Im looking at a 94 mustang gt 5.0 5spd it has 119000 miles on it. in "good" condition, nothing magerly wrong with it. paint and body in good shape, only one chip in paint. cloth interior. cold air intake..He is asking 5500 for it. is that a good price to pay or lil high or hell of a deal? let me kno asap ur opinions guys im new into mustangs and am meeting with him tomorrow or the next day thanks

Its an almost 13 year old car...I think he should come fof the price a bit...

you need to take it on a test drive. dont be afraid to get on it. keep an eye on the temp gauge. listen for any knocking or pinging. when you get back, look under the hood for any leaks around the water pump area, listen for any vacuum leaks, and pay attention on how it idles, make sure the main engine ground is tight. if everything above seems kosher, offer him 5000.00, if not, keep shopping. and the cola air intake, without any other mods provide between 5-8 h.p.

Also dont be afraid to take it to a mechanic on the test drive and have them give it a one over...Its worth it in the long run...

trebel14 · July 25th, 2006, 02:22 AM

I have drove it a couple times already actually....runs smooth and sounds good. i havent got on it really tho. I am having one of my buddies go with me wednesday morning and drive it and see what he thinks. hes been around mustangs a long time and drove many gt's and now has a 95 cobra in almost perfect condition. i am thinking of offering him 5,000 but he doesnt seem like he will come off the 5500 but i will give it a try. i think 55 is a lil high too

KBB.com retails it at 5,020

notsoslo5.0 · July 25th, 2006, 03:29 AM

i definately love those cobras though hope you get it man

ChrisJ · July 25th, 2006, 11:46 AM

I would tell him how much it KBB's for...

I am pretty sure he is talking about buying the GT not the Cobra...

notsoslo5.0 · July 25th, 2006, 02:16 PM

hah yeah i know that i dont even know why i said cobra but i do like those body styles as well as the cobras

trebel14 · July 26th, 2006, 03:37 AM

Ok...So i havent drove alot of manual cars, in fact only 2 and the clutch on this stang is pretty stiff according to my dad. Just wondering if thats a mustang thing? or if it could be due to maybe an aftermarkey clutch if that would make it stiff? or if thats a sign of it going out? thanks again guys

$4500 is fair if the car is in good shape. We just sold a mint 11 second 95 with custom paint and every modification you can think of for $6500.

i got my 96 GT for 6000, he should go down a bit

trebel14 · July 27th, 2006, 02:08 AM
