Default Should I consider buying



http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...;category=6236</P>


I am looking at buying a mustang like this, but I am new to mustang performance. Does this mustang seem to have reliable and dependable parts (i.e. engine, supercharger, etc.)? I guess my main question is should I buy this car in the condition it is and if so what recommendations would you give me to further modifying it? Thanks.</P>

I'd pass do you want to spend 16k and still have to fix things?...take your time and look around.. mind you it's a nice looking car and has some nice mods done but with 6 k on the engine and a H/G leaking tells a story of being run hard an / or not done rite...if still interested have him fix the problems then go look at it and buy it if you like..good luck

rethinking the whole scenario...if you want performance, but you dont know a whole lot, get a saleen or roush, or one of the other "run fastout of the box" aftermarketers. probably a lot better done.

sometime it's ok to buy one because someone has gotten rid of the headaches that come along with these cars

go with the roush stage 3 or if you want to do stuff yourself get a stage two and supercharge it yourself
