I personally think stangs are harder to shift. Or maybe its just my clutch
I'd say thats a pretty good deal for a dealership. The dealerships around here sell 03's for 18-19k. I paid 12500 before taxes for my 03 gt through a dealership, becasue it had problems with the rear axle. Paid 700 to get it fixed.
Jaybird- someone told me the same thing the first time i road a dirtbike. Well none the less i plowed it into a car that same day. haha

Nice find gotta love the way that paint sparkles in the sun. Used to have a 2003 v6 stang that color. Once you get used to that stick you will never go back to auto.

Welcome to the very exclusive Group of current mustang owers who formally had thunderbirds. I acuatlly just made that up, but you get the point.

Well, I'm actually planning on keeping the bird for my winter beater.


Good idea, not the best winter car especially in snow, but she does have a few extra pounds than the stang. [/blockquote]

ull get use to it it took me about aweek before i was comfortable driving stick, after 2 days i was fine with hill but it took the whole week for me not to be nervous, just know you can start moving before the clutch is out all the way you dont have to let out the second you move an inch thats what caused me to buck

Congrats on the car. When driving a standard, if you ever run into trouble don't panic just press the clutch and brake to the floor and hold til all is calm, then try again.
