A pristine 1992 Ford Mustang muscle car has just sold at auction for a huge sum, nearly 10 times more than the sticker price.
It isn’t every day that a car this fresh from over 30 years ago comes up for auction, but this Mustang 5.0 LX is a rare gem that someone is now very lucky to own.
Remarkably, the muscle car was still shrouded in its plastic coverings, with not a blemish or spec of dirt anywhere to be seen.
Despite the high asking price, the Ford Mustang still sold.

What makes this 1992 Ford Mustang so special?
For starters, this muscle car is basically brand new.
The 1992 Ford Mustang 5.0 LX was presented still with factory coverings, keeping the seats and trim nice and fresh.
When it was on sale in the 1990s, the sticker price said the car cost $16,274.
That is the equivalent of $37,000 today, and it recently sold for an amazing $149,000.
As the images show, the muscle car is in a deep shade of green that is truly immaculate.
Inside, the plastic covers have kept the seats and trim very clean, as is the case with every part of the cabin.
The asking price might sound a lot.
But it is very rare that a muscle car comes up in as good a condition as this.
The Mustang has incredibly low mileage
While the car has done some miles, it really isn’t a lot.
The listing said the car had done just 131 miles from new.
That means it is probably one of the lowest-mileage Mustangs of its era in the whole of the United States.
We can even see the original window sticker taped to the passenger side window.
This is an incredible piece of history that a new owner will likely keep as memorabilia.
The car also comes with the original keys, owner’s manuals, and a clean title, too.
Having not run for so long, it might need a bit of a refresh to run as it should.
But having clearly been preserved well, we don’t think it would take too long for this car to hit the roads again.
