hey guys
Well my friend Jackie is looking at an 01 Mustang GT for about $7k. Obviously, thats a sweet deal. Heres the catch, it has 85k miles on it. The price is sweet, but the miles are crazy high for its age. She really wants it, but I told her to watch out and get it checked first. Her mechanic is going to take a look at it tomarrow or the next day. I told her to have him do a compression leak down test on the motor. Also, to have a carfax check done to check if its a lemon or has a salvage title. Its blue, hardtop, and an automatic.
So what do you guys say? Should she take it if everything checks out ok, or still pass it up??
I just dont want her to have the nightmare I went thru with my stang. Blown headgaskets 3 months after I buy it, ****ed up radiator, fan, waterpump, costing lots of cash and time. Im also gonna tell her to look into a warantee.
Thank!!
