That 00R was the one I was about to buy this past summer. It's a good looking car (as are the other R's he is selling). I went to see them at the dealer that is selling them in Florida. I ended up going with a different 00R in the end.

Hammer estimates seem realistic on the 95 and 00, Not thinking the 93r market has hit 75-100k.

For 50-70k, I'd much rather have the 00R. Rarity production numbers aside (107/250/300) looking at the 3 R's, the 93 looks like any other red Fox Cobra with different wheels. The 95 looks like every white Mustang from that era and would require a serious enthusiast to spot one in the wild. The 00R does not blend. It does not look anything like other 99-04 Mustangs and has quite a bit of "over-the-top" styling. I like wild-looking rides. They get me fired-up and it's always fun to hear people's comments. The 2000R is also unlike any car I have driven previously. My 750 Shelby and stock Terminator feel calm/relaxed compared to the full-time racecar that is the 00R. They are all fun cars for different reasons, but the R is BEAST!

I agree, which is why I got the 00 first, then the 95, so of course, would like the trifecta. I think I missed the window, because I just can't get my arms around a $60k fox. Maybe the right one will come around someday, I certainly keep my eyes open.

How many miles on your two? I remember those 95r's where selling around 20k super low miles. Now there 30k plus

The 00 is 22xx ish, and the 95 3xxx. I got the 95 a few years ago, and the price started with a 2. I could be wrong, but I think the bottom of the market for all 3 has passed.

I think you're right. From what I've seen over the last several years, the bottom of the market has passed for the Fox body Mustangs in general.

For sure on foxes, all us clowns that grew up with them, now want the ones we couldn't have then. I almost think the bottom has hit up through new edge, could still be a correction though. S197.... That's gonna be a while.
