it's a good price but i would try to bump him down to about 7.5k. as for gas milage, as soon as you get it, you prob won't see very well cuz you will be pushing the pedal pretty far down but under normal driving i usually show anywhere from 17 - 22 (combined) depending on how much highway v city driving i do

Yes, if they roll. So buy my '99 Cobra coupe for $9500 and you will live if it rolls over. Plus it's much faster.

I think that price is way too high.

But, that's my opinion.

I paid 9500 for a '99 back in '04 (5 years old) with 48K
Youre paying almost that much for a 7 year old car with 30K more miles.

But, if that's all you can find in the market,,you gotta pay what you gotta pay

(basically just saying if you can wait, keep waiting,, if not, whatever)

8k for that many miles sounds about right , I shopped alot of mustangs nationwide too. Here in the metro detroit area were mustangs are like gremlins (people feed them after midnight and they multiply) roaming the streets so the average price for a mustang with 50k miles is around 11k. They are a dime out of a dozen and priced very cheap if you look hard enough. so basically what im saying is if it looks and drives great , no problems then go for it

Price doesn't look bad from what I saw when shopping... It's summer so vert prices are naturally going to be more than if you were buying in the winter.

I'd probably go for it as long as the carfax report was clear of accidents.
