Default advice please

My friend wants to sell a 2003 V6 mustang with 45,000 miles. This does not have the original 3.8 is has a racing 4.0 in it. (Its actually faster than a stock gt 1999-2004) It has a CAI, Exhaust, and a short throw on it already. he's asking $9000. The condotion is almost new on the outside, and very good on the inside. What do y'all think?

Not even close unless it's supercharged. Post some pics of the engine, I'll be able to tell you if it has a 3.8L engine or not.
