5.0 Battle: 1992 Ford Mustang GT vs. 1992 Chevrolet Camaro Z28

honestly... it also depends on what you find... most newer cars still are in newer condition, I have a few friends w/ foxes and they all are f*cked up somehow, i mean dents, bad paint, they weren't taken care of unfortunately... so unless you can find one in good condition, go w/ the next gen.

That's what I'm thinking, I'll seriously take whatever I can get for a good price. Just sayin' that I'd prefer a 94 or 95 :T

I agree totally but on the flip-side you can also buy a lot of Foxes that have been upkept, has a lot of mods, a brand new better than factory paint job for the same price as a nice SN-95 car. Like Kman said whatever deal he is able to come across.

Well honestly my first pick would be a Cobra which was only around for one year during the Foxbody style, but I'd be perfectly happy with any LX 5.0 or GT since I'm gonna mod anyways :P

I would not bother with a 93 Cobra they extra you pay for those cars is based on rarity+demand. It's performance above a regular 5.0 can be out matched for a $1,000 or less. And if your going to mod it anyway most of the parts that make it better will be taken off for others I/H/C etc.., So basically what I'm saying is if your gonna mod it a lot the 93 Cobra is a waste of money, if you have the money to burn well then more power to you!

BTW, what does "Sig Kill count: 40 and..." mean?

[kman10587]

Okay, so if I'm doing mods, a GT or LX 5.0 will be better?

It depends on mods and what you ideally want to do with the car and how you want to get there. But I would save ya money on a 93 Cobra, a 95 Cobra is not much more than a 95 GT so in that case it's not as big of a deal.

[kman10587]

What makes the 94/95 Cobra better than the 93 Cobra, besides the updated styling and interior?

[GTStang]

Not better... cheaper!

[kman10587]

Wow, that's odd. A car that's newer but cheaper... :P

if u want a cheap reliable motor that has a huge aftermarket get the 302... the only thing better about the 4.6 is its so much sweeter beatin a 350, adds insult to injury but both the engines are equal in my books as performance, but in terms of dependebility and aftermarket the 302 wins...

and as for the mustang bein more of a chic car... do a little research, the sad fact is the demographics of both mustangs and camaros are 51% female.
