So for the last like year i have been going back and forth between keeping my sixxer and getting a GT. I have a winter car so i wouldn't have to drive in the snow, the main factor is insurance and finding the right car haha. So while growing craigslist i came across this http://rideautosale.com/viewcar.php?idnot=2291 I think i might go look at it this weekend. Just looking for a second opinion on getting a GT and the actual car.
Also sonicx don't be mad at me for thinking about get a GT again haha

If you thought I was ever mad over any Mustang Forum (we've discussed this in), you interpreted my message wrong. As I've never been mad. My only words of wisdom were to keep what you had. Because at the time you had only 6 or 7K to look at a new edge GT. What I suggested was for you to hold out until you had at low/mid teens saved up and checked into a MACH 1, Cobra, or even a downpayment on a new car. That's be soo worth it :)

haha no man i know you weren't mad, i was just joking because i have gone back and forth like 5 times on this and every time you have had to listen to my bitching and moaning! and I value your opinion more than anyones haha!

The warranty is a good think too. Plus it looks sharp with the cobra bumper.

Love the cobra front bumper. Would recommend if your going with an 99-04 maybe get a mach 1 mainly because they are easier to mod. But a v-8 of any kind will be an upgrade. Just remember to take your time and one will come. Shopping for a new car can be very frustrating. Good luck

Thanks! yeah I've always wanted a V8 with a 5 speed haha, and anything will be an improvement on my auto v6. And +1 on the frustrating. and my tentative plan is to not mod the car, but we all know that that won't happen

What was the scoop? Or are you still looking? I was out today test driving a new mustang... I got wowd. I don't think I'd ever get an older mustang (excluding the classics). These new mustang just are amazing inside and out.
