[SLOW 97]

If you must have a '99 up go with an '01 or '02 because mod wise they have just as many parts as the 99/00 models except the 01/02 have the smoked headlamps, the 35th Anniversary body parts, and the interior has a few upgrades. I personally would get a 96-98 Cobra though becuase they are pretty fast stock, they look cool, and all you need to run 11's is a blower. But when buying a used stang you're going to pay more for interest as opposed to new. I'am paying 10.9% APR on my 'stang (Getting Re-Financed Soon) which really sucks. You can't really go wrong with any of the cars. I drove a 4V Cobra the other day and those things run like a raped ape and the 4V is definitely a cool engine.
