Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Overall the car is in excellent condition, mechanically it is near perfect. All flaws are detailed better in the description, but the front tires are getting old, there is some paint oxidation on the front and rear bumper panels, and there is a small dent on the bottom of the passenger door. The rest of the paint is great, but does show some signs of age since it is a 96. Please read the entire description and look at all of the pictures! Also ask questions if you are unsure about anything."

This is a beautiful 96 Mustang with less than 80,000 miles! The car is 100% original and rust free with a black leather interior and a 5-speed transmission. One good thing about this car is that it has never been messed with and altered with a bunch of after market parts and still retains factory reliability. The car has never been beat on which is obviously very uncommon for a mustang. The proof for this is that close to 80,000 miles the original tires from 96 were finally changed and not because the tread was gone, but because they were dried out and started to crack.

This car has also been recently maintained and updated so whoever buys it will be able to drive it without the need to do anything. Here is a list of recent updates:
6/13/13 74,603 miles - Kuhmo AST tires on the rear ($292)
6/20/13 75,204 miles - Motul Engine Clean oil flush, oil change with Royal Purple Oil ($74 for filter and oil) and transmission fluid change with Royal Purple Synchomax ($68 just for fluid)
6/25/13 75,676 miles - NGK Laster Iridium Premium Plugs ($86 not including labor)
7/5/13 Gas Mileage Check, 24.78mpg with 240 miles driven at 75mph


Here is a break down to the best of my knowledge of each area of the car. ALL know issues will be addressed!

Engine - All original, ZERO problems, starts right up, runs very strong and smooth, no missing, idles perfect.
Engine accessories - Belt tension pulley occasionally squeaks but goes away once the car is warmed up.
Transmission - Shifts 100% perfectly, synchronizers are great, no issues at all.
Interior - All gauges work, no check engine lights are on, the radio has been replaced with a cd player, black leather that is in excellent condition for a 96. The dash and door panels are literally brand new in appearance, and the carpet is very nice too. The only flaw with the interior is that although the carpet is very nice, you can tell that people have driven the car before meaning that for a 96 its probably about the best you can get.
Suspension - The car rides excellent with no complaints, but there is a squeak in the front passenger side during slow speeds when there are bumps. The car drives down the road straight too but will need any alignment as some point because the steering wheel is slightly off while driving straight.
Body - The body itself is in great shape and all of the lines and body panels line up perfectly. The passenger side door has a small dent/scratch on the bottom rear corner from where a vehicle slightly bumped into it in a parking lot. There are 2 pictures showing the damage.
Paint - All of the metal panels look great as far as the paint goes, but keep in mind the paint is from 96 so it does show some age but still shines bright and looks great! There is some oxidation on the plastic front/rear bumper panels and I took several pictures of that too.
Tires/brakes - Rear tires are brand new, the front ones will need replaced somewhat soon. The brakes have life left as they don't make any noises and the car stops just fine!
Other - The A/C does work! It blows very cold! There are power windows and locks as well.

If you have any questions about anything please feel free to contact me and I will respond as soon as possible.

2023 Detroit Auto Show Mega Photo Gallery: All the new reveals and first looks

Wed, Sep 13 2023

The 2023 Detroit Auto Show didn’t play host to a lot of reveals, but on top of the new cars that were revealed there, automakers brought a whole bunch of cars we havenÂ’t seen in person yet. In a show of home strength, all the big reveals came from the hometown Big Three, with Ford, GM and Stellantis playing host to the most important unveilings. We took Huntington Place by storm to capture all of the new cars and sights to see in Detroit, and you can see everything we did in the series of galleries below. Interesting special editions like the 2024 Ford F-150 Lightning Platinum Black Edition and the 2024 Chevrolet Camaro CollectorÂ’s Edition found some floor space alongside bigger debuts like the refreshed gasoline-powered F-150 and 2024 Jeep Gladiator with its new interior. If you wanted to see it all yourself, make sure you check out our guide on how to attend the public show days.

Road & Track samples rare 1995 Ford Mustang Cobra R

Sat, Jun 6 2015

The modern performance variant of the Ford Mustang enjoys a long, illustrious history. While well-known examples like the Boss 302, Shelby GT350, and Shelby GT500 get all the attention, the modern versions of these cars may not have been possible had it not been for the three generations of the Cobra R, sold in 1993, 1995, and 2000. Limited to just 250 examples, the second-generation model wasn't as rare as the Fox-body Cobra R that preceded it, but they were still pricey and difficult to acquire. Customers were required to hold a competition license in order to take delivery, and prices were roughly equivalent to $59,000 in today's money. As Road & Track tells it, neither of those facts were a handicap – Ford sold its entire roster of 1995 Cobra Rs in just five days. RT's Jack Baruth managed to score a drive in an extremely low-mileage example of this now-vintage track star. He delivers an interesting look into the way a performance car from two decades ago behaves in today's world, and finds that despite its age, the 1995 Cobra R is still "a true sweetheart." Check out the full feature over at Road & Track. Related Video:

2015 Ford Mustang earns Five Stars from NHTSA [w/video]

Fri, Feb 13 2015

We already know that the latest Ford Mustang is a pretty potent pony car in terms of its performance potential, but according to the government, it's a safe choice too. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recently released its New Car Assessment Program crash test results for the 2015 'Stang coupe, and it came away with top five-star overall ratings in every evaluation. The Mustang received a five-star overall score and five stars for its frontal, side and rollover ratings. The only minor ding was a four-star result just for the backseat in a side barrier crash. According to NHTSA, "Although not included in the star rating, the rear passenger's thoracic rib deflection was elevated." You can check out the full NCAP evaluation, here. According to Ford, the latest Mustang has twice as many airbags and crash sensors as the outgoing model. NHTSA also likes that the pony car offers a rearview camera and forward collision warning – two of the technologies that the agency recommends buyers getting for added safety. Watch the car crash in the video below. 2015 MUSTANG EARNS HIGHEST VEHICLE SAFETY RATING FROM NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION National Highway Traffic Safety Administration awards the all-new 2015 Mustang a five-star Overall Vehicle Score in its New Car Assessment Program All-new Mustang has twice as many airbags, twice as many peripheral crash sensors and additional pretensioning safety belt technology compared to the outgoing model The new Mustang is the first car to offer four-, six- and eight-cylinder engines that each produce at least 300 horsepower – a 300-horsepower 3.7-liter V6, a more powerful 435-horsepower 5.0-liter V8, and an all-new 310-horsepower 2.3-liter EcoBoost® engine DEARBORN, Mich., Feb. 11, 2015 – The 2015 Ford Mustang received a top safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
