It really depends on what your plans are for the car. If it's just a daily driver and you plan to keep it mostly stock, I'd go for the new 2002. It will be alot more reliable, a bit nicer, and you know how it's be driven (it hasn't). If horsepower is your AIM, I'd suggest the '98 Cobra as the platform, it makes more power as is and is mor cost effective to make fast. Just make sure you don't pick up a car that's been driven hard all it's life or you could be fixing more than you are upgrading.
