[QUOTE="mustang5o, post: 13397896, member: 44208"] OK so I'm trying to gather as much information as I can in the next few (busy-as-hell) days to decide if I want this car. For a little more background see my other thread [URL="http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/terminator-talk-229/959427-new-v-used.html"]http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/terminator-talk-229/959427-new-v-used.html[/URL] The car I'm most interested in is a 2004 Mystichrome Convertible that is bone stock with 13,000 miles. During nice weather it's going to be somewhat of a daily driver (it will never see rain, snow, ice or salt if I can help it). I can get the car for $25,500. Would you consider that a good deal? If I keep the car completely stock, do they run 91 or 93 octane? I just noticed a gas station I was at today had 10% ethanol in their 91, is that normal?

Any general maintenance issues or common problems I haven't read about yet? Thanks again for all the help. considering the small overall number of these cars this site has a great community and great support. [/QUOTE]
