Yep, basically the closer to stock a car is, the better the for seen value.

Its got 2 notched rotors, a red stripe, and I'm pretty sure the rest is stock or close to.

thats weird i was going through a camaro phase and had 2 trade in offers on my 98 mustang v6 with 180k milage, both offered me ~2500$ which is about what the bluebook value for trade in is i think. my private selling value is 3800$ according to bluebook. But I do take extremely good care of my cars and its in excellent condition with everything functional.

Lilroush, I am totally confused how the hell they could only offer you 900$ for a ROUSH??

You should of taken the $2500 and ran.

They offered him $900 because to them it's still an "old car" and Mustangs are a very soft market at the time. You have to consider that the dealership was gonna ask around $5000 for the car, and would of likely taken $3000 for the car. While a $2000 gross profit sounds like a lot remember the car would of sat for a while and some dealerships have to pay fees/penalties if a car sits on a lot too long. They would also have to use the gross to pay for bills/expenses/etc. Remember the dealerships are in it to make money, not "break even" or loose money.

Yeah I'm totally keeping mine unless insurance/parking costs start getting me uncomfortable. I like more more than $2500.
