GT or LX?

srv1 · 09-02-2001, 01:45 PM

of the fox body 79-86 and 87-93, which one do you like the best? my favorite is the 85-86 GT and the LX in the 87-93. i would consider Cobra's on the GT looking side, but they could be seperate too. oh and also SVO's.

1979-1982 Mercury Capri RS
1983-1986 The GT looks way better.
1987-1992 I like the GT better, especially when it comes to the 'verts.
1993 The Cobra.

#4 1982 Capri RS
#3 1985 GT
#2 1991-1992 GT
#1 1993 Cobra

That's about how it breaks down.

Actually, the butt ugly bubble back window on the Capri debuted in the 1983 model year.

1979-1982 were of the same basic hatch style as the stang, I just think it looks better.

That's why I put from 1979-1982btw, after that, the tail end is just too ugly for words.
