Default Opinions/Advice?

EDIT: Also, how would this '99 hold against an 05+ GT? Or an 03-04 mach 1? Just simple questions looking for simple answers.

If it has the recall done on it you should have no problem beating a stock 05+ GT as long as you can drive.

Cobra looks nice, but a little $$$$ IMO with those kind of miles!

Thank you both for the advice. I'm looking for a '99/'01 (obviously I would prefer the
01 if it's possible) cobra coupe for around 8,000-9,000; what are my chances/how many miles should i expect/etc.

Mach 1>>>>>99-01 Cobra>S197 GT

The Cobra and S197 are much closer then either to the Mach..

Don't cheap out though; pay the extra amount of money now, or pay even more later when the tranny/motor goes.

If you get a 99 make sure it has the recall done on it.

I think the car you showed us will be your best bet for the price unless you want to step down to maybe a 98 cobra?
