimes you gotta lower your standards. If I were you and I'm gonna finance a car WTF would you finance a car with 100k miles plus? and If I was paying cash why not drop 10g's on a new car in exchange for a smaller note? If you are financing a 100k car you are opening a world of debt. you will have to maintain the car like so: rotors water pump radiator battery alternator etc. It dont fly in my opinion

I don't know about all that,just because it has 100k miles doesnt't mean you shouldn't look at it as a worthwhile investment. I bought my car with 109k miles and it has been nothing short of excellent. Heck,my first car,a 1997 Mustang, had 146,000 miles on it and I NEVER had to replace a thing on it. It's all about how a car is driven and taken care of. Anything can make it past 150k miles without problems as long as its cared for properly. The only downside to a 100k mile car is the resale value,but I sold my 97 stang for $1200 more than I payed for it. Ya just gotta know what to look for.

Can someone tell me of other mustang forums so I can check their classifieds? Obviously this is the best forum.

Thanks, so what should I look at in a Mustang for under $10,000? Can I get one with 50,000 miles or less? I want to spend the least I can because then I can use the rest of the $10k for mods like gears, short throw shifter and radar detector.
