Haha I was about to give your car a plug in this thread and you beat me to it. I would suggest mine but its over his price range.

To the OP I would really consider looking at ColinGTs, you will regret cheaping out and paying for it in maintenance costs down the road....and besides his looks pretty sweet.

Good advice, I'm taking it to a good shop tommorow. Thanks

And where in pg do you live? I volunteer at a fire dept in silver spring, we run into PG all the time- laurel, Beltsville and college park.

no offense but you aren't getting it, buying a mustang with that many miles is going to mean maintenance costs that will end up having you spend what you would have on a lower mileage car...and its worth less later when you try to sell it.

Aight man no prob, I thought he rebuilt the engine so it was ok.

I'm looking at a couple of GTs with 88k miles for around 7 grand. Will update soon...

Unless it is in awesome shape I would try for between 6-6500 for that year and mileage. Just remember that when it comes to the car market you are in control and its okay to walk away, if they need to sell it that bad they will make it work for you. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

On a side note, be sure you can see the car very well, black can be deceiving and appear better than it really is if you do not look closely. (black shoe polish and poor lighting can make a black car look great when you are excited about it)
