So recently i bought a 2002 v6 mustang for 3000 in good conditions but after a weeks i noticed the car had both heads blown, so im selling it for 1 thousand dollars less then i bought it for. so im getting ready to buy a new mustang this one is 2000 v8 mustang with 98,000 miles and the price is 4500.

I already went to go see the mustang and i drove it everything was perfect but what i dont wanna do is make the same mistake again. The mustang paint is in perfect condition, it has 4 staggered rims, cobra clutch, cobra shifter, cobra front body with a mach 1 lip. Has a 300 dollar cold air intake, 4 HiD lights, Has very loud flowmaster exhaust and racing suspension. Heres a pic of it




To me this sounds like a good deal but tommorow im going to go check it out again and i need to know if theres anything i can to make sure this one dosent have blown heads. When i went to go see it i checked the radiator water and it didnt seem normal to me but i didnt really take a good glance.

I would have someone run the carfax a car that good looking for that money could have been in a wreck. Hence the reason for the front bumber change.
I would also find a local shop that you can give a couple bucks to and they can give it once over.

Yea maybe, but 90% of the people who own a mustang end up changing the front bumper. The guy told me it was a clean title but i will get the vin number tommorow and run a fax i dont mind paying a few bucks.

If your mechanical expertise cost you $1,000 the last time around, PAY A MECHANIC TO LOOK AT THIS ONE.

Wow, seems like an awfully nice car for that price.

I would find some little local shop, you can give the guy 20 bucks to throw it up on the lift and look at it for you. The mechanic can tell you from a quick glance if there is any major problems

It appears they swapped the instrument cluster also so there may be a mileage discrepancy. I cant really tell if that is a '99 35th anniv or '03-04 mach 1 cluster.

Although I like to mod my cars, but I will take a stock car over a modded one any day when it comes to buying used cars. Just seeing a $300 dollar CAI on it raises a red flag for me.

why does a 300 dollar CAI raise a red flag?
