Smile G'day

Hi

Ok, I'm not a Mustang owner yet but I will be.

I'm from down south, way down south, Australia in fact. My current ride is an aussie Ford Falcon (think Taurus as far as size goes) powered by the 295hp 5.4L 3 valve V8 out of the F-series.

I'm in the market for a Fox body Mustang and thats why I'm on here. We dont have anything like them here; only our family sedans, wagons and utes come V8 equiped and I'm after something smaller and more nimble.

Cheers

Welcome, you should buy a 2002 mustang cobra, they only made them in Australia and i think only about 100 were made, im willing to bet you would be the only one on the forums with one

Thanks everyone.

SVYeeshirt; the '02 Cobra wasnt actually made here, just factory converted to RHD and had a few modifications to make it comply with our ADRs (Australian Design Rules). Weren't they sold there as well?
Problem is they still fetch a high price even now, around the $50G mark (about $40G US). Plus I'm after a fox, it's small, light and something very different for us over here. But the Cobra would be nice, and they're very quick!
