What's with kelly bluebook an NADA prices looking at a 88 crown victoria ford with 107k miles in good shape?

The sellers asking 2800 which is 100 dollars over good shape in the NADA Prices. Fair is 1k good is like 1800 an mint is 2800. The seller said he wants 2500 would take 2250 i'm offering 1800 tops for it. Is this a good car to get. Its got a 5.0 v8 looks clean runs good.

I would stick with $1800. Even if it lasts only two years, you got your money's worth. The VA is going to suckers a lot of gas.

A car that old is NEVER "mint". It's fair to good. Offer a price based on THAT.

(1) Kelly Blue Book is an approximation and the older the car is the less accurate it is.

(2) The seller can do as they like. Even if you are making a fair offer they don't have to accept it.

Look it up. Why should strangers do it for you?

The miles should be questioned or looked up via carfax.

A car that old is a gas guzzler plus it could break down at any time. I would avoid a car that old.

You can't depend on KBB or NADA prices for a car that old. "Looks clean and runs good" -- not a sufficient evaluation of such an old car's condition. Get a mechanic look it over BEFORE you buy for any price.
