Default Which Mustang to Buy ???

Hi,

Im moving over to Dallas from Ireland and I need lots + lots of advice.

Basicially, My wife is allowing me to buy a Mustang as soon as we arive,
but which should I buy?

Mustangs were never avaible in Europe, so I imported a 1987 GT t-top a few years ago which has served me well.

However, now that I'm "emigrating to the states" I want to get the best all-round Mustang that I can.

I would like to get the 1999-2004 shaped model,but something more than a GT.

So, which is better................SVT Cobra or a Saleen or a Rouch ect?

Whats the benefit of a Saleen over lets say a SVT Cobra?

I test drove a 2004 SVT Cobra Convertible last year, is their any Mustangs that can top that or do you have to be a millionaire to have a Saleen,Rouch ect?


Thanks,

paul.

you can buy a 99 saleen for around $20k. but not all Saleens are supercharged. i'd go with an 03-04 cobra and spend some more money wisely. a few very minor bolt ons will give you 450hp easily and all for around $28-30k
