[QUOTE="Swine, post: 15515568, member: 142644"] So, I've owned 2 previous Coyote S197 M/T cars. One was a stock 12' base with Brembo's and 3.73's, the other a nicely spec'd 12' premium that eventually had a really nice handling suspension set up with a good wheel and tire and basic bolt on's/tune. I have long been impressed with the S197 chassis in both performance and value. You have an engine that can easily make all the hp most mortals require, do it efficiently and reliably, and it doesn't break the bank to make it happen. The chassis is proven, and the rest of the drive line is typically more then sufficient. On the flip side, mustangs are also a dime a dozen and unfortunately depreciate quickly. That means, sometimes the car doesnt feel as special as it should when you see 3 others at the same stop light, and your cost of ownership is actually quite high when factoring depreciation on a percentage level. For my fun street cars, i prefer efficient lightweight N/A setups over forced induction muscle and tq. Not only is the power much more usable, but cost remains lower and reliability typically remains higher. Enter my 13' SBY Boss 302. Drove down to historic Savannah, Ga and picked it up on River Street. Managed to snag a really pretty shot, had an awesome weekend barhopping with a buddy who i suckered into coming with me, and then of course got acquainted well with the car on the drive home. Oh i got my first "nice car" with 10 min of ownership. That helps :) [ATTACH=full]703683[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
