i dont kno if the question was directed to me, but yes a mach 1 lol.

I also agree with the black comment. The stripes do help the car stand out and show it isnt just a gt. But im not too picky with colors.

There is also a red with 8,500 for 19.5. This one is a bit farther away tho. blck is 45 ish and red is 2hrs ish.

it depends where youre located. i couldnt find one for less than 17k, and no one would budge on the price. hence why i dont have one.
+1 for location being a huge factor. I don't really have the means to travel insane distances for a car, so I got mine for $16.5 with 43k miles, which was a deal considering if one popped up around here they were floating around $18-20k still in the same condition.

And also I agree with ÅЯđồľŀễŗ here on the black thing. The contrasting of colors is what I love about these cars. I have seen one black Mach though that I believe was part of Furinox's portfolio that looked amazing with all the accents changed to red. Very sinister.

If you are going to go with it, the red for 19.5 with 26k less miles might be the way to go. Yeah it's 2 hours away and a grand more but that's a small price to pay for a car that you're going to love. You might be able to offer him 19 or 18.5 andtake it.I got mine for $13,000 with 65k miles and I love mine.

id watch the mileage when youre looking for a car at that price. i mean not just because of the price vs. mileage, but because when you buy a car at that price, unless youre paying it all up front, youre going to most likely be paying for that car for 5-6 years. the average person puts 10k miles on a car (assuming its a daily driver, or close to it) in 1 year. you dont want to be still paying for a car in 4 years that then would have over 100k miles on it.

i just bought my car, but i financed it for 3 years, with 70k miles on it. which means, i should have it paid off before it hits 100k on the odometer.

basically, you dont want to be making payments on a car thats going to have a lot of miles on it. if you find one for $18k with 20k miles, when youre done paying for it, it will probably have less than 60k-70k miles on it, which is good. dont get roped into paying $15k for a car with 50-60k miles on it, because youre gonna be paying for it for a while, unless youre gonna pay over $500/mo for maybe 3 years.

go with the red one if you cant find one for cheaper. with that few of miles it seems like a fair price i drove 4hrs to pick up mine. i was lucky aunt lived in the same town and looked it over before i went down there to pick it up but trust me it was very much worth the drive. as long as its a 5spd and not an auto i say go for the red one trust me you will love the attention it pulls lol.

I like my black mach 1. I like people thinking it's a GT or even a six cylinder, but then I get on it and make jaws drop. Then when I am ahead of them they see the mach 1 badge on the trunk and realize it's not just a regular mustang.
