Are they GTs? I love the 99-04 body style if it's a gt and in good shape 8 is fair I'd say. I got mine for 7k with a lot of miles.

You could pick up a REALLY nice '94 - '95 Cobra for around $8k - $10k depending on the mods and a car like that will hold its value better than the other choices. Also, you'll get better handling and brakes than an '03 GT. I'd think the '05 could be had a little cheaper unless it is absolutely pristine. Love the S197 body style though. What colors/options on each?

The 03 is black and the 05 is Grey with a black stripe down the middle

My '94 Cobra is black, but I'm partial to Gray / Silver... Is the stripe on the '05 vinyl? If so I'd probably remove it.

Not sure Sean your car is very awesome Leaning more towards the 05 and up body style. I talked to the bank and better finacing newer the car is.

I'd go for the '05 GT if it's in the budget. I've found mine to be a better overall car than my earlier fox, SN95, and New Edge GTs were. Not that the older stuff was bad, it's just that the newer stuff is better.

The s197 is a nicer roomier car on the inside. The 3 valve is a great engine providing you pull the plug problems out of the equation with a new set of plugs that don't separate.

Oh man - you're making this really tough bringing Sean's car into the equation... Talk about a LOT of bang for the buck!!!
