Hmm not very positive posts, lol but I guess I cant expect much from a mustang forum :P One thing I really like is the low km's. And even though imports are harder to work on and more of a pain, they dont seem to break as often.
Not really man. For twenty year old cars, foxs are pretty bullet proof. If anything does go wrong its easy and CHEAP to fix. Belive me that Z will not be as reliable as you think. PASS. My buddy bought one, a big heap of junk. Go for the fox, plus day in day out the fox will feel faster because it has such a fat low end.

Hope you have lots of $$$$. Ask him to look under the hood. The engine bay is so confined and crowded! You wouldn't believe what it would take to correct a very small problem, you have to pratically take the engine apart! Hope you won't have to change the radiator ... It's a nice car but a major headache to work on! 18? Still in school? Keep the STANG!

they are very sexy cars though, and can be made very fast for cheap

I would love to have one but they seem to sell for alot of money around here

False. My buddy has one of those. The TTs are fun, til some phantom starts giving you problems. American Muscle

I agree i would not want to work on one but i looked up a few specs on the TT 300Z. They were rated at 300hp and 283 lbs tqe. I read a few of the 1/4 mile times and it seems in stock form they were between 13.70 and 13.90 in 1/4 mle. Wouldnt take much for a stock fox to see those times.
