is this a good deal?

Buy his cobra, you will be much happier, i wish i had a 4v as well, went with an 03 gt, coulda had a 99cobra with a blower by now for the money i have spent... :( But the ladies do LOVE the fact that its an 03, let alone a mustang. :drool: Definitly go with a manual at least, if you can spring for the cobra you will be happy in the long run. :nice:
 
If you like the idea of an automatic, if the vehicle is in good condition, and if you like it, Ide say go for it. The price sounds pretty good. If you feel unsure, if the vehicle has any problems with it, or if you'de rather have a stick then Ide wait till I found what I really wanted. In the end its up to you. I have a 2001 auto GT thats black w/ the premium package and I love mine.
