Default First Mustang

I have question for you guys and im hoping someone can help me out. I will be purchasing my first mustang soon, however I can not decide which one to choose from between the two.

The first one is a 2007 Mustang GT dark grey color with 65k miles on it it is completely stock and is from a car sales lot it is in good condition they are asking $10,500

The second one is a 2007 Mustang GT Black color with 143k miles on it it is also completely stock and it is from a private seller. It too is in good condition however they are asking $7,500 I have about $9,000 right now but I can get the extra money I am just wondering if it is worth it to spend the extra $3,000 to get something that much newer. Thank you for your time and help I am only 18 so the extra $3,000 is a lot of money however if when I go to sell it in the future I would like to not lose a lot of money which one will hold its value the best.

Thanks, Harrison

Welcome. I would go for the low mileage option -- way less than half the miles of the black car.

Welcome to the forum, and I'd also grab the lower mileage car, if you can swing it financially. Like you said, it's a great selling point if you change your mind down the road. Good luck

Welcome!

I would avoid the higher mileage car. If it was me, I would save a bit more so I could increase my budget. You'll get a lot more car for your money but everyone's preferences and situation is different. If you are happy with those two options then go for it!

welcome

I'd go with the one that looks like it was taken care of the best.
