Thinking about trading - Original Pony Car

BLACKCOBRA · 07-30-2009, 09:37 AM

Thinking about trading or selling my 99 Cobra for a clean original 89 - 93 5.0 5 speed car. Know anyone looking for a cobra or that has a super clean fox and some cash?

I think you'll end up regretting it. I miss my old Fox, but even my 95 is a huge improvement. I don't miss every squeak and rattle, that's for sure. There was even more continued refinement over the years with the suspension, too (bushings, spindles, and front control arms). Plus, the sound of a 4.6 4V is, IMO just as good as a 5.0, but in a different way that's better.

I think the only thing i would really miss is the newer interior. Just something im thinking about. iv had my car for almost 6 years. i still love it every time i drive it. its a badass ride that gets tons of looks and sounds very wicked. I Just am running out of stuff to do without sinking large ammounts of money into heads and cams for a small ammount of power. I donno Just thinking about something different.
