Default New car suggestions

If everything works out my cobra will be gone by the end of this week. =/

I need opinions on what I should replace it with

A. Salvage title 03 from a friend who owns a restoration shop and repaired it as his personal car. It is IMMACULATE. I'll only pay like 15k, has full bolt ons. DSG coupe

B. Build a drag/weekend car, 99-04 body.

C. V8 into miata/240sx

D. GSXR1000

E. Save money, buy a c5 vette or something

Also post why you think that.

OP this is the stupidest thing/idea I have seen someone do in a longtime, but hey its your life. Now on to you question I would choose either.......

D or E. Only E if you are going to get into Auto X or Road Courses.

I might just replace it with a non white non vert. If I'm gonna have one I want exactly what I want.

Definitely check with your insurance company first...most wont cover a salvage title.

B. Build a drag/weekend car, 99-04 body.

This could definitely be fun, I like this option!

C. V8 into miata/240sx

Blasphemy^^ lol

D. GSXR1000

Fast,...but it's fast stock, more fun to mod a car!

E. Save money, buy a c5 vette or something

Only if you mod it after you buy it...

Also post why you think that.
IMO i would go for the option B. Seems the most practical and fun for the money.

Any idea if a bank will lend on a car with a salvage/rebuilt title? I kinda want a cobra coupe.

yeah 3rd mustang. I keep getting cars im not quite content with. This one is my favorite so far, but not fast enough, and I don't want a vert or a white car. its pending sale for a profit right now so im not throwing money away or anything.

98-02 maros are ugly.. the only F-body I'd drive is a T/A with WS6 package.

I might just save up until I can afford something nicer or until I find an amazing deal on a great car.

Save up then and get a WS6 TA when money allows. Can't go wrong with that car!
