[@joshuakhaos4451]

They were either modified or beat to hell when I was in high school during the late 2000s, The good condition ones were either stock, well cared for or modified and ran about 4-10k depending on variables(Like Mods). But if they were beat like most, they were about 850-1500. If you got one that was not falling apart and still had a bit of life in it, that ran you about 2-4. But those were still hard to find just due to the modding scene that was already there. So good ones were not something us teenagers could get really. The 93's-99's were what we had at my school. As well as 4th Gen Camaros and Trans Ams of the same era. Only one kid had a 2002 WS6 Trans am.

[@dleetr]

Well they'd run out of content pretty quickly wouldn't they and they're stuck with the series title and slogan. That said, it's a nicely packaged short look at some cars you don't always see, what's the problem? My only complaint was that this one wasn't in-depth enough.

[@vomErsten]

I would say that most of the cars featured on this spot, while no longer sleeper bargains, are still in the "attainable" range and with non-trivial future growth potential. Even that comparison of the F355 to the 360 doesn't make me raise an eyebrow, because the former is still growing in value strongly with relative bargains to be had if you're willing to import one from Europe and the latter is still hella slept on at its current price point.

If memory serves I remember it had a sticker price of $56,000 and some change... I went there in February because Bleakley Ford was the last dealership in the south that still had a new 1993 Cobra that was unsold... I waited to see what the 1994 was going to look like in person & I was very disappointed so I tracked down the cobra and someone stole the ashtray out of it so my salesmen Nick Rainwater goes over to the SA/10 pockets the ashtray and puts it in my cobra... If anybody out there purchased an SA/10 from John Bleakley Ford without an ashtray I have your ashtray... Lol ( In comparison my cobra had every option except for the sunroof and the chrome plated rims and it was $21,970. The 1993 Cobra R was $25,000 and that SA/10 was $56,000 )

Awesome video, I own 89’-152 All white exterior paint, white top with smoke gray ford leather interior, at the moment is sitting at 38k miles on it, what special about this one, when I bought it (years ago and that an interesting story by itself) I noticed there was no decals, no stripes, no badge number up front, no decals on the sides or rear. I called Saleen to see what what color decals it came with, after a long talk with them. They told me good and bad news. They asked for pictures of the car (in and out) and vin number. The vin number didn’t match their documents recorded. One number was wrong. I have all of the paperwork from the day it was sold including the temporary tags to drive it. Long story short, Saleen wrote done the Vin number wrong and they admitted it and send me a letter and new tags. This is like a typo (you have dollar with a misprint, it’s worth more) after this was done, they asked me what was my question, I asked about the decals, that there isn’t any on the car. They told me that this particular car that I own was a factory decal delete car. Confused I asked what’s does that mean, they said if I were to get all the Foxbody Saleen Mustang convertibles 87-93 (which weren’t many to begin with) the car I have will be one of one. Being a one of one, with their mistake on documentation, a letter with tags to prove this, and being a convertible, I think I own something pretty more than rare, and love driving it on sunny days

[@irritablearchitect]

In the day, the Fox was the modern hot rod; a good, basic starting point for modifying a car for performance, and the way you wanted it. It was inexpensive and had a really great, reliable and powerful engine that took modifications well, from electronics (EEC-IV was open source from Ford) to hard parts. It could be made to handle well too, with a host of brake and suspension suppliers who started a cottage industry around that car. 30 years on and nothing has changed; the cars are still available and inexpensive, and the SBF is still alive and even thriving, with an even greater availability, and better flowing, cylinder heads than we had back then.

I will say from experience that newer Saleen Mustangs are put together rather poorly. I worked at an authorized Saleen/Roush Ford dealership and can say that the body kits were slapped together lazily and had bad bondo filling in small areas with shoddy paint in some areas. They weren’t the worst job. They were amateur for a company that charges the money they do for their cars. Luckily we didn’t see many problems with the mechanical sides of their builds.

@@2344tommaselli it's still on the fox platform I know it's not a "fox body" but the s95s and New edge are all foxes. I remember being so frustrated that Ford never made the 5.8 an option on the mustang. The Camaros of the day and the 5.0 tpi or the 5.7 tpi. If Ford had put the 5.8 in the fox platform with like GT40 heads and some headers that would have been more than a match for an IROC Camaro. did not know that it was a vortex supercharger though. Still a centrifugal supercharger setup. I could probably Google it just as easy but did that have the boargwarner t5 or t45?

Have all those made for ditch cars you want. My grandma said her old Buick will still roll them up and smoke them like a philly blunt on a saturday night here in the 2020's, and with a 455 triple carburetor Big Block, i agree with her, i seen her do it on the drag strip. roflmao
