Purchasing a car privately
 

I want to get into a mustang again, but I want a new edge body style.

I see a lot of them are up for sale in the 5k dollar price range, which is nice I guess, but I'm doing more research on what I should expect to pay for a near stock GT.

My plan is to get a nice exhaust on it and make it look pretty.

I would love to get into a Mach 1 again but that won't happen :(

Anyway

Do any of you have experience with getting a loan from USAA?

Is there anywhere else I could look at on getting a loan, if I needed one by the time I want to purchase?

Any tips on what to look for when searching for the mustang?

What's the experience really like?


Oh, and hello everyone.

if your military play Navy Federal against USAA for a better rate. I started my loan with USAA and then refinanced before my first payment with Navy Fed and got a .5% rate discount and a check for 250.00 for refinancing with them.


Good luck.

I will check into that, thanks!

Also, does anyone recommend any websites I might look at?

I really want to stay in the $5k price range.

I've looked at craigslist and cars.com, as well as the forums here.

maybe ebay, there are a bunch on there. Up here in Maine there is a Grey Mach 1 with a rebuilt title for 8700.

id recommend navy federal as well, theyve never given me any crap or wanted a ton of details on the car. They have the check ready in a couple hours
