99-04 GT but you will have to pay more for less miles. you probably figured that that was the response that you were gonna get. btw..good luck!

For 10,000 the best you are going to be able to do is get a 99-04 GT.

For low mileage you may have to look around a bit but you can get one for that.

OR you could get a 96-98 Cobra... That would be a fun route if you like that body style.

You could pick up a decent low mileage 99-04 for that. I found mine with 10,500 miles on it and paid $10,900. You just have to shop around. I haven't found another deal that cheap yet, but you can definitely get one with about 50k or so on it.

99-04 for 10K is preatty reasonable. I bought my 00' GT 70K on the clock for 9K took a while to find a black one with black interior for a good price. Just take your time and shop shop shop. 96-98 cobras would be nice too.

If all I had was10g's and I HAD to have a Mustang, I'd look for an early4v.

No... That is a V8. It is a GT. I don't know where you get the V6 from.
