Based on description and pictures, is this fair asking price?

I rather get this for if your willing to spend that kind if money http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/cto/3098041407.html

I dont think its worth 8k personally, Hell, if he wants 8k for that then I want 11k for mine lol! it looks lik a decent car though. I would not pay more then 5500-6k for it.... 8k is generally stroker or blower car money

Posted by blackfifty (Member # 9023) on :

I don't see where that 25k went. It's a clean car and worth the price in my opinion tho.

LOL! you posted this about 30 secs before my post. 8k is supercharged car money. But for a ex 4cyl that thing looks clean.

Thanks! Well i gotta get my kid in a ford! Lol, love his teg and we both love driving it but I let him take my stang out for first time and he loved it more!

I saw the blue notch in San leandro but description says it takes 3-4 turns to start and its a conversion....just don't want any issues. Want a reliable car for him to enjoy and b able to drive anywhere and anytime (like mine) just fun to drive and peace of mind

I don't know where this "$25k" went so was just wondering ifu guys know this car or seen it. Looks like Florida plate, is it hard registering out of state cars? Not worried about smog...

Thanks! Oh and yes I agree, 7/8k is blower money! Lol

I thought so....my good friend said same shit. He works at sound innovations in Hayward and said that the amp is flea market and sub box is assembly line status? Maybe I can tell him to take stereo all out and lower price $4k lol

10 grand for a gt40 motor no its 3600 from ford racing with a 500 dollar intake and that is if he bought it brand new i see if all the parts in the motor are bought new about 5000 in it and the color and body looks factory original

I personally would never spend more than 3500 on a fox with 4 lug lol. Dude spent money on a fresh motor setup but in the end it's still a 4 lug hci fox with gears, no suspension no disc brakes, you can tell when someone puts in 25k, this person spent it on shit to just make the car clean/average.

Yea maybe he spent hella $ on install/labor stuff?

Thanks for ur help guys....waiting to see if he emails me back with my questions on how he came up with those numbers. Hope it's justified and makes sense. Suspension brakes and details would help with $7k asking....

Look at the small things. Power feed for the amp is loosely ran with the fuse holder not attached to anything. $25,000 into a car and you dont fix the "deleted" AC? Just the Cobra rear bumper, no grill insert or side skirts? Obviously a cheap sound system. Kinda half assed. Sunroofs are a thing that generally turns me off, but some people like em. Still stock suspension, and 4 lug. I would pick up that blue notch in a heartbeat compared to the 91. Just my opinion though.

the blue coupe ftw even tho its a 4cyl,which is kinda hoot and lightweight over priced but compared to the over priced gt,coupe all day. i personally wouldntpay more than 6500 for either

I tried to poke around off pictures and noticed ashtray has a crack, shifter frame sticks up on left upper corner and def the amp wiring. Wonder whyhe didnt disclose specific brands or pics of woofer brands or amp? Even deck u can tell its low end.

Overall,looks clean and pretty decent shape, love the black interior and freshly installed motor and somewhat nice paint. Just worried about seeing it in person.

I know u want to get your son into a ford, but I think he might regret letting go of the integra. Since its rare and super clean. That gt is really nice but not worth the price.

Thanks, he rarely drives it cause ucpd and Hayward pd seem to hate teens and imports lol, gets pulled over for dumbest shit.

Gas mileage and smooth driving is great don't get me wrong....

We won't trade or junk 5.0 projects and looking to get something nice in the 6-8k range
