They're great cars, especially if you do a Supercharged, but any model will turn heads and drive like nothing else...

If you're open to other model years in New Edge design, you could also do an S351 or Extreme.

Prices have been really been attractive lately.

A couple questions:

1> Why did you pick '01 versus the range of "new edge" '99-'04?

2> What is your budget?

Supercharged would be a good daily driver. How much power do you plan on getting out of the car? Do you plan on doing anything with it?
