I'm not taking it to a track and I don't plan on pushing the car's limits on the street, so it won't make much of a difference. I figure I might as well go for style.

 

^ WIN!!!

Man i want my neighbors dc5 he has a red 5 speed base model but its flawless for reals...needs tires i guess but other than that nothing! I asked him if he wanted to trade and he said "is it a manual? got vtec? ANYTHING REMOTELY WORTHWHILE? ...[i respond]... hx wheels? WTF?! Hell NO i wont trade you!!!" With a big ole smile on his face haha

Ive been on google images though looking at dc5's s2k's and ep3's lately...reeeeally makes me wanna sell my hatch after college and get somethin 1000 times better

 

^ or just keep your hatch as a beater and save up to buy the other lol.

 

Option 5 - Subaru WRX or STi

/story

 

^ also WIN! muahaha so many options

This is a very good point i will be for sure throughout college and probably until I get a house and a good paying job for sure...after that i plan on getting rid of her cause an auto y7 = pooie and id rather not pull a swap since im planing on getting rid of her anyway (unless the motor just happened to die on me for some odd reason ) ha

 

Im with Mitch lol, your gonna keep the mustang and start another thread with new options next week :/ hahaha

 

Meh, your opinion.

I want to, but I know if I get a WRX it'll never be the same as an STi and I'll always regret not getting an STi, and even the 04 STis are still out of my price range. I plan on spending absolutely no more than $13k on the car, preferably as close to $10k as I can. I'm thinking a few years down the line I'll probably start looking towards an '04/'05 STi.

 

Yup, the mustang's going. Possibly this fall. I just got home via flatbed. Leaving a parking lot, my left-hand ball joint decided it'd be a great time to completely separate. At the very least, the car will now need new ball joints, new struts, and probably a new tie rod end, not to mention a new wheel (from the LCA rubbing on the wheel getting the car on/off the flatbed), and that's just what I know of off-hand. That's just a visual inspection without removing the wheel. I'm tired of things breaking on this car.
