I bought mine in Feb, I got it for 1500 under what he was asking in the summer time. All this guy sold was mustangs and talons though so he was desperate to sell

A clean and worth while stang is hard to find... dont settle for the first POS that rolls up. take you time, search aound. Im sure if you ask nicely enough... someone like myself would be willing to scope out a stang for you if you find one in MY neck of the woods.

then ofcourse, its just a plane ticket out, and gasoline back

I was on ebay one night looking at ebay randomly at 5.0s and decided i wanted one and then the next day i just happened to see one and bought it. then i guess someone wanted it worse then me so i cut it loose, that was 5 months ago and have the itch again.
