dude, its a mustang. Youll love it, the ladies will love it, its fast and it has a 10 disc changer? what more do you want? Although, you should get a cool color, like black. You dont want a fricking yellow mustang.

Im just saying, if he has choice. But for that price, and if i didnt have a car, Id take a purple one, or even a pink one. But I have a pretty damn nice car now, so its all good.

I have a chrysler cirrus now, white, with a 6 disc changer. I love it, but it gets dirty too damn fast. I need a black car.

I wouldn't buy it. 110k miles is a lot for a ford engine. I've owned 2 fords and the transmissions and engines are pretty bad... I'd stay away from that mustang if I were you. Plus, mustangs pretty much suck. If it isn't a cobra or a saleen, it's not worth the money, even a brand new one. They have horrible horrible handling in any kind of bad weather, so if you live anywhere that it rains or snows, look for something else. I also think they're ass ugly, but that's just my opinion.
The fact that it has a 10cd changer should not have any influence on your purchase at all. Those things can be added for pretty cheap, and at better quality than the stock piece of shit.
I also think $5,500 is too much. I wouldn't buy it.

If you get mad that your white car gets dirty fast, don't get a black car. They're 10 times worse. I've owned 2 black cars and you can spend 6 hours washing and waxing the damn thing, then drive it down the road and 30 minutes later it's dirty as hell.... white is way easier to take care of than black.

Pretty much all used explorers in that price range are going to have a shit load of miles on them. I'm too tired to think right now, so next time I see this thread I'll recommend something else.
