Hello to all
just a quick desription of myself and my automotive past. I have owned and driven the best of all worlds as far as i can afford. I started with a 2005 wrx sti, it was a blast and easy to modify. possibly the best car bang for buck that ive owned, running around 400hp. Then upgraded to a 2001 M3 convertible fully done up but stock engine. I liked it but it didnt have enough punch i find. Was good with the ladies but for me was more of a show off car. I currently own and selling a 2004 svt cobra convertible. Fastes car i woned at 500hp. The car is a blast, reliable but i find that its just to commen. I am from canada and almost everyone owns mustangs here, granted its an SVT but still looks like a mustang.
Anyway, im turning 30 this year and ever since the first RT/10 was introduced i fell in love. I told myself i need to own this monster before im 30 and with a couple of good financial moves i am now in a position to pull the trigger.
It was a debate between a red 97 rt with 19000 miles at $27K or a silver 99 rt with 34000 miles at $30K. I chose the 97 so i could lightly mod it to my taste.
I dont know what to do first, it needs tires so i was thinking of upgrading to a 03 setup wheels and tires, or keep the stockers with new rubber and get an exhaust/intake short shifter etc and maybe get some new wheels in a couple of years
i find the OE 17's suit the car but they are a little to small.
just wanted to get some opinions off the experts, i really love this site. By far the nicest and most helpful people on any other car forum.
i cant wait to make a dream come true, to me its more than a car its like accomplishing something huge.
plus i told my wife that we need to get a viper then we can have kids lol. needless to say she was she is happy
