The cobra would be a good rig to play with during all those runs in mexico the bay area has too.
Im 26 years old, currently working full time. Living in the bay area, Im not looking at being able to afford a house around here anytime soon. Right now I pay rent which is very affordable, no credit card bills, everything I do own is paid off.
I thought about getting more of a daily driver that is better on gas, but then Im worried something I get might break down and I would want something id enjoy driving also so that would mean more money(maybe a wrx). My friend bought a maxima as a daily driver so he could start working on his 67 mustang. Now, both cars are down. I don't want that to happen either.
The cobra I'm looking at has a few things done already. It has full bassani exhaust, FR deep dish wheels, HR lowering springs, tri-ax shifter and a canton overflow tank. It has enough power as it sits and looks/sounds mean, so I wouldn't be looking to mod for awhile, maybe down the road.
the fox will be a bottomless pit of money, that will not hold any value, and the 03/04 cobra will hold its value well and be stupid fast with bolt ons
<snip> I faced a similar question back in the day and I'm very happy with my decision to buy a 1997 Corvette in 2006 that I still own today. I took a loan for $19k that I paid off in a year. I've been very happy with having a car that's never left me stranded, and has always been fun to drive. At the time, it was a very strong urge to have a newer, nicer looking, every day car that I wouldn't worry about when I took a girl out, etc...
I still get pm's and emails asking me how someone so pretty can know so much about cars
I actually had to remove my email address from here to stop it
I think you could save a boat load of money if you got a 4.6 or 5.4 dohc motor and dropped in the fox and just bought a cheap daily driver. tis an option but if you love the terminator and can afford it get it. I just think a sleeper fox would be so sick. Guess it all depends in the time and money you got going on . . . .
