It'd have to be something that is not going to be having a whole bunch of small shit breaking on you. Honestly, that's the name of the game for old cars unless you keep on top of them. This car has 104K miles on it, been driven hard for what it is and a blown clutch is the best case scenario for something major going wrong. Other than that the only issues I've had are a bad door lock actuator and some weather stripping needed replacing. It's been solid. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah but Shelbys are mad expensive now and for that price, you could buy something way better. Besides, current gen stangs have gotten more power. Even the ecoboost has more power than yours, I believe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The 03 is acceptable. thats still a cool car . More like $14.5K and that's just estimated private party from KBB. I might be able to get close to $20K for the car with the condition it is in if I found the right buyer. 93 Cobras are highly sought after and pretty rare. Motor is still strong and makes 226hp and 282lb-ft at the rear and its underrated. They're rated at 235 and 280... more like ~270 and ~340. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You want a "fun mess around" car that is not going to have a bunch of stuff breaking? And from the 90s? Nope. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'd hope the EcoBoost 4 bangers are more powerful than a 27 year old V8 and much more efficient. The GT500 is expensive as fuck, but I find the GT350s are pretty good value. They start at $59K I think, but this is the last production year for those things. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Shelbys have gotten a whole lotta fucking expensive the moment Carroll passed away. However, only the ones that Carroll had firsthand contact with. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It got real bad when the 2013-2014s came out with the 5.8L SC... those things started at like $65K. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jehurey 3,299 Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 I sure did enjoy driving around in my brother's 95 Corvette back around 2001. I wonder what a relatively good condition 96 Vette would go for. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JonDnD 2,698 Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 I'm not sure yet . I've been saving money for years for a cool car . Will have to test drive , but I'm thinking m2 or cayman s ( with no options lol ) always wanted a 911 but thats still out of reach . Something with a stick for sure. Not much left to choose from. Waiting to get my new house with garage so all depends on how that works out too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JonDnD 2,698 Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 I want to pay cash for the car . Shouldn't loose too much money in a span of 3 years . 370s do nothing for me Quote Link to post Share on other sites
