might sell the fox...

mustangsoldier · May 31st, 2009, 07:05 PM

i know im going to get all sorts of shit for this post but ive been thinking of some things lately and i might sell the fox and use the money made to use as a down payment on either a s197 or a mach 1. im just at the point that i don't know if i want to throw anymore money at the fox just to keep it running and i kinda want something a little more reliable...

dr.gonzo! · May 31st, 2009, 07:16 PM

Im not a fan of the s197 style. If I bought anything it would be a 99-04 4v with a s/c

^ I likey

mustangsoldier · May 31st, 2009, 07:19 PM

that is pretty damn sexy...

Iwannagofast · May 31st, 2009, 07:20 PM

i dont blame you

grnstang · May 31st, 2009, 07:39 PM

to each his own. i wouldn't get rid of my car, but i'd like to have both a termy and my fox

mustangsoldier · May 31st, 2009, 08:00 PM

yea i would like to not sell my fox but i just keep running into problems and i just don't have that much of a disposable income for it...

White Thunder · May 31st, 2009, 08:42 PM

thats a 2v.....lol jk

how much for it!

86er · May 31st, 2009, 08:55 PM

I would, a mach is a bad ride, plus itsnot 20 yr old technology

nolife · May 31st, 2009, 10:40 PM

A new Mustang is going to cost you a monthly payment AND it will eventually need parts and money as well. Get a $1000-1500 second car (which in this economy can buy a decent DD). A cheap 4cly beater Like an Escort/Cavalier/Neon etc will be cheaper on insurance, the tires will cost less and probably get much better gas mileage, and you won't have a car payment and a lot of extra money in your pocket to put towards your Fox and you'll have two cars

If you're just getting bored with the fox, selling it would make sense.

jtyson8602 · May 31st, 2009, 11:16 PM

too many people get easily disheartened about their foxes. Yes they are old and have problems. If you want something reliable get something newer it might be wise. Its all a matter of whether you like saying you have a mustang or like saying you have a fox. Me, I wouldn't trade the money pit for any other mustang.

93hatch · May 31st, 2009, 11:36 PM

who sells their fox for a mach? oh thats right, people with massive penis's

mustangsoldier · June 1st, 2009, 12:38 AM

no i love my fox to death and i would be sad to sell her but i just don't know if its the right time right now, and yea i know i'll have a car payment and everything else but i can't afford to go down to one car between the wifey and me either...

superbean · June 1st, 2009, 03:48 PM

why do people with foxes sell them for cobra and people with cobra drool over foxes.

I will never understand it.

dr.gonzo! · June 1st, 2009, 05:08 PM

The cobra that whooped my ass bad didn't seem to care lol.

Ever driven an early cobra or mach 1?

Set of 4.30 gears will welcome you to the world of NA modular power.

flattusmaximus78 · June 2nd, 2009, 10:03 AM

A mach 1, 99-01 cobra, and even a good running 96-98 cobra with steep steep gears and full bolt ons can dive into the low 12's on motor.

My buddy has an 01 with an strim on 11psi and that thing is BADDDD

yup.

My 98 went 13.2x with just a set of 4.30 gears, o/r h and flowmasters.

And sounded fucking awesome doing it.
