Erik D. - 13 Oct 2004 04:41 GMT OK, as some of you know I am kind of car shopping. The 98 SS I was going to buy fell through so I am still driving my truck. After putting 275 miles on it today for work I realize more than ever that I need something that gets better than 12 miles per gallon and is more comfortable to drive and has a back seat. I was thinking about buying a 99-up Z71, but they aren't too much better on gas. I'd like something that gets in the mid 20's on the highway. I also want to keep the notes at about 300 or 350 a month. I am thinking probably around the 15,000 range, give or take. I want something at least as new as '99. At first I didn't want a mustang because I am not a huge fan of the 4.6. Lately i've been steering that direction though. It'll probably be something I only keep for 5-7 years, but it will get quite a bit of mileage. I don't need anything super fast, but I want something with some power at least. I just don't know. I've driven several '99 up mustangs and I like them. I've just never had anything with a OHC motor. They seem to be pretty readily available. I think if I could find a mach 1 in my price range I would be sold, but they are a little more expensive. I dunno, someone persuade me into something, lol. I guess I know what I should do, but I just need to get some more opinions. Thanks! Erik D. '94 white lightning

After putting [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > Erik D. > '94 white lightning Look into a used Focus SVT. Back seats, good handling, good power/weight and reasonable milage. Doubt you will find an american V8 that will give you 25mpg if driven at all aggresively.

After putting [quoted text clipped - 24 lines] > > Howard What he said about the Focus. We got my wife a new '03 in January for about $16,500 so you should be able to get a used one for around $10-12K depending one the mileage and such. It replaced a 4 door Explorer and we really don't miss the room. It's a blast to drive but lacks the torque of a Mustang or your truck. Overall it would be a good choice for a daily commuter.
Erik D. - 13 Oct 2004 14:41 GMT While it makes sense, I do not see myself driving a focus.....ever. I will sacrifice some gas mileage to have a little bit of low end torque. I have had two american V8's that got 25 mpg on the highway, and I know that the '99-up GT's are capable of the same. I can live with 15 or so in the city and 23-27 on the highway. This 12mpg thing just kills me, cause it only does maybe 14 on the highway. I appreciate the suggestion, and I know it makes alot of sense to buy something economical, but its just not me, lol.

[quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > Erik D. > '94 white lightning Have you ever driven a Tbird on the highway then back roads?
A nice 97 Tbird Cougar or Mark seems to fill your requirements.
200Kmiles on minimal maintenance is easy
Cheap.. and on my 3.8's i easily get 25 mpg on 2/3 highway, 1/3 neighborhood dring, lots of starts and stops... so on a long commute and a 4.6, not much rubberbanding, you should get 25 easily
Joe - 14 Oct 2004 01:24 GMT Erik, just a couple of points:
a) I think you realize this, but Focuses (Focii?) suck. They're weeniemobiles with the wrong wheels driving the car.
b) You need a pushrod motor, so check out some used 'Vettes. Otherwise, find another SS or even a WS6. You know they're out there.

I'd love a vette, but can't afford the insurance. As far as LS1 F-bodies, they are everywhere. Unfortunately, the ones I see are all auto's, or they are beat to hell. I just want something clean, and reliable. And I don't want something with 1,000,000 miles on it no matter how clean it is. I just can't seem to find anything that really jumps out at me like that 93 cobra I almost bought and that 98 SS I almost bought. sh.t happens though, guess i'll just keep waiting for the right one. Thanks for the advice. Erik D. '94 white lightning

In fact, my insurance company won't even insure it for me so I would have to switch companies. I'll probably do that anyway though. Erik D. '94 white lightning

Erik D. > '94 white lightning You could always keep your eyes peeled for a low-mileage Fox car. They're far and few between, but there are still a few out there. Your only other option would be to go to a mod motor Mustang. But if you have the time, wait for what you _really_ want.

Rein - 14 Oct 2004 16:15 GMT IT all depends. If you stick to the speed limit somewhat, use your cruise control a lot and don't run into too much traffic and drive mainly freeways, you'll probably get 25 mpg with a GT.

