Default need advice

ok, this weekend is my 18th bday, and im goin out to get a new(used) car. (im getting it, not my parents). anyway. originally i was looking at a 5.0, but i think i want something a little newer. i have a few cars to go look at, they are:

96 cobra
96, 97 gt

so anyone who has any kind of experiance w. these cars your opinions are welcome. if yall can give me some pros, and cons on them all that would be great. if anyone knows what these cars run thatll help me too. and of course anything else i should know about them is appreciated. thanks.

Theres no contest, if you want that body style. Go with the 96 cobra without a doupt. Even if it is more money than the others, you will be glade in the long run. Then go pick up a hooker for your 18th birthday.

Well, depending on how much you wanna spend, we will be able to tell you what type of mileage your looking at the car to come with. And i agree, the 96 Cobra is easily the best choice. And about the hooker, thats also a good plan

Best question to ask is this... how much do you have to spend? They are selling 2001 Cobra's fairly cheap nowadays...

well i have a 98 gt, i love the car but if i knew about the whole pi crap i woulda hunted down a 99+, stock i cant compete with much, if i had a choice i would go for a cobra if at all possible or go for a 94-95 or 99+, but i had 5k to spend and wanted a gt convert so i took what i could find
