Clear title....?

Prolly a decent deal if there's not any rust and it runs decent. Otherwise you got room to bargain.

Good luck,
Ivan

Sounds like a decent deal, but i would offer less with that many miles on it.

$1,500 for that car is a little cheap. I'd say offer $2,000. It looks like a nice car and if it has been taken care of that 170k miles doesn't mean as much as you think it would. I know a guy that has a 5.0 Stang with around 190k miles and it still runs great so it all depends on how the car has been treated. Best thing is to always drive it and give it a good looking over. I always try to observe how the person acts about the car when they're showing it to you also, a lot of times you can tell if they are trying to hide something or are lying to you. Good luck.

Offer 1500, bring the cash and just hold it in your hand. People do crazy things if they see the money. Still, id expect to pay 1750-2000. Then, take that extra money, buy some LX tails and put them in ASAP.

i got 170k on mine almost runs perfect and i get about 28mpg and has a very small oil leak 2000-2500 for a fox is definitely decent money ive seen bodies go for 2000$ go drive it if the ac works turn it on let it sit see if it gets hot makes sure it doesnt,oil water etc. vibrate, make weird noises also watch out for a car that has dumps lots of time people do that to cover up weird noises!
