If that's the kind of car you want, shop around first. $4K is high for one of them. I wouldn't go for more than $3.5K unless it is in exceptional condition and you have service records(or at least know the service history of it). At the auction (which I know most of you don't have access to) a 99 with that mileage would sell for about $1.5K to $2K so $3.5 for a private sale would be reasonable. From a dealer that would have to make it pass inspection and recondition it(but they don't have to warranty it if it's over 100K) you can expect to pay $4k-$4.5K just because of the added over head.



I'm really not looking for anything in particular. I just figured I'd ask people who are in the know about the Cougars. My reasons for interest are:

1: I have knowledge on the 2.5L(Duratec) platform.
2: It's a 5 speed and black
3: Beats the hell out of driving a teal Sunbird.
