I need advice


Well I have a chance to get a 95 convertible, but its auto.... I just want a fast car I went from having a souped up prelude and now trying to get a mustang. Is this car going to be able to blow by the hondas and integras i see on the roads? Also I have a chance to get a 00 gt but also auto. I love just sitting back and getting power which one is a better car? Thanks Guys!!

the 00 is the better car stock for stock but the 5.0 has more of an aftermarket for it and it's easier to make the 5.0 faster

If i was you id go with the 00 gt if your lookin for a more reliable daily driver. The aftermarket shit will be a little bit more expensive than the shit for the 95 though. Any way you go just throw an HCI on it and you will spank every ricer on the block.

The 95 is not ideal because its a convertible, however the aftermarkt scene for 5.0 is amazing. The 00 is not ideal because they are not real fast stock and the aftermarket scene is kind of expensive and not super big yet. Thats a tough call. I would drive both cars and see which one you like driving better. Both have ups and downs.

the 00 is a faster car stock than a stock 95 vert

Stock yes. The 95 could be much faster for less $$$ though. Plus the vert would be cool for cruising probably. Like I said, drive both cars. See which one drives better to you and suits you better.

If you are used to faster cars, neither of these are going to be good candidates, the 95 vert will be slow because it is heavy and automatic, the 00 will be better but still automatic. I would look for a stick foxbody for the street, you can mod the sh#t out of them, they are fast, and it wont break the bank like a modular motor mustang will.
