Ok, I ask for an unbiased opinion here, this being the mustang newsgroup.
Me: 1992 LX 5.0, no options, former California patrol car
111,000 miles. Exterior has hood and front fascia damage. hood needs replaced along with all weatherstripping. driver side door has problems. needs paint job. interior in poor shape, except for dashboard which is great. carpets/seats and door side panels are in poor conditionThe engine however is in great condition, the car has almost never been dogged and is always fed high octane gas. Along with regular oil changes, etc.. Tranny is fine. Clutch is the mid-grade version of the Centerforce.. (very strong)
Him:
1991 Taurus SHO, great condition inside and out. 115,000 miles. Engine seems to run great. Owner told me engine has been recently "rebuilt". I understand these engines can have problems with certain censors which are hard to replace. Not sure if they have been replaced yet.Is this is a fair trade, straight up, car for car? I'm interested in having a more comfortable ride and this drives nice, is very roomy, and has lots of options. Not to mention its pretty darn fast (of course not as fast as the stang).
