i own a repair shop,and sell a few good used cars on the side from time to time,and id offer them no more than 3500 for it,and it would have to be in good shape for that price,,kbb prices are just used as a guide to have a starting point for selling a car,,some cars will bring more or less,it all depends on their condition,and the mileage on them,but i wouldn't put over 3500 in it to it,because its already past the point to qualify for a bank loan,and soon it will be 12 years old,i have a friend who has 2 of them,one he just bought for 2500 and its in good shape but has around 125 k on it,so try to bargain a little with them on it,good luck i hope this help,s

There are a number of things that affect the value of a car. First the overall condition, the miles, and the options. Ford made a large number of these cars and they are very easy to find in good shape. All KBB, NADA or any guide gives you is a rough estimate for any vehicle based on the average prices. The key word here is "average". Some cars may sell higher and some lower based on there options, condition and market value. For instance a Mustang GT in Michigan in Dec should sell for less than the same car in Jul. Make sure to check the rear main seal as well as the oil pan for oil leaks as they did tend to go bad. if it is a 5sp be sure that the clutch is good. If the clutch seems wore and the car has low to average miles that is a sign that it was driven hard. Lastly ask the person selling what there best offer has been so far. If they say $3200 than offer $3300. But don't be afraid to pay a little more for a nice car. Good Luck.

The very FIRST thing you need to do is take the car to a shop for an inspection! I am a mechanic and I've seen 100's of cases where people buy the car first and then have it looked at only to find out that it needs 100's of $$ worth of work, & in some cases cost more than the value of the car. Once you have a list of possible repairs & cost of repairs, you can start deducting from the the "asking" price of the car!! ALSO, if the car's condition is acceptable, take cash or cashiers check for $3500. Money talks and b/s walks.

The best way to go about buying a used vehicle is to understand that the dealership is NOT expecting to get the price on the vehicle. If you have the ability to talk to these people in a practicle way, lowball them like they are highballing you. Just throw out a number like 2,900 and they will say you cant be serious. All you have to do is say, well you obviously cant be serious with that 4,000 number there on the windshield, so tell me what you want to get out of it. If not most of the time a dealership is going to pull ATLEAST 30% profit off a used car. So take off 25% and offer that number. 4,000 car....offer 3,200

initially, typically convertibles are worth extra. Hardtop is a well-known time period. In 95 there have been 3 (3) thoughts! The coupe. The convertible. The convertible with detachable hardtop (uncommon)! they're uncommon because Ford canceled them and did not promote them because of high quality complications sort the seller. you'll locate them. they're magnificent in case you stay in an section that truly has seasons. you'll locate them ebay even with the actuality that.

make an offer about 10% lower than asking if the car is in good condition, good mileage etc. Check private party values on KBB and edmunds.com for an idea of what it is worth (we need to know location, mileage, extras etc. to pull this info up)
Always use no higher than good condition even tho' most people claim their vehicle to be in outstanding or excellent condition.

according to the kelly blue book website, a 1995 mustang gt coupe in excellent cond. approx. 92000 miles should retail @ 5300+/- . depending on the conditon of the car, you should be able to safely counter -offer $3300.00 . but, make sure you have reliable technician look it over first.(if thats an option)

Offer 3 and do not agree to one penny higher than 3.5
If they expect to get 4, they should not mention the best offer part.

i just bought a 95 mustang gt conver. 3 weeks ago and paid $4300.00, he wanted $4800.00. book value is $4800.00.
*** also if you have a mechanic look at it you bring the car to him dont bring him to the car .. i know of people who took him to the car and he said it was no good and then the mechanic goes back and buys it for himself***
