Well, in the spring I'm getting a new car, but my money is limited. One thing I have heard around my campus is about buying their cars from Police Auctions. Now, from the people I hear it from I cant really put 100% trust in so I got a few questions about them.
#1-Are the cars normally in atleast average shape? (I dont wanna buy a car and have it break down a week later)
#2-Are there any types of Mileage or Year warranties available?
#3-Is there a good chance if I go to a few auctions ill find a nice 94-98 GT/Cobra?
#4-Around what price do Mid 90's Mustang GT/Z28's sell for?
Any Replies would be great, especially from someone who may have bought their car from there. Thanks!

The cars come all ways ... some good some not so good, and usually the ones i've seen are sold as is, so you have to be very observant and careful. Warranty wise, in your area perhaps but usually no. whether or not you stumble onto a 94-98 GT/Cobra is just a crap shoot ?
I'll tell you this, its very easy to get caught up in the excitement of an auction and pay to much, so you absolutely must know the value of what your looking for before you go, otherwise a good auctioneer will strip you to the bone !! I'd give you some blue book values but my books are in the trunk of my car and wifey is off visiting so i can't
Consider yourself warned .... know the value of what you're after BEFORE you go or they'll have you paying 10 grand for a 5 grand car and you'll be out bragging what a great deal you got !
