Lower mileage {95,000 km}, decent price {$9,500 negotiable}.

Might be worth a look.

300 rwhp on a just a tune? Tuned by Steeda w/Superchips AND and an SCT Xcal? When a guy either is this clueless or misrepresents his car on purpose like this, you have to wonder what it is really like. Considering the low price he's asking, I'd be very suspicious.
CarFax is your friend.

I wonder how long he's owned it, as those plates beginning with BL would have been issued in 2011.
As for Carfax, don't trust a car just because Carfax states it's clean. I could crash my car into a pole today, have my two buds fix it like new and have it for sale by Saturday. She'd look like mint according to Carfax. ;)
Does the colour look different from the front door forward? Wonder why the passenger front mat is on the drivers side. I've emailed the seller to satisfy my enquiring mind.

CarFax is a good start is what I meant. Every safety measure has a go-around, and nothing is better than a good close hands-on examination.

I noticed the missing mat, too.

FYI that's 95000 miles, not kilometers. That's a US car, check out the speedometer.

Also, to me it looked fishy. I thought it was an accident repair. Don't ask me how I know, it just looks fishy.

Yes, the cluster is a US market one, but if you can read the odo, you have great eyes. I think the owner probably (hopefully?) did the conversion and listed it. That would make it a 60K mile car or so....even more fishy for the asking price.

I sent him an email, it's 95k miles.

I sent him an email. He has not responded. Maybe the @ford scared him?
