Default Re: Why would a 4cyl mustang be a bad idea?

The first car i bought was a 4 cylinder mustang and it was alright. I currently have an '85 LX t-top 2.3L auto and it's funner to drive than my other two cars because it doesn't attract unwanted attention (cops), it's more practical in the winter and i get more sun in the summer, gets better gas mileage and is cheap to fix, plus with "pony" wheels the thing looks pretty decent.
Getting a 4 cyl. mustang and making it look nice, or even driving it stock is a good decision and you'll like it. My only modification advise to anyone with a four banger is INSTALL A REAR SWAY BAR (from a GT or 5.0L LX), it makes the car handle 10x better and makes it feel alot sportier.
