I maybe buying a 96-97 mustang.........
My next door neighbor has a very clean 96-97 mustang with about 90K miles on it. I would be interested in just buying the car for daily driving. Its an automatic thats the only bad thing, but heck if i am stuck in traffic i dont have to worry about pushing the clutch in. Any pros and cons on this model mustang. My neighbor wants 4500 but i could probably get it for 4k or less. This would be my first mod motor and I have no plans of racing it , just put a good exh. system on it and some cobra R's.
thanks |
nothing really to look out for, they are fun cars. I like they Vert in those years better than any other mustang vert. the only thing to look for is a leaking intake that has a recall. If this one does not work out I will have a 98 GT Vert for sale very soon.
BTW for my taste, X pipe and non-flows are the way to go on a mod car |

Yeah that plastic intakes cracking was about the only problem with them. That sounds like a good price for it to.

good lookin cruiser....'cept mines a pushrod with '96 taillights..

Yeah the intake thing was the biggest problem.
Well, other than them being one of the slowest. They were non-PI cars so they were very weak. I think it was the 98's maybe that had the PI intake and better performance. |
PI started in 99
the 98s were ~10 hp more than the 96, I think due to tune |
96-97 came with a whooping 215hp which came to 189 at the wheels.98 had a increase to 225hp for the wild at heart.....
