Hey guys, I was just wondering if this is a good deal on a used mustang or not?

I live in Virginia near DC, the car is in Ohio, near kentucky. Here are the specs

Black 2000 GT
Gray leather
Auto
Premium Sound
19,000 miles
hardtop


for $12,500?

they say its in great condition, the only reason theyre selling it is because the family needs a truck. They've been trying to sell it for the past couple years but theres no market for msutangs in ohio.

any words of wisdom?

 

1. run a carfax,

2. it is a black car, check it over on a sunny day. Unless it has a perfect paintjob, you will see any bodywork done to it.

3. get it checked by a mechanic, etc.

I would never buy a car over the phone. Take a road trip to check it out.. make sure you have a friend with you to play devil's advocate so you don't get yourself a lemon.

 

that's a pretty good deal. if you can talk them down to 12 or lower, grab it if its what you want.

 

Does anyone have any tips/instructions on how to remove the IMO awfully placed spoiler on a 2000 GT? i like the clean butt look

also, i want a manual, but this ones an auto. can 3.73 gears still be put on an auto 4speed tranny?

 

I ran 4.10's on my 2000 automatic GT I had. It was still fine for a daily driver.

However, if you are really wanting a manual, go ahead and find one. That was the one thing I regreted about my GT. If it had been a manual, i would have never bought the cobra.

 

if you get rid of the spoiler, want to give it to me??

 

Lee gonna put a black 2000 spoiler on your car? remember its different than the one you have.

 

you can have it, just pay for shipping. anything in it for me to give it to you? nah, just kidding. if i go through with the spoiler delete, which i probably will, you can have it

 

Anybody have a Saleen spoiler they want to delete from their mustang and donate it to me

 

sweet

but yeah, I'll give you some money for it no prob

not sure if I would keep it black, probably wouldn't look right for what I want to do. But I like the look of the 99/00 spoiler when it's moved back, however in the stock position i think it looks kind of odd.
