Tough choices. A MystiChrome Cobra is very nice, but be prepared for premium gas and 12 mpg in the city. Best bang for the buck would be a low mileage killer looking black Mach 1. The '05 GT is the best all around, but I would not pay MSRP or more. A truck would never cross my unless I would need it for work of if I would live in a farm.

First things first, look at insurance rates, payments, interest, etc.

If you have patience, order yourself a nice '06 Mustang GT, otherwise, check out the used car lots for a Mach1 or even a nice Bullitt IMO.

Any special-edition SN-05 is a great choice

2005 GT would be my first choice (choose any color )
Mach 1 would be my second choice (Azura Blue, Screaming Yellow, Competition Orange, or Performance White [these colors just look so good with black accents and black spoiler])

I have checked insurance on all of them and there (sp) all 2700 a year and above.i wanted the truck so i can haul my dirtbike around so i wouldn't have to rely on my friends all the time. but i can get say a mach 1 and a late 90's ranger at a later date and it wouldnt be too bad. nobody has said anything about the lightning though that is what scares me.

also check out the 05 F-250 Powerstroke, they MOVE and get the 5 speed auto, it is the fastest.
the lightning is amazing, the motor is so strong, no problems at all, they run 13.80s stock, they are on lots so u wotn have to wait like u would for an 05 mustang and they are gorgeous, u really should get one.

Id get a Lightning. It gives you much more versitility than any of the stangs and it comes with a pretty potent power plant that you can mod and make more power out of just like a stang.

I would get the 03 / 04 cobra. I dont like trucks, and as far as the stangs go the cobra is going to be faster than and have a better resell value than the mach or the 05 gt.
