I post in this section cause I'm sure you guys know the most about a Fox Body and it's worth...

Yesterday, while helping my dad pour a basketball court for some lady, we got on the conversation of mustangs cause I had mine there. She told me that she had a '90 mustang and wanted to sell it but has no idea what to ask for it.

It is a CLEAN '90 GT, white paint, 140K miles, all original, new looking interior.

On KBB.com, this car in EXCELLENT condition is listed for about $2000 but I'm sure to an enthusiast it is worth more. What is the most yall would pay for this car? Keys being that it is clean inside and out, and all original which is hard to find on a fox body these days.

2k for a stock mustang nothing done sounds fair. but it all depends what the seller is willing to let it go. clean ones around here are being posted for about 5k, but who knows if they are selling or not. i wouldnt pay more than 2k for a stock mustang.

id offer her $3000 if the car needs anything. i got my gt convertible for $3000 with 133,xxx miles and only one small spot of rot on the trunk lid. also had a busted motor mount but otherwise great. if the car you looking at is rust free and doesnt need anything, id offer her $3500.

Alittle high on the engine 142K IMO is it stick or auto ? What color is the interior? How is the undereath of the car,any rust holes? Hard to say with out seeing pics.My car has about that on the clock but the engine was replcaed with a new one fom jasper...And only has 40k on it, Runs very strong super clean and straight car.I paid $ 4400 for my car the one in the signature...Hope this gives an idea .............

i paid 5500 5 years ago for mine, pretty clean, stock, with 96xxx

in this economy 3-4 would be pretty fair, but ive seen them go anywere from 1500-7500, all depends on owner and the real condition, without pics/seeing it it is really hard to judge

i agree about the pics but unfortunately, i didnt even have my phone on me to snap pics.

The interior is gray, not so much as a tear. The underbody from what i could see is clean. She has had it stored in a garage for the last 5 years so no weather damage from sitting. Rear right tire is flat, paint is prestine, front fogs broke out, battery is dead, possible A/C problem (she says it just needs freon) but it needs to be switched over anyways.

I'm thinking $2500 tops
