Looks really clean, i just wanted the opinion on the asking price from the caford gods. Lower? If so, what would be a reasonable offer...

I like it! I don't really know what its worth but the ad alone is well written and the guy obviously likes the car and knows something about it. This seems like kind of a rare find because I have seen so many fox buckets on the market for years now and this is not one of them.

Very nice and clean and I wouldn't let the mileage bother you much on this one, just my intuition.

Since he's asking $8,400 he wanting to get 8k. You might be able to pick it up for $7,500 though....who knows. I don't think this guy is desperate though...just a guess.

A lot of people will tell you they bought their fox body for way cheaper and it had this and that, blah, blah, blah. If I was selling the car and you made a low ball offer, I'd tell you go ahead and go find one for what you are offering. People need to realize that they don't make these cars anymore, they are sought after and it's tough to find them nice like this one. You aren't getting this car for $3900.

No doubt, an offer that low didnt even cross the buyers mind. but we can agree that its clean as hell.

Clean looking car. Looks like 2015 yellow registration sticker, if it has current tags ask for a recent picture.

Heck no, there should be a blue Ford oval in the front. Even 6K is too much, 4500.

Heads up if anyone is thinking of checking the car out. The craigslist pics are deceiving. Door handles are loose and need to be carefully used to open the door, rust forming under rear trunk ford oval emblem, clear coat/paint oxidizing on the right rear trunk area, right front quarter panel/fender is not lined up and looks to have been hit/pushed in, makes a clicking sound when braking, oil around the heads (looks to be wiped clean or an attempt to be wiped clean).

Long drive to find these flaws in person that should have been pointed out in the ad, but luckily 3 of us went up and we turned it into a mancation (went up friday came back saturday), so it wasnt that bad because there is a casino nearby.

Clean car but not $8400 clean, not even $4800 clean IMO.

"Clean" and what you described don't add up to me [Confused]
Sucks you had to drive up there because some jack ass made this car seem like something it wasn't.
The seller must be dyslexic and meant $4,800 not $8,400. Should've told him thanks for wasting our time you POS. I'm gonna flag it as we all should!!
