Bump - Price reduced to $8,000 or best offer :)

I understand that i'm not going to get 7,000 mpg, but I have been driving mustangs for about 5 years and think I want something with 4 doors and less noise. One day I'll get another one, but probably as a second car. And being a poor college student, it makes a noticeable difference when you...

that's tempting because they have nice interiors and are supposed to drive nice, but i've only ever heard nightmares about late-model VW reliability and repair costs. anyone have first-hand experience with a 2000s golf or jetta?

i was thinking about a ranger, but i'd want a 4 cyl. extended cab and those are hard to find it seems. stangman11 - i like just about all of those. however i don't think i can ever get a zx2. i remember reading reviews when they first came out that were pretty positive. then in high school...

i would like a 240 but they are impossible to find with less than 8 billion miles on the clock. i don't know why, but it seems like used nissans have more miles than the average used car. 240's, sentras, altimas, maximas, whatever. most of the ones i come across have well over 100k, and i'm...

So i'm having to sell my 96 cobra due to school commuting/being a poor college student. It's over in the classifieds if you want to give it a look. Now i need something fairly cheap and easy on gas. I'm thinking a sentra or protege or something along those lines, but really it's hard to make...

Selling my white 1996 Cobra. The interior is black and saddle tan leather which is in good shape for the age. She just rolled over 65,000 miles. Here are the details: - Original wheels with tires and real Ford 1995 Cobra R wheels (17x9) with new Nitto NT555 tires 255/45/17. The Nittos come...

in my experience the fuel gauge doesn't read so linear. the first quarter will seem to last forever, then the second and third quarters go by faster, then the last quarter lasts longer. it's like a bell curve. props on the 248a btw :nice:

hahaha. i think you made the right choice man. terminators are BA, and i like the IRS, but the interior and build quality of the S197 wins.

i haven't had this trouble with a cobra, but i did have a 1999 GT that did the same thing. in that case it was the IAC (Idle Air Control) valve. basically it was fouled and when i would put the clutch in to slow down, the car would stall because the IAC would stick closed. To fix it you...

Interior Upgrade Package, it is an option on the S197 (05+) mustangs.

forgot about those too. there are many differences between 4 valve motors depending on the year as well. for example, the terminator cobras (03-04) were iron block, whereas the 96-01 cobras and 03-04 mach 1's were aluminum. i'd go with a mach if i could afford one :flag:

forgot the 05+ engines. like DBMSTNG said, they are a 3 valve design with 300 HP from the factory.

96-98 GT = Non-PI 2 valve engine (215-225 HP, heads don't flow very well, upgrading to the "PI" heads and intake from 99-04 common) 99-04 GT = PI 2 valve engine (260 HP) 96-04 Cobra = 4 valve engine (96-98=305, 99&01=320, 03&04=390) I've had a 99 PI engine and a 96 NPI engine. the...

i know some cars sit, but i worked at a dealership and not much sits for 16 months. i don't think it's common for a cobra to sit for that long, but maybe i am reading too much into it. then again, i had a 99 GT that had a clean carfax that i am sure was hit hard in the front. ahh!! i hate...

"you may not have noticed, but we have buttocks for faces"

my 96 GT was totaled when i was rear-ended a few weeks ago :( now i am looking for a new stang. well a friend of my dad is selling his 96 cobra, so i went and took a look. it drove nice, and seemed to be in great shape overall with only 57,XXX miles. it was a respray with a little...

the point of the GTS/248A package was to produce a cheap V8 mustang, a la the LX 5.0 fox. getting rid of a/c and power locks and windows is a way to save cost moreso than weight. i have a '96 248A, and it was optioned from the factory with a/c, power locks and windows, and ABS. it's...

Finally got my picture from the Mustangs and Mustangs show at Fantasy of Flight. Maybe I should have rolled the window up :rolleyes:

:rolleyes: wow, calm down man. nice seat SRT, what did it cost?
