Should I go for it, what do you guys think? If I EVER got another Mustang, it would be this color cause it's the color of my Mustang, hit me back with input!

HMUSN · December 6th, 2007, 01:49 PM

not bad.

it's about $800 to high in price though

drumming_guitarist06 · December 6th, 2007, 01:50 PM

I think what I would do is offer him 9k, but pay him in full, because I could afford that. If I told him I would write a check on the spot for $9000...I think he would do it.

Stang6899 · December 6th, 2007, 01:51 PM

Thats a pretty decent deal and the mileage isnt 2 bad. Up to you

Avaric3 · December 6th, 2007, 01:51 PM

i say go for it, but first check to see if the car had its problems fixed. the 99 cobra was a very troubled year for the ford svt. there was a bunch of problems with it. the result being it didnt produce as much hp as written on paper. but if its had the necessary fixes, itll work right up to par with the perfect running 01 cobras

drumming_guitarist06 · December 6th, 2007, 01:54 PM

That is probably the only thing I am leery about, plus 99 was a bad year for Mustangs anyway, since the switch. They changed lots of stuff making it hard to find parts for. I'll call and see what I can get. I need to sell my car first though. That way, I could pay for the new Cobra with that, and pay Mom back the remainder.

ComiTheHomie · December 6th, 2007, 01:57 PM

i say go for it bro. and whose gonna turn down a $9000 check?? haha

i have a 99 v6 and theres no prob finding parts whatsoever. even cobra and gt owners have no trouble finding stuff bwecause the 99-04 years are pretty interchangeable

drumming_guitarist06 · December 6th, 2007, 01:59 PM

Really, ah okay. Well that's good to know, I asked him what has been done as far as the year is concerned...he probably will get back with me tomorrow or something...not giving him my phone number yet

MWWarlord · December 6th, 2007, 02:31 PM

Sounds like a kick ass car. If you can afford it...go for it. I agree you should see if you can get the price down. However, be aware that no matter what you buy it for, you will owe him the full cost up front. If you're making payments on the car it is to a bank (or other financial institution) but the seller still gets all the money up front. Therefore, I don't think the fact that you're offering a check on the spot will do anything for you. But you can certainly try to haggle the price down a bit. Good luck man.

Onemanzu · December 6th, 2007, 02:55 PM

if you can offer cash on the spot some people might be more willing to take it and run ... greedy people man greedy people...

DG looks like a clean car if it were me personally i think i would take it just cause i would love to have a V8... looks clean man

xSxTxAxNxGx · December 6th, 2007, 03:45 PM
