Wait 5 months, you'll get more out of 'er. All im gonna say. Its winter. This is the time of year when people look for atlantic blue mustangs. Because a mustang in the winter is impractical. Catch my drift?

Remember, it's not winter everywhere, but you should wait until late January - till late March to officially put the car up for sale strictly because of the fact that the holidays is a bad time to try to privately sell a car because most people that are in the hunt for cars are looking at new ones, then after the holidays most people restrain from spending for a month, but in mid February spending takes off again. I mean, go ahead and list it, because you never know, but you'll get more if you wait. I say you should get at least 7K for the car. I say start at $8500 and go down from there.

I bet you could get 7k+ for it pretty easy. Your car looks to be in good condition with somewhat low mileage + some mods

I got a 2000 mustang that was re'con.. with a metallic paint job and 17" bulitt style wheels.. for 4000. It was a steal. The car was "totaled" because the airbags were released, he made contact with a tree, fram wasnt even bent. Oh, also had brand new fuzion zri tires on it.

What was the mileage? Salvaged title kills the price.

You're telling me hes gonna list the car in Asia? Fact is, you get more money out of a sports-esque/performance car in Spring and Summer. Try and debate it, im just trying to help him get top dollar for his car.
