Default This or That?

Right now i have a 93 F150 with a 5.0 in it and im getting about 11-12 city/highway mix and 15mpg on the highway doing 65 the whole time. = The kicker is its only got 62,xxx miles on it. Needless to say i need something that gets better mileage and i have an opportunity to get a 95 Mustang GT 5.0 5 speed with no modifications done to it. The plus side to this deal is the car has never seen winter, its been garage kept during that time and has only 76,xxx miles. Being a new member seeking advice, i was wondering what kind of mileage i can expect to get out of this thing if i were to buy it. BTW, its listed as $6500 FIRM. Would this be a good deal, or i would i be wasting my time/money?

I get about 18mpg


6500 seems a bit more then I would pay, but it has low milage for a 12 year old car.

I checked all the sites i could find that listed used car value, kbb was around 5100 in excellent condition, nada said 6675, and edmunds said private party was $4193, $5,723 dealer retail

Being 6500 Firm does seem a little on the pricey side, any others?