JD Adams - 14 Oct 2004 00:21 GMT I wouldn't rule out Mustang 4.6's because of fuel mileage or reliability. They're durable as hell, and mine gets 27+ mpg in mixed city/hwy driving. If all you're going to do is drive the piss out of it, why spend the bucks?
I ended up settling on an '88 Chevy Celebrity 2.5L beater for commuter action. I paid only $1200 for it, and it gets 35 mpg. I can't see paying cash money each month for a daily/winter beater/commuter. I just wanted something cheap to get me from A to B, and I've saved a TON of cash driving this thing to/from work instead of the Mustang.
If you're mind is still open to something utilitarian and you can swallow your pride in lieu of huge cash savings, consider a beater. Take that $400/mo. you'd pay for that torque-monster you spoke of, and put it in the bank, instead of in someone else's pocket.
-JD
Erik D. - 14 Oct 2004 00:31 GMT The thing is, it won't be just a beater car. Its gonna be everything. I plan on parking my truck and building something radical for it(I want my personalized license plate to read 20PSI408). I want something nice to drive around every day. I know the mustangs are durable and get good mileage, thats why I am going back to that. So basically, I am looking for something nice, but something durable as well. Its gonna be a daily driver/weekend car/night car/going out car/cruiser. Basically I am looking for something all-purpose. Erik D. '94 white lightning

Basically I am > looking for something all-purpose. Gotcha. In that case, we're back to Mustangs. Foci are pretty utilitarian and more for the younger crowd. I'd rather drive my Beater than a Focus any day. A good used 98+ GT vert would fit your needs nicely. Finding one that isn't overmodded or beat to hell will be a challenge, but they're out there. Even the 98-99 Cobras are a pretty good deal. Just saw a '98 Cobra for sale on a lot the other day for $5995; black/black convertible. The paint was 85% and the tires were cheapies, but other than that, a bargain.
Happy Hunting!

Consider a Cherokee! the 4 liter has a lot of torque, but does well on the hwy, the 4wd is nice, plenty of space, very comfy!

Phillip Wendell - 14 Oct 2004 17:22 GMT Erik, if I may be so bold to direct you towards salvation, let me suggest the NEWLY REDESIGNED Kia Rio. This car starts at only $10,280 (you probably pay that much a month in gas on your current truck.) I know this isn't what you're currently considering, but it deserves a look (or two!) It comes in three models including the luxurious PP. This model includes extra features such as power doors and windows, body-colored side moldings and a tachometer for you gearheads out there. Expect to pay a little more for the PP model... If I haven't convinced you yet to take a test drive, let the 1.6L DOHC engine draw you in. This engine sips gas and throws out horsepower. More information can be found at: http://www.kia.com/rio/index.php. If you're interested in more information then send me an email. I don't just drive a Rio, I also sell them. See you on the road!

Do you know how silly you sound trying to associate 1.6L with any perceptible horsepower? Thankfully, you didn't even mention torque.

Muhahahahaha!!! Good one, Phil. My neighor lady has one of these things, and according to her, it sucks mud even in the 'sub-nonextant-horsepower' catagory.
She only bought it because: (in order of importance)
1. The local KIA dealer found a lender stupid enough to front her 10-grand, as she has a sub-600 credit score, $80,000 in credit card debt and no assets.
2. Like the rest of her, her a.s is huge, and the seat was wide enough for her to wedge both cheeks in comfortably. The seatbelt probably needed an extension, but I have not verified this, nor do I want to.
3. Her upwardly-mobile career demands she have dependable transportation. She's working the front counter at a local burger joint, BUT she may soon move up to French Fry Girl! Her future's so bright, she's gotta wear shades. <G>
4. Her age and status in life (she's 47) absolutely DEMANDS she drive an upscale vehicle. Driving to work in her hubby's primered '71 Datsun pickup just doesn't suit her zest for excitement.
5. Her 20-yr. old daughter just bought an '02 Chevy Malibu, and she was not to be outdone by a kid with an even lower credit score, who was only $40,000 in debt. What the hell, ya ain't gonna live forever, right?
LOL!

We try to make the purchase exciting for the customer as it is a big move becoming a car owner. There were a lot of hugs and high fives on that day.
It seems that the responders I heard back from lean towards more horsepower than the Rio. Maybe you have heard of the Spectra, but have you seen the NEW Spectra5? It has sport-tuned suspension, metal pedals and a spoiler. This is IN ADDITION to the 2.0L engine. This baby makes heads turn! Our monthly top seller gets to take one of these bad boys home for a month.
Maybe I STILL haven't gotten the word Kia buzzing in your head yet. Maybe our latest promotion will. Come test drive one of these fine autos and drive off with Shrek 2 on DVD when it comes out. The really got one of my cousins interested in a test drive...

Lean towards more horsepower?? Well, how bout a SB which is more than 3 times the size of your 2.0 and produces in the neighborhood of 450 HP and 450 ft/lbs torque. Keep the rice boy pedals and the airplane wing. As for "sport tuned suspension"; why does everybody think that adding stiffer springs makes it "sport tuned"?
