Default Whats with the values on Fox's???

I went to kbb.com (kelly blue book) and I was wondering how much a 93' Fox Mustang GT Hatchback was and I put in I would say the premium package options with power window/locks, power seat, spoiler, alloy wheels etc. And I chose 5spd, with only 10k miles!!!! And also checked it was in "Excellent" condition. And the most they would say it was worth was $4,120!!!! Whats with that....that seems real low?!?! And yes I chose private owner asking price not trade in or anything else.

P.S.
I checked ABS for one of the options but did most 5.0 fox's come with ABS?? (Anti-lock braking system)

For right now, don't expect much more. Wait a couple of years and you'll see how much they will raise in value. (if it is in good condition.)

Well whats funny about it is that kbb.com is saying it is that low but people are selling them a few more thousand more then and people are buying.

I guess mustang owners know the true value of their vehicle.

No fox came with ABS, let alone 4 wheel disc brakes, unless i was blind when i was little!

The 93 cobra didnt even have ABS, but it did have 4 wheel disc brakes.

Book value on many older cars is way lower than the actual selling value.

kbb doesn't take into account the condition of the car that much.......it just sees that the car is 12 years old and says hmmmm mit's old.

dealers use galves. which is something that tells them what they can get away with paying for it and what they cans ell it for.

nada guides is the better of the two public blue books.
