I test drove a 99 GT Anniversary Edition today. It had CAI and i think an exhuast.  It actually surprised me, and was a pretty decent ride. I'm considering it, but its a 99 with 117k and the dealership wants 9901 out the door. Too expensive, right?

Way to expensive man.  You can find a 97-98 Cobra with under 100,000 miles for 7-8k.  Or if you want newer, you can find 02-03 GT's with under 50k miles for under $15,000.  Just look around man.

Oh yea man.. lol.. run away, and never look back....

I can't believe that a dealership *be it large or small* can even BEGIN TO THINK they'd get offers like that on a car with such high mileage.

IF you go back there, tell them that it is quite possibly one of the most ridiculous sales on a 99-04 Mustang anyone has ever heard of.

I bought my '99 back in '04 with 48,000 miles for 9500.....

People are *like said above* gettting 99-01's with HALF that mileage for around, or less than that price.

No kidding.

But yeah, a 99 GT with 100K+ miles is more in the $6-7K range.

If i got them to come down, you think i should go for it? I mean, i would do things to it, like heads/cam, etc. so the top end would be newer..

Up to 8,000 or so, but the lower the better.

Search autotrader.com or carmax.com.  You can put in the year range, price range, mileage range and everything.

I have, didnt find much.

What kind of highway mileage does a 5 speed GT get?

Lets be honest, where does a 99 + GT  stand with an LS1? I've driven them both, but they were not like right after each other, so i couldnt really tell. People made me think the stangs were dogs, so i was surprised, but the LS1 = powerhouse.  Stock for stock, LS1 is faster, but how much $ does it take to make the stang a competitior?

A few bolt ons and a 100 shot of nitrous should get the job done.  Or you could just slap on a S/C or turbo, or you could dig deep and do full bolt ons with cams and heads.

Theres a red 99 GT with a 5spd manual for sale for $9900 with 82,500 miles on it.  Its a private seller and the guy said the price is negotiable, but maybe the bank can give you $9000 for it and you can pick it up, and guess what, the motor is FORGED!!  And its in Springfield.  I was born and raised in Bloomington, IL.

That reminds me of when I was looking for my first mustang back in December before I bought the 06...I found a lady down the street from me selling a beautiful, black, 01 GT with around 50K (don't remember the exact number.) So I call her up, ask for a price, and she says 19,000 "because it was financed and she needed to clear the title."

PAY FASTER LADY

I would say somewhere around 7000-7500 should get you out the door. Don't get caught up on that one car. Be patient and check autotrader and Ebay daily and you will find what you are looking for.
