96 question

This could be false but i was told that the '96 V6 mustangs were becoming a rarety due to the fact that most have been wrecked or just died, therefore their value has gone up, has anyone else heard of such a thing?

no thats bullshit. single ports resale value are very low

I have a '99 GT and it's resale value was destroyed when the '05s came out. And I doubt the value of V-6s ever goes up much at all.

Heh so im prolly lookin at like 2k blah i want a v8.

Err sorry to keep posting, anyway its too bad cause everywhere i look for v8's they all have at or over 100k miles and people are wanting like 5k+ for them, and thats 95's thru 98's.

Yea, evidently not to these people....

Was just looking at GT's , though i found a couple SVT cobras that look sweet, expensive but i would a=lmost pay some of those prices for one.

Actually that one you brought up, isnt a bad deal at all.

HMM and I have been thinking about $12K for mine.

HMM and I have been thinking about $12K for mine. the cobra? what year is it?

the cobra? what year is it?
2001 Cobra #443 65K miles

Bassani X-pipe
Bassani Catback
Diablosport Predator
Amazon Racing Stage I Air Filter Kit
MGW shifter (red handle)
H&R race springs
2000 Cobra R Bilstein struts
2003 Cobra Bilstein shocks
Steeda 3 point Caster Camber Plates
Kenny Brown Lower Chassis Brace
Kenny Brown Aluminum differential bushings (have but not installed)
Ford GT coil covers

what car would you get if you sold the cobra?

I really want to step up to a car like the E36 M3 and I am currently looking for one. I like that they have everything situated more toward the driver plus it is almost setup out of the box for what I like. The only change I would really need to do would be steel braided brake lines but I may end up doing stuff like exhaust, intake, chip, and maybe a short throw shifter. I may be considering a M roadster since E36 M3s seem to be difficult to find around here that arn't autos, verts, or have less than 80K miles. Plus I never use the back seat anyway and roadsters are fun to have on Texas Hill County roads. I know I said I didn’t want a vert but a 2 seat vert is totally different that a 4 seater.

Now don’t get me wrong the Cobra is a great car but I feel that I have outgrown it. To turn it in to what I am looking for and demand in a car I would have to spend about $10-$14K. Granted it would be a hell of a lot better than the M3 but at that cost its just not worth it. What I am talking about here is everything form coil-overs and a tubular K member with Front Lower Control Arms moving the wheels forward for better weight distribution with a full blow KB IRS to engine work and a T56 not to mention better front seats and no rear seats. Then there is the brake system to work on and that may end up being a nightmare. The Fronts are easy but the rear I’m not to sure about and that is the week point as all Mustangs are equipped with the same rear brakes from the V6 to the 2000 R.

I wonder if the new 05+ mustang rear brakes would work on previous model mustangs with 5 lug wheels.

I'm not sure if they will. For the non IRS SN95 Mustangs the Steeda rear brake upgrade is about the only thing I have seen that gets you biggre brakes in the rear.
