It was listed in Arlington for $20k with very minimal description about the car. The ad said,
1993 Mustang Cobra, 11,000 orig miles. Very Nice. $20k
VIN 1facp42d7pf141435
I emailed the owner and got a response from a lady who's father owned the car since purchased new. She was brief on the phone but ensures it was a good car. I took her word for it And took the 5hr drive north to Arlington. Upon arriving I realized I had found a perfect car, the paint, trim and headlights/taillights appeared new. The interior is flawless and looks and smells brand new. She told me her father owned it since new and only drove it occasionally on weekends. Her father had built a climate controlled garage for it and the car had been sitting for the past 5 years since her father passed. Car has never seen a drop of rain and the undercarriage you can eat off. From the factory Gatorback tires to the factory installed alarm and all the documentation it came with I can say its by far the nicest I have ever seen in person. I talked her down to $17k and brought it home.
I just purchased a black/black cloth w/24k fully documeted that I will soon be listing for sale as I cannot keep both.

Nice car man, I to sent her a E-mail, her sone replied, so I thought it was a SCAM, if it was in my state I would have followed up, but when they are out of state, I steer clear. Glad someone bought the car. Seems 93 prices are on the rise once again,
Every one I look at on all craigs, is either sold, or removed.
Nice car & right in my area too. I believe I saw add on this one in local paper but didn't bother to look into it. No place to keep another car.

Thanks guys, tell you what I couldn't be happier. Really. The car amazes me every time I walk in the garage. The lady who sold it to me wasn't real real concerned about price just wanted her fathers car to be taken care of. I've had it getting a full detail today I'll put up pics when done.
Wow trying to make a buck or two on it I see. Little bit of exaggeration on the description to I think. From my count he's only owned it for 5 months?
