Got my new car!

Blackout said:

Nothing exciting or anything but thought i would share nonetheless. Its a 1995 Ford Taurus GL. I found some used car lot selling one and the car is in perfect shape and the guy told me they wanted $1199 for it. So I tried to talk him down and he said that the advertised price in the autotrader was a misprint and that he was selling it for a lot more but he honored the price from the autotrader and sold it to me for $1199.

Good luck woth your new purchase is it a stopgap or a keeper?

Congrats on the purchase and goodluck with the Taurus and also what MC5 asked.

Aww what, no SHO? My friend picked up a 92 SHO, granted it's not mint, but the only major problem was the back bumpers has a nasty crack in the plastic part and bit of a leak from the front main. It was on ebay and we drove out to San Antonio to get it, cost $945.

The SHO is pretty bad ass...four door hot rod mustang, basically...but EXPENSIVE to fix!!!

I had a 1991 SHO+. Awesome car when running 100% but for a 17 year old kid working part time at Target I just couldn't keep up with the cost for getting stuff fixed. But the 3.0 V6 in those things is a work of art! But this Taurus is just going to be a beater car so that atleast have some wheels and also to save up money so I can get a nicer car. Haven't thought that far down the road yet as to what I want but I'm thinking possibly another Mark VIII but this time I'monly looking at 95-96 LSC's only. I'm not going through the fiasco of those headlights on the non-LSC models EVER AGAIN!!

Congrats Bud. As long as you are happy, etc.
