RE: Which Mustang?
I personally like what Legend Mustangs car they built. I saw both of their models at a Mustang show this past weekend and they look and sound absolutely amazing. And hey... with their version of the Cobra coming with 650hp blown with a kb charger who wouldn't? Check them out at http://www.legendmustangs.com/index.html I spoke with the owner about them and he said in the near future he is retiring and making this his full time job so I hope to see some more of them around.

RE: Which Mustang?
I don't own a Mustang, but IF I were going to buy one-
1st pick- '03-04 SVT Cobra, pref a 10th Ann or Mystic
2nd pick- S197 Shelby GT in black or Grabber
3rd pick- A nice Fox bod, espec a '93 Cobra, but a clean notch would work too
Honorable mentions-
-New Edge Saleen S281E
-Mach 1
-'96-98 Cobra

RE: Which Mustang?
Obviously, you've got a lot of opptions. One of the coolest things about Mustangs is the amount of aftermarket mods, kits and other stuff you can get. Just look at what you want to do with the car and start looking at whats out there. My suggestion is to get something newer (say, a 99-08) and make it unique, and have fun with it.

I appreciate the rundown. I do like the looks of the Fox bodies GT's, but being in the awesome Northeast, the majority of these cars are showing their age by rusting and deteriorating.
I like the 99 Cobra and REALLY like that bodystyle as well as the new style. But, asI said, I'm seeing ALOT of 2005-present 'Stangs sitting on the used car lots and I'm VERY curious as to why they are there. You can normally gauge how much a car is liked and how popular it is by how many are NOT on the used car lot. I'm wondering why so many are being traded in so soon after being purchased.
Keep feeding me your opinions and experiences people. I am VERY interested and am taking notes!

RE: Which Mustang?
fox's are hit or miss in the looks dept. but can be some of the sexyist also they keep a certain "classic essesence" (primarily because 79-83 are techniquely in the state of MI). Watchout for the earlier fox's because like earlier stated the handling is rough.
