I don't think I will ever get rid of mine. It will be 5 years this June. I looked for over a year before buying this car after spending a decade playing around with Chevys. This is the 3rd fox body I've owned and probably the last.

It's only an inch or two. What's the big deal?

I've only had mine four years, but I'll never sell it. I've owned a bunch of foxes, but this one is the best I've had by far. My son now has a fox, and I plan on adding to my collection soon, but I dont think I'll ever sell my lx hatch. My wife thinks I'm nuts.. "How many mustangs do you need?" she says.. LOL.

Congrats Grover, that's really cool. I wish very much I hadn't sold my '89 GT when I graduated high school in 2002, as the buddy I sold it to totaled it three weeks later. At the ripe old age of 31, I now see the value of having "that" car. I get very tempted to get back into a fox, but I think my 2011 is going to be "that" car for me now. It was only a year old when I was able to buy it, I sacrificed a few toys to obtain it, and road tripped with my wife and first born to get it.

That's awesome man.

Mine will have been in the family for 17 years come September. Yikes. Lucky enough to grow in my car and have my dad pass it down.

Mine is coming up on 25 years. I'm sure I'll post something on the day.

Sad thing is that I think the car is holding up better than I am!

This Labor day, I'll have owned my LX for 22 years.

I don't have any pictures of it when I bought it, but here it is in 1999, looks like just like it did in 1994

Sometime in the mid 2000's


Now

18 years for me now that I've owned my Fox.

Finally bought a house with a 2-car garage. Haven't moved the fox in yet, but cant wait for this spring/summer when I can start tinkering with it again.

Last 2-3 years it's been stored while I got engaged, had some kids, sold my condo, etc. Now it's time to party!

Before and after, purchased new in 1989. As mentioned in prior posts I too have finally wiggled somewhat free of suffocating expenses ( Kids , house ) and have finally started collecting some go fast stuff.
