>he didn't get the ecoboost model
Brandon Thomas
You overpaid by about $2k
Joseph Garcia
good news you got the manuel. got some pictures of the inside?
Isaiah Wilson
You overpaid by about $500. Not bad as long as you can wrench.
Justin Perry
Where're you? I'm in the northeast and KBB is around $4600, with ads on CL in the $6-8K range.
Cooper Lee
Should of gotten one 10 years older
Kevin Scott
I'm just going off what I personally think it's worth given the tendencies of the previous owner.
KBB values are completely irrelevant with enthusiast-compatible cars.
Ethan Russell
not bad, user.
Benjamin Bailey
You paid over 4k for a plastic mustang.
Hunter Jones
nice one
looks like a good buy
just maintain it and that will be loads of fun
Jack Watson
>given the tendencies of the previous owner.
Like what, other than the cosmetic shit? It's clean for a 2004 and all the major service is done. No signs of hoonage or neglect.
Wyatt Hill
it's a mustang, it's very existence is for hoonage
IDK, it certainly doesn't sound like a "great condition" car, but I'd probably get that at that price if I were into mustangs.
Blake Ward
12 year old car with those parts replaced in the last two years? I've done more than that to my mother's Camry since 2014.
Liam Myers
'04 is the only SN95 with a 8-thread heads: fewer plug blowouts.
Isaac Torres
Bump.
Dylan Smith
The clutch on this really is brutal. Supposedly has a new stock Ford OEM clutch, but the engagement is like on/off. Bad clutch cable or what?
Adam White
If you've got no rust and the owner since new I'd say not too bad. You paid a bit more but you got a cleaner specimen.....Is it manual?
I paid 3500 for 03 GT with 165k on the Odo
Christian Allen
My GT has a pretty heavy clutch but it's not that bad, sounds a little janky.
Elijah Rogers
It's not too heavy, it's just that as you're lifting your your foot off all the sudden it grabs. If the clutch really is new I'm thinking the cable might be binding. That sound reasonable?
Going from a Miata to this is hilarious. That car had a clutch I could work with my little toe.
David Turner
Lubricate the clutch cable. It needs to be a lubricant that will use capillary action to flow down the entire length of the cable. Used motor oil might not be a bad choice. You are likely used to hydraulic clutches.
New Edge Mustangs are massive pieces of shit and I know because I owned one and had to drive it.
Brody Morris
>bought a mustang to replace a miata
you fucked up enjoy your piss poor suspension and build quality
Connor Clark
This car is complete crap . Mustangs are ugly Ass cars
Nolan Hughes
Miata was my DD for three years. I was already thinking of replacing it (too small) when I found out the rust had eaten into the frame.
Was looking at GTIs and Focus SVTs but I figured I'd go full mullet and get a muscle car.
James Harris
I don't think you could pay me to drive a mid 2000s 'stang
Ryder Ramirez
Anyone done an Ecoboost swap into an SN95 or Foxbody?
Jack Myers
You misspelled power-loss model wrong, user.
Wyatt Adams
Not a fan of the body style and the engine is weak sauce compared to Coyote's, but premium with leather seats and a manual was a good move. I think you did just fine with the money you had.
