what mustang

If u were in the market for a stang, what would u go with? I'm thinkin of a V8, convertable, leather, with low mileage. Thinkin of 94-98 style. what do u think. Any problems in those years to be mindful of when checking them out. I don't know? Any ideas, I like the 10-15000 dollar mark.

The '94-'98 are great cars, you could easily find one for what you have to spend. The only problem with those years is they tend to be slower than other models, if you just wanna cruise, go for it, but if you're looking for speed, you'd be better off with another year unless you're ready to do a lot of work. The old "fox" cars are similar for power but much lighter so they're quicker and they're easier to modify and get power from. The "new egde" body style has more power and are decent performers, but will be more expensive. Good luck and welcome to the club!

Welcome. As far as 10-15,000 I would definitely find a Fox over the 94-98. Mind you I fancy the latest style at this time.

Don't forget that the 94/95 models were 5.0s and 96-98s were 4.6s...the slowest of the 4.6s at that.

verts in general from my experience are a pain in the ***, but are awesome in good weather and when everything is in great condition or working order, like the roof motor, windows, rear one especially, latches, etc. i personally dont like 94-98 verts, i like 99-up but they are expensive as previously stated, so IMO get a 94-98 cobra if you can.

Slower then other models HAHAHA "we'll see about that!"



Go with the 94-98 if thats the style you like, get it.....the 87-93 "foxes" are nice but the interiors are ugly.....the sn95's have a sweet interior. But this is up to you good luck.
