It appears you have some money to spend (burn). Why not get a used Cobra or even a used vette?

Cant go wrong with a lightning. If you spend all that money on a srt 10 than your just gonna be pissed that most of the lightnings are still beating you. Also srt 10 is very expensive to mod and wont tow anything.

Don from SMS has his "L" up for sale. Low miles (less than 3K I think) and the price is right (26.5) I believe.

Call 'em 543-FAST

I agree.

If you have 25-30K to spend buy a used 03/04 cobra.

L's are relatively easy to mod to a point, and there is plenty of aftermarket support for them though.

Basically, cat-back and intake work. The car has been running like complete shit lately and I don't know why. It bucks when your driving it sometimes and has gotten really slow. Feels like it might need some new spark plugs put in, although it only has 33k miles.

Yesterday I got a Diablo Predator for free and began tuning it. Made a huge difference in the performance. Although there still is the bucking. I think it might be wiser for me to keep the GT and get Stage 2 Porting, valve job, cam, etc. done along with some gears. That should wake it up some more.

Don't really want a Cobra, as it's still a Mustang, I was thinking of getting something different. Vette's are nice as well, I just can't find what I want around here.
