hey whats up guys, ive been looking for new cars and so far the only one that peak my intrest in my price range (around 8-9k) is the 99-04 mustang GT. now i know some of you will say o get a camaro but to be honest I hate the interior on the 98+ Z28's and after coming from a BMW the GT much more suits my needs in that department.
so what can someone tell me some stuff on them or direct me to some good sites?
if you can give me some other options on some other cars that are in this range that be great too... and yes i know about GTP's lol
Have you checked out the interior on trans am's? I think they have a better interior than the camaros.
The 99+ stangs have nice interiors. I just don't like were the shifter is placed...
yeah the trans am's interior is slightly better but there very hard to find around here but the mustangs still out does them both in that reguard. Yes I agree the shifter placement is kinda sucky but livable

man wish i could find a deal like that, the bimmer got rearended and totaled
and yes i know a 99-04 mustang would get smoked by a LS1 camaro
No Trans-Ams huh??
I personally think all Mustang interiors are digusting

Just to name a few. I think you will love the stang! I had a 95 Mustang Gt vert 5spd (gave it to my pops) and I had a blast in it. You can do so much with those cars. If you can... I would try to get an older SVT mustang. Keep you eyes out there for good deals. One bad part about buying used stangs is that the sellers think they are made of gold and wont work on price with ya. Good luck and stick to your guns!!!

thanks for all the input guys, im actualy going to go look at a black 99 GTP tomorrow, im still not sure how much im getting for my car, the dude sent me a thing saying they only wanna give me $7300+ taxes for my car and thats BS my car is booked at 8-9.2k for the condition its in. luckly i have an uncle who is like the head of all the adjustment companys in RI and he gave him a call today and there gonna readjust it but im think im still only gonna get maybe like 8k+ taxes even though i paid taxes on $8.8k 4 months ago ... so much fustration... anyways i cant seem to find a decent 99+ Gt or 98+z28/TA for that price... im looking for decent milage something under like 90k and something where the car isnt Gold or Green haha

i love it when people say that
and, it's not just LS1's. stock stangs are just slow
i would, however, be willing to excuse you if you purchased an '03 '04 cobra. those are just sick

what do you guys think of this car should i stear clear of it? or does it look like a good deal. talked to the guy tonight and im gonna check it out tomorrow. man 4 hours of searching for cars today and nothing worth my while, so fustrating
also the gtp today was junk
slow as balls and some external damage, not as nice as some other the other i have driven.
^I think the dude blew the motor "chucking too many revs at hondas" lol
It sounds like it's been beat, and the seats and hood are gross. If you could talk him down it might be worth a shot....
yeah thats what it sounds like to me too lol.. im debating wether or not to go look at it...its not really my style anyways what he did to it ugg yellow seats gross lol
this gtp looks like a good price lol

what do you guys think
That GTP may have a good price but when the guy says it runs great and then puts this further on in the ad:
"...Sun roof doesn't work. Supercharger is making a rattling noise. Exhaust leak..."
I dont know bout you but it would kinda make me think twice. its up to you though. Good luck on the car shopping!
well think if its just and exhaust leak and a burnt supercharger then thats only a few hundred for me to fix the sunroof working or not doesnt bother me but i could fix that as well .. but does sound like alots been wrong with it lol

Take your time. Dont rush into a bad decision. It took me 6 months to find my Mustang and boy did I look at P.O.S before I found my gem! Remember good things come to those who wait.
"Remember do what you like because you have to drive it."--Me
the "supercharger rattling" is the coupler goin out. a new blower would cost you $300+. get a new coupler, $35+ 2 hrs labor for yourself. all better.
exhaust leak... they need new exhaust anyway, perticularly downpipe and u-bend delete.
now, the part that worries me is the rebuild tranny and new head gasket. yeah, they've been replaced, but those dont usually go out by now unless you beat the crap out of the cars. especially the head gasket. and the price is way way way low. kinda worries me a little too. keep lookin if you want a GTP or a stang. your car's out there, you've just gotta wait till you find it.
