yea . . . see the 94-98 v6 mustangs were "single port" and the 99-04 style v6's were "split port" the split port came with about 50 more hp stock then the single port. So what manny people do (including myself) is either swap in a 99-04 engine, or swap in the heads/intakes from a 99-04 engine to get some easy power and a better starting platform.

Although it really all depends on what you are wanting to do with the car, how serious you will be on modding it.

94-98 = 145hp
99-04 = 193hp

Manual is fine.

i see what your saying about split port. And yeah kinda is weird the price is cheap and miles are extremely low gonna email the guy for more pictures of it . but for modding probly put just rims on it cause i dont plan on keeping it long want to get a 99-04 mustang after i turn 18 so if any mods they will be light.

Looks like a good car.

Since he said it wasn't in showroom like appearance, you could definintely get it professionally detailed if you don't have the tools.

Just have the outside polished (swirl-free) and then a nice coat of wax. Shouldn't be more than $100-125 for just the paint correction. I'm sure you can clean and shine wheels/tires. If you did this, that car would look amazing.

Well... Its not worth 5,000 bucks

BUT... its only got 20,000 miles on it...

So odds are that its been taken good care of...

Its a great car... don't need to worry bout it breaking down... decent on gas... looks good...

go for it
