i'd keep the stang, just because i love cammed up V8's. i have a 96 civic hatch with a ls/vtec in it, it's fun to drive just cuz it screams w/ a 9000rpm redline. but i love getting out the stang cuz of the torque and the V8 sound. i'd keep the stang, save up $, and build a motor for it.

Stang all the way. I would sell the Honda and go nuts with the Pony. Make it a relaible driver for the long term. Buy some cheap commuter in the mean time. Just until you build the stang. Then smack those imports around!

In a world of a weaking U.S. economy, support your fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers, etc. Look for the "Made In U.S.A." Logo. Sheat, I'm selling my hyundai for a Chevy Avalanche just cuz I want to give back to Uncle Sam.

Keep the stang. That's my opinion. Personally, I'd rather have a 200-250 horsepower V8 mustang than a 500-800 horsepower honda. It's the looks and sound that makes people drool or laugh.

anyway to anwser the kids question, take those 800 and buy some 4.10s(auto) or 3.73(5spd) rear end gears

should be around 5-600 total

take the rest and do a tune up

Your on a Mustang forum and you ask us to choose between a Honda or Mustang, I think you know our response before you even posted the Q.

Keep the stang and put work into it, eventually you'll be where you want it to be.
