Many times you can find exactly what you want, CHEAPER and fly out / drive it home or ship it - than settling for something local.  You set on a convertible? Now is the time.  [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.haselwoodvolkswagen.com/used/Ford/2001-Ford-Mustang-b064f7d20a0e094a6d02e3891bafef8b.htm[/URL]That's a franchise VW dealer with a 52K mile '01 GT Ragtop (Auto) for under $11K in WA state. I GUARANTEE you - it being OCTOBER you could get that car for $10K flat if not under. Fly in - drive it home.That's just an extreme example. I've convinced people over the years on this route, ESPECIALLY if you live in a place that tends to see a lot of rusty cars. If I was looking for a SN95 convertible, rust free, - I'd be using zip codes for cities in FLORIDA and checking FB marketplace etc. Just me.Here's a 1 OWNER with 62K 5 speed[URL unfurl="true"]https://www.centralasllc.com/2003-Ford-Mustang-East-Windsor-CT-Ellington-Windsor-Bloomfield-Hartford/used_car/BYAZJyWa1fc%3d[/URL]68K car in PA[URL unfurl="true"]https://www.spitzerduboisford.com/inventory/used-2003-ford-mustang-gt-rwd-2-door-convertible-1fafp45x53f416197/[/URL]These are all at dealers and still priced lower than the car you shared. Also depends on how they are on price. It's almost Winter, in PA - not exactly the best time to sell a ragtop. $13K in an ad - that CAN equal $9-10K in cash in person. All depends.It mainly depends on what you want and what the seller is dealing with. Good luck.</blockquote>
