I have owned several Fox body mustangs and am aware of what to look for on them in terms of things being wrong, except for the easy things is there anything special I should inspect before buying a new edge mustang? Its a 2004 5 speed GT, its yellow with black interior and it has gun metal color bullet wheel on it.
Thanks

basically, everything you look for in a fox body, look for on the new edge.

2004 was a pretty good year for the SN95 since it was the last. No real major problem areas. Just check the usual used-car stuff and find something that is clean and well-maintained vs moddified and potentially beat on

The first things I look for............
Leaks, Smoke, Funny noises, Rust. Then check the oil dipstick and trans.
