A new Mustang lists for $30K. Would you rather have a vintage one?

A base 2022 Mustang with the 2.3-liter Ecoboost four-cylinder engine, a manual transmission, and one option—premium floor mats—priced on Ford’s configurator lists for $29,710, including $1395 in shipping and a $645 “acquisition fee.”

Are you sure you wouldn’t like a vintage Mustang for under $30,000?

We’ve listed a half-dozen here available on Hagerty Marketplace. See if one of these tickles your fancy.

1973 Ford Mustang

The 1971–1973 Mustangs have gotten an unfair rap for being, well, a little bulbous compared to the slicker 1969 and 1970 models. If you’re just looking for a stock cruiser, this ultra-clean, yellow 1973 Mustang convertible is awfully appealing: second owner, 46,000 miles, the proper Magnum 500 wheels, and a 5.0-liter V-8, which produces an EPA-strangled 136 horsepower but will still make the right noises. A nice Sunday afternoon ride for $16,000.

1999 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra

One owner, 61,000 miles, some performance modifications such as a Superchip, Kenny Brown suspension components, 18-inch Ford Racing FR500 wheels, Eibach springs, and an Optima battery. It all adds up to a very nice, well cared-for, manual-transmission 1999 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra convertible for $18,000, if you don’t mind what is likely a stiffish ride on rough pavement. The sticker shows an original price of $32,000, by the way.

1966 Ford Mustang

Yes, this 1966 Mustang needs a little work—the owner says it has basically been sitting since 2019, but it supposedly runs well, though it likely needs a tune-up and a new rear seal in the transmission. Mileage is unknown, but that really doesn’t matter much with a car this age.

Yellow with a black vinyl top, Magnum 500 wheels, a very clean interior—we’d guesstimate this one in #3, or “Good,” condition, and since Hagerty values such a base Mustang V-8 coupe at $23,800, this price of $25,000 is pretty close to the target.

1968 Ford Mustang convertible

“Not a show car or trailer queen but a very reliable, nice weather cruiser,” says the 28-year owner of this 1968 Mustang convertible, with a V-8 and an automatic transmission.

The car was repainted 15 years ago, and some of the interior has been redone, including upholstery. Red with a black top—an appealing color combination. A solid car with good bones, and like the owner says, “Enjoy it as it is, or invest small amount to have a great car.” The price is $30,000, a bit under the Hagerty #3 condition value.

2000 Mustang GT (Saleen S281 Speedster)

If you’re looking for a little extra performance and a lot of extra flash, this 2000 Mustang GT convertible with the Saleen S281 Speedster package in a rare, one-of-one “Sunburst Gold” exterior and black leather interior (it’s confirmed by Saleen) might be up your alley.

This 281 Speedster (281 is the displacement, in cubic inches, of the 4.6-liter V-8) is a lifetime California car with only 28,000 miles. It has Saleen bodywork, Saleen chrome wheels, a hard-shell tonneau cover and a roll bar. It has minor blemishes inside and out, but otherwise is exceptionally well turned out. It comes with a clean CarFax for $26,000.

1993 Mustang GT

The like-it-or-leave-it bodyside cladding was a mark of the 1990s on multiple vehicles, including this 1993 Mustang GT convertible, the last year of the Fox-body style.

This car, nicknamed “Sheba” by the owner, has 59,000 miles and everything on it works, including the fabric top. There are no photos of the cloth interior, but it is said to be “in very good condition.” The 5.0-liter engine and five-speed manual transmission have a reputation for durability. Priced under the Hagerty “Good” condition value of $14,800.
