I stopped by Rick Case Acura (where I am now drinking his capuccino and using his computer).

He has this gorgeous (if that's your thing) black 2003 Mustang SVT, 6 speed, with only 8k miles on it. They are asking $25k.

The girl traded it in on a new TL-S. (Moving up in the world )

It's a creampuff.

Hmm. I could probably trade straight up for my TL with 12k miles. Naw.

5 yrs old car with only 8k miles??? something is fishy.

agranado

el oh el. Good price if the mileage is accurate... How've you been man?

New mustangs are too sexy to ever spend a penny on last gen, especially 25K (price of a new GT).

Cars not worth having if one doesn't like the way it looks IMO, and I personally don't care for the last gen.

Last gen mustang looks 50x better than the current ugly boat...

Is the 03 N/A?

GreenMonster

I was about to say the same thing about XP's car... 4 years old and onbly 12k, something's fishy

Heck, I drive 12K miles every years... and that's low for most people...

iTimmy

It was probably a second car for the person, reserved for nice weekends. One of my best friends has a 00 Lightning with 13k miles on it, its his baby, wouldn't be my choice of a weekend vehicle but he loves it so that's all that matters.

Sarlacc

not only are you a tard, you have no taste.

FiveLiterCheater

Taste has nothing to do with it....Especially when talking about Mustangs.

I've seen that car for sale. I was there during the week to pickup some parts. It does look good.
My grandma has a yellow 2002 V6 auto. The thing is really slow, but hasn't had a problem.
It's got 25K miles on it. So 8K is not unheard of down here.
I would not trade an Acura for even a SVT. The fact is the last gen mustang was just a brute force bare bones straight line fast car. The Acura has so much more going for it.

I do like the new body style though. And I would get a GT in white on black only. I have looked at them, & specifically I would get the CS edition.

Good. Traveling a lot.

Time for another meet.

Nicky sold his Stang j/k

For once, I can respond to a Water-S post with "thats what I was about to say"



You are mistaken........

I would rather have a mint 03-04 Cobra over ANY new Acura assuming either was free. Hell if they rolled a brand new out of the factory right now I would fight someone over it. Any new Acura.... meh.

SVTs are more purpose-built than the regular models. The SVT Cobra especially is far, far from a "brute force bare bones straight line fast car" although calling it a brute force fast car would be pretty accurate. An SVT Cobra would probably destroy anything short of an NSX-R in a straight line or a road course.

you seriously think the top looks better than the bottom?

I've driven & road in mustangs. While they were fast, they were loud with a ton of road noise. Droning mufflers at HW speeds & no luxury features. It's just a different class of car then an Acura.

billlikessuger

Yeah man, 2003 and 2004 Cobra's are NA

Ride in a 03-04 Cobra and it will change your mind.... better yet, drive one and you'll be surprised at the handling. Chances are that those Mustangs had aftermarkets exhaust systems.... another guess here, Flowmasters? Cobras have leather seats with suede inserts and adjustable bolsters, factory system doesn't drone. I have Flowmasters on my Z28 (came on the car) and they drone like hell on the freeway. I will agree that they are an entirely different class of car than Acura is though.

Both of us are a different demographic though... personally I went from a daily driving an 03 TL-S to owning an 02 Camaro Z28 and I never looked back.

Costco

03-04 Cobras are supercharged, Ford claims 390 hp, 390 lb/ft stock but dynos show that was underrated.

Sarlacc

Like I was saying, it has to do with taste of which you have none.

I had something funny happen to me a local ford dealer last summer. We had just picked up Coconut Point Ford. (for on sight minor paint and body work) One of the salesman had a semi new 07 foose edition mustang. He walked up to me and my coworker and asked us if we wanted to buy his "custom" painted mustang for $55k!!!. We (my coworker and I) both laughed in his face. My coworker said "um that's not custom paint, they come from the factory like that. As you can see there are 4 BRAND NEW foose mustangs being offloaded right now, and they are only $25-26k new according to the sticker." All four of them had the same paint job the salesman's car has, just different colors. He then walked away with his head down. I mean the stupidity of some people is just amazing. To think you can pull off something like to PAINTERS is so ridiculous, it's funny.
Sorry for the , but your story just made me think of it.

evilone

this guy is a close runner up to Water-s as the forum e-tard

FiveLiterCheater

Lol right, go to a Mustang forum and post up the same comparison, lets see what it gets you.

Sarlacc

Yes, because I really care what a mustang forum thinks.

You sure youre not water-s' long lost idiot brother?

FiveLiterCheater

Well you should care, because they're Mustang enthusiests, and most of them know a shit load more about that car and its history than you. There have been so many bashings on the new styling, calling it a sell out move on Fords part, to a fucked up reincarnation of a classic. You should write to some of the magazines that had negative comments about its styling as well, Mr.e-tough guy.

stogie1020

XPditor, you buy that car and you will also have to conspire with a bunch of cops in NJ to pwn some cell phone thief who lives with his mom....


Just warning you...

Sarlacc

Again, what the fuck do I care what they think? I think the ford mustang has looked like shit since 1974. It wasn't until this latest generation where they made a design that evoked any kind of real emotion or muscle.

But since you seem to care so much about what all those pony car lovers think why don't you go back over there. I'm sure they could use someone new to be the cookie in the center of their circle jerk.

evilone

see my post 2 up from this post.. great minds think alike

FiveLiterCheater

Lol, ouch, looks like i struck a nerve.

People have opinions, get over it.

...Or one thinks of something slightly clever and the other is too unoriginal and incorporates it into his reply

Costco

This just got interesting

I'm thinking Sarlacc got his name for a reason.... fall into a ditch and you're screwed, try to get out and you'll get just screwed more. And that smiley totally made me think you were water-S

Sarlacc

Says the moron who is trying to get me to change my opinion based on what a bunch of dudes with mullets think.

gdubb

I would rather have an 03/04 Cobra than a 05/up s197........I like both both something about the cobras just do it for me...Hopefully I can have one soon

Xpditor

You guys who are crapping up my thread with personal attacks need to cool it.

You kids play nice. Don't make me stop this car.

Costco

And for the record I think both the 4th and 5th generation Mustangs look great, but the "New Edge" facelift of the 4th gen looks way better than the 1994 SN95. The 2001 Cobra front looks better than the 03-04 Cobra front, to me. The 5th generation is the best looking one yet though, loved the 69-70 Boss Mustangs.

Still, I would rather have an 03-04 Cobra, but an 05+ GT would be a better daily driver. They finally changed the interior after like 10 years.

FiveLiterCheater

Bro, i'm not trying to get you to change your mind. I mean it doesn't matter which one looks better, i doubt being a camera-man at 28 will get you that 06' anytime soon

Sarlacc

The convo is still running on topic, so I wouldnt say its crapped up just yet.

EDIT: looks like I spoke too soon.

Sarlacc

You still have no fucking clue what you're talking about.

The top car can make 600+ rwhp with a bolt on aftermarket blower (Whipple)

I always liked the late 3G and early 4G Mustangs. The 5G is hot.
