Default How much...

I am going to be getting a GT between now and Summer. I want a 2003/2004 true blue gt, with black leather interior, with around 50-70k miles. Preferred completely stock, and in good condition. How much am I looking at for one?

I have seen some with around 120k miles for 8k. I think thats overpriced. But I have seen a few with 50k miles for around 12k. What do you guys think?

30 - 50k miles anywhere from 11 to 13k , 60 - 80k miles 10 - 9k , 90 to 100k miles and above arrange average from 8 - to as low as 3k. Be strict and have patience and I guarantee you will find a great deal. New edges are a dime and dozen , if you look hard enough you will find the perfect one , Also talk them down and use the new 5.0 and the before s197 as starting points for a price. I seen a 70k mile s197 for 14k with no mods.

Out here, with those miles, you can get one for around 10-11k . I don't see them in True Blue to often though.

I would drive a good ways for one like this. Because once I get this car. It will be driven until it falls apart. Since both my buddys have TT GTs, this will most likely end up being a twin turbo'd car. The interior isnt really a req. just preferred. Mainly, i just want a true blue Gt with around 70k miles for 10k, because thats about what I can afford right now.

Can you keep an eye out around Charlotte and let me know if you see any true blues for sale?

True Blue is gonna be hard to find, I think. Good luck though. And have fun with the dealerships that try to waste your time with cars you're not interested in..... Example, when I was shopping, I told dealers "8 cylinders, 5 gears, no black or yellow". Seems like it should be easy and straightforward, right? Can't tell you how may call-backs I got for yellow V6 auto's.

Patience is definently the key to getting a good deal on a GT. I picked up my True Blue for 3K. Sure I had to throw some new tires on it and fix the poorly installed 4.10's but I saved alot in the long run. Keep searching and you'll eventually come across the right Stang, good luck!
