Default Do you like this car for this $$ ?

I absolutely love this car and the price seems very reasonable here. Is it out of line?

for ebing a 67 coupe it's am lot of money. But this car seems well taken care off. dedicated his own website to the car etc etc etc. (ttp://www.mustanggta.com), which is a good sign.
The pictures are too small to say something but it looks in great poriginal condition (unmolested). The S-code (390) is a big plus as well with all the other options.

so rather somethingto drive and keep and not to modiufy the crap out of it :-]

as said the 25grand for a coupe is a lot, but the fact it's a GTA S-code with all options i'd say it's worth that money if it looks good from close-up as well and does not have any rust

I agree. If it is a nice as advertised it is probably worth about that much. That 390 and GTA with all the bells and whistles is cool. It looks to even have tilt steering wheel. That is definitely not a Mustang to modify.

It does have the tilt-away steering and I would break anyone's nose that would be stupid enough to change anything. So to you bro's, that price holds water even in a US market keeping in mind it's an Alberta car and should be worth far less in our current economy? I think that car is a demon. I love the paint scheme and stance. That is one nice 'ole pony no matter how you judge it for $25K...

I think its worth that money if its as advertised. Just because its a coupe doesnt mean 25k is a lot of money. Its a GTA.

I agree. It's worth the 25k, but bet he'll take some off that.

The pictures are bury, it almost looks around the hood hinges to be over spray. Make sure this is not a "re-sell red" paint job. Also from experience with vinyl tops, make sure to run your hands all over that top especially around the rear windows for any bumps or lumps. If the roof is not treated properly when the top is installed, water loves to stay and rot away and eat the metal under the vinyl top. Make sure you check!

25k is quite reasonable for a for a gta 390 with all those options if its a solid car.

I find well priced Fastbacks here in Detroit all the time, craigslist is a miniscule tool compared to going to some of the car shows in Detroit and seeing whats got for sale signs on them.

Here's a few examples (not GTAs, but still nice, and cheaper...)
