Default Thinking of buying a car, need opinions!

I recently sold my old car and I have some money to buy an other mustang.

but which style should I buy?

I am not mechanically inclined and I do not want a project car.

I really like foxbodies and I really like the later model special edition mustang cobra, roush, saleen, mach 1.

I would really like to know what you guys think.

If you had about 15,000 what would you buy?

My '66.........lol

You need to decide which style you like most. I would aim towards a stock 03/04 Mach 1 if it was my money.....there are some deals if you search around.

Do you want a V8 GT or a 6'er? Do you want top-of-the-line or a more basic car?
For the same amount of money you can buy either a newer basic car or an older fully loaded one..

15 cash or loan? if cash then a fox body or a cheap newedge unless i could find a termi for 15k (which you likely wont unless its got **** wrong with it). no way i'd buy a mach1 or a normal cobra that leaves you almost no cash afterward.

say 5000$ for a pretty decent condition new edge or a nice fox, and 10,000$ in go fast parts.

I'm guessing you dno't want a v6 Stang.

You can easily get a Mach 1 with that money. Or a 2005-2006 GT. I've seen 05-06 GT's going for 11-13K around where I live with low mileage.

Or you could get a New Edge GT for like 7K with low mileage and slap a blower on it and with 10K, you could easily have a Mustang with 400rwhp.
