Default should i buy it?

coworker is selling her 85 stang. 300+ hp, nice condition. manual transmission, no ac. wants roughly 3000 for it. not a bad price, imo. not for that engine in extremely good condition. hatchback, btw

i was contemplating buying a ssei to swap some stuff with, but now that this is an option, im questioning.

this is exactly the car i wanted growing up, with the exception of the color.

Exactly the car you wanted growing up...I am not a ford fan, but heck, why not? The car I wanted in HS was a 1988 Iroc-Z. Still have never had one. If I found one and had the cash, I would probably be all over it, assuming there wasnt another use for the $$$.

Can you get that and still have a Bonne?

If that is the car you've always wanted, then go for it. You'll regret it if you don't

5 spd would be fun. You've got a bonneville, why not something right wheel drive and choose your own gear.

While I am not a ford fan, that is my only reason for dismissing it.

Yes, young jedi. Feel the power of the dark side. You can't resist. It will make you stronger. Feel it flowing through you!
