Default need help

i am looking at a very nice 1985 Mustang GT with the 5.0 V-8. This car is in good condition inside and out. It is silver with an automatic transmission, power windows/locks, cassette, rear spoiler, alloy wheels, and good tires. How much do you think it is worth.

like primetime5.0 said it depends on what there running in your area...but with low miles on it like that there probably going to try and ask alot for it...if i was you i would check out kelly blue book and see what the price it at...and the that will help you get a better idea and you can talk him down alot better if you know what it really values at....good luck with the car..

BTW 85stangman lives in Beresford South Dakota, mustangs are far from cheap around here belive it or not. I have seen 94-95 V6 mustangs with AOD's and +100,000 miles for well over 3,500. It all depends on what kind of shape the car is in. Hows the paint/interior/engine has it been beaten to death by a punk kid or has it been a grandpa's cruiser? Try to jew him down a bit and go from there.
