44000 mile's on a 98 wow you'll probaly newer see that again. Price is alittle high but if you can talk him down a thousand or two go for it.

Fill me in here a little bit...Im a Camaro guy I dont know much about Mustangs....What is a sn95? and True Duel as in there is no cats, and there is a seperate pipe for each header/manifold, there is no Y pipe.

It kbb's at this...http://www.kbb.com/KBB/UsedCars/Pric...izConditions=0

He has never driven this thing in the rain or snow, he thinks one of his friends will give him 10,000 for it....I just dont want to lose out on a good deal and im not sure where I could find one that is as cheap/ with low miles

Thanks

sn95 is the chassis code for a 94-98 mustang (96-98 have 4.6 engine) and those engines are complete dogs, it will be slower than your car now, if you have 9k to spend, then go get a 99 or 00 camaro ls1

Your '93 Z28 is an IROC-Z? Probably faster than a '98 GT. I think the IROC-Z 5.7's came with 255hp and loads of torque. Still, the Mustang is a better built car, and has arguablely better handling. Welcome to the Stang world!

No, It is the first year of the 4th Gen...It is a 93 Z28 LT1

So I work at a Ford Dealership and Im a Service advisor, I just started 3 months ago...My boss said I can put a ton of bolt ons on that car...to make it faster than my car, should I shop around or try to get it for cheaper?

Thanks

the 96-98 mustangs are non pi and 99+ are PI, which come with more hp stock, you can do a pi swap on the 98 to make it faster and keep up but for the same price or mayb a little more you can already have a car with that...

your boss has mustang fever, and unfortunatly, it doesnt have a cure,

buy a ls1, same price way way faster and the easly 4.6 respond just like any other car, spend the money on hop up on a car thats allready fast, then you can go faster

pi engines are the v8 in 99 and newer mustangs, 260 hp instead of 215-225 in the 96-98-

basically what everyone is telling you is you can get a pi (99 or newer) for 9 grand, dont buy a 96-98, they are basically a dud mustang performance wise
