Ok guys i am looking at 2 mustangs and not sure which one i will like better? I want to hear from your experences with these cars.

One is a 2000 mustang GT. it has mach 1 chin spoiler, h pipe to 40 series flowmaster exhaust. it has a upper accufab plenium, throttle body and BBK cold air intake system. it just recently got a new set of wheels they are fr500 deep dish rims with 315/35/17 sumotomo tires on the rear with 95% tread and new dunlop 255/40/17 tires on front with 95%. it is a 5 speed with black leather, mach 460 sterio, 86000 easy babied miles. everything is in great shape and works perfectly. maintanaced every 3 thousang.

the other is 1995 GT with the 5.0L and a tremec 3550 5 speed in it. The motor has a lot of work done to it including a trick flow upper/lower intake, trick flow heads, trick flow cam, bbk intake, bbk headers, bbk X pipe, flowmaster mufflers, short throw shifter, NOS 100 shot dry kit, never been sprayed though, also has 4:10's in the rear, frame is tied with bbk frame connectors.

the 00 is 5 years newer and hasnt seen the abuse but you forgot to mention one VERY important thing. whats the price tag like on these 2?

btw, how can you say "easy babied miles". did you ride in the persons car everytime they drove it or is that on "their word"? and how can you say the nitrous has never been sprayed? do you even know these people your buying these cars from?

I'm with him^^

Who puts nitrous on their ride and never uses it, even to only make sure it works? Sounds ridiculous. If someone ever told me that I'd just walk away. As they're probably lying about alot more as well.

As far as easily babied 86,000 miles? c'mon. A mustang with 86k and mods has been beaten on somewhat. It's not like we're talking about an old ladies grocery getter.

Either way....Whats the $$$?

..I'd pic the vert. Oh wait, neither one is... pass

If a car's been modded then it's been rodded.. People might put on body kits & tires/rims just for cool looks, but noone mods an engine & then babies it.. get it CHECKED!!

And yeah what's the $ of those 2?

Not for sure if these cars you're looking at are private owners or dealers. You can best beleive that if it's a private owner and if he owns the 95 he's going probally ask for a preety hefty penny (He will want to re-coup some of the money that he's put in the car). Also 86,000 miles is not that bad for a 10 year old car but I thought they were all babied.. Its your decision to make but if it were me, I would go with the 2000.

Yeah man that makes no sense (nitrous has never been sprayed)... Hopefully the OP chooses wisely. Don't get me wrong the 95 sounds like a SOB but it is 15 years old and running nitrous.

Ok guys thanks for all the posts. Im not sure how many mile are on the 95..? I am meeting with him this weekend. They are both private owners.

I talked to the guy with the 95 alot in the last few days. (dont know if hes lying or telling the truth).. But he said that he bought the car with all the mods done to it. Im not sure if the nitrous have ever been hooked up or not.. I dont know.. He is asking 6,500. I looked on kelly blue book and they said a mint one with around 100,xxx miles is 4,790.. But if the paint and interior is only in ok shape that might make it 3,800? Not sure but im figuring its not perfect.

The 2000 I havent talked to him a hole lot.. But as of right now im not sure if he wants to deal. He wants 8,500.
