Default 86 5.0's, where'd they go?

Somenone on craigs list is selling a 86GT, low miles, unmodified, orig. paint w/ decals, and interior looks very clean, for $4500. Also found a 89 notch, 1 owner, unmodifed for 5K. As you all know good stangs are not always available, I look at ones for sale all the time to see whats out there and there are some good ones in AZ right now.My next stang will definately be a 86 GT, older look + fuel injection. What your next stang you want?

Its hard to sell the car you love to get another, but then it pretty hard to save up 2-5K for a second one. Also, I think what I could do to my stang, dropping 3k or so into it.

Oh yea, why does texas have alot of the 93 cobras. I went on autotrader a couple years ago, there were like 7 Cobras in TX. I have seen 2 93 cobras for sale in AZ in 2 years, wtf!!!

I'll never sell my fox, this is my first car ever and I plan on doing a full out restoration once im into my career.

My dad bought it for me when I was 16 (18 now) so its really special to me.

As for the '86 GT's, I still see hella of them around, I live in the Bay Area.

I'm trying to sell my fox to get a sn95. Lots of people interested in my car, but I haven't seen too many decent sn95's at a decent price.
