Default New guy here looking for advise.

What's up! I'm a new member currently in Afghanistan lookin to buy my first Mustang. I came up in a eclipse as my first car then graduated to an 03 SRT4 then moved on to a gsxr600. Well all are sold now and with a son now the wife says no to another bike. So I've been looking at getting a 99-04 GT. I really love that gen styling and they are also very affordable. I know that can be a double edge sword so I was wondering what to look out for when purchasing. Any advise would be helpful, thanks in advance.

There is a great tech section, check it out. Welcome to the forum. I have to agree, the99-04 is a great body style.

The only stang Id buy from that era is the S/C cobra. the rest are underpowered in my book.

I would love to find a 03-04 Cobra....been my dream car since they were put into production. Trying to keep my budget under 15k. Plus I don't even want to know what the insurance on one is. So prolly go with a gt and put a supercharger on it. I did find a 93 cobra in Hawaii for 5500$!! Wish I could go look at it.
