My new ride (warning Stang content)
I sold my "old" 911 a few weeks ago to nice guy from Texas (I am now a Pelican Refugee). Since then I have upgraded to a 2002 Roush Stage 2 Mustang GT.
The S2 is better suited to the area / time I now live in with a longer wheelbase, hot water heat and functional AC. It is also inexpensive to maintain to a very high standard. It is fast, torquey, sounds great, shifts smoothly and it handles and stops extremely well for a large GT car. I fully expect to get "Flamed" for this post, except for Paul. Goodbye and drive safe, DP.

Oh, they may flame ya...but you can laugh at them as they get smaller in your mirrors. Stage 2 roush is plenty quick for the streets.
 Enjoy...and welcome to the simpler & easier car world.

Mustangs are welcome here, without the attitude.
 I myself dig AC and V8s. Probably why I still have a 928. I don't know where all the hate for Mustangs comes from. You certainly don't hear much of it for Camaros...

Is the Roush Stage 2 like the old Saleen S351's? I am still keepign my eyes open for a 1995 S351. I have also contemplated a 2000 Cobra R, they are cool too.
