Wow talk about an evil convo..... nas, if it makes you feel any better my boyfriend of almost a year drives a 01 Camaro and he thinks there is no such thing as a better car (more or less a ford equivalent
)... now he has a few mods and I know there is no way in hell I could beat him but I still love my stang..
.. he has 28k on his and as many problems as my 97 with 102k on it... I have to laugh at how cocky he is with his car..
. I know I wouldn't trade for his, I love my fords and always have.... (I'm 16 and I already had 2) so tell your friend his car may be a little better but it makes up for his lack of something else....
.... and as far as the question about upgrading... be happy you got something that looks twenty times nicer than his car (even if it doesn't run as fast).... save your money and buy a GT later... I work insurance and after about 24 it won't make a huge dif if you drive a cobra or a 6.... that's when you have fun......
