Do you ever have 2v buyers regret?

its nice to have the option to pic and choose.Ford gave us a nice platform in the 4.6 along with all those really nice heads...2v-3v- and 4v's. You can make any of them run pretty good. Pretty soon we won't have v-8 engines at all with the new fuel requirements imposed by the government. I'm keeping my 2v 4.6 as long as I can. I have no regrets having what I have except every time I see one of those R code 2000 Mustangs Cobras.

I don't regret getting my 2v... I've enjoyed building it to where it is and working on it. I wish it had more power and the paint looked a little better and the interior was nicer, but I would wish that out of any car. I've put a lot of money into my car and I will continue to put a lot of money in it. When it's time to do some serious overhaul, I'll keep the body and probably put a bigger engine in it and redo the suspension and etc. etc. It's my car, I'm going to build it to be what I want it to be. I find more satisfaction out of building it than buying it.

...and I call it a sports car

I think I'd regret it more if (puts on flame suit) I bought a regular GT. I know my Bullitt is pretty much a GT with add ons, but the styling cues, the rarity, and the looks I get are priceless. With that being said, I came from the 6er world and didn't do enough research on the 4v-2v engines. I seem to jump back n forth like boduke on my car. I regret it but then I don't. Oh well, she's mine till the day I die though.

got the centennial gt back in 2004 7000miles it was bone stock and since then i have dumped alot into it and i have no regrets its about to be supercharged and its paid off its all mine and anything extra that been done to it came from my hard work as far as rarity it i like driving around and ppl look at the centennial badge on the side and be like "wtf is that" and knowing that there is only 717 black centennial coupes make me hold on to mine too. its just a diff feeling when you build it vs buying it i guess. then again others may feel different its up to you

Too bad our cars are only good for straight line. Sure you could dump $8k into suspension but not the best building plat from if you're looking to turn.
