Already posted before, but a teal cobra would be a good choice, or get a saleen depending on budget

From '87-'93 there isn't much of a difference (speed density is probably the only thing worth mentioning). I'm assuming you want an aero Fox since that's what you had before. To me it's just a matter of deciding which basic model is best suited for you and going from there:

GT
GT Vert
LX Coupe
LX Hatch
LX Vert
T-top GT/LX
--------------------
5-speed
automatic

As others have mentioned there's also the Saleens and Cobras ('93 only). My favorite; any black, hardtop Saleen from '85-93.

This is a carbon copy of the Saleen my first and oldest rival owned back when I had my 85GT (late 80's). Good times.

I hear you. I love a clean-bodied LX but the Saleen kit is very sleek.

Yea, I don't really understand why everyone is specifying years. Like they're totally different.

'87-'93 black notch hands down.

Im a fan of my 90 GT
mass air, forged pistons, 140mph speedo. Most of the good stuff aleady in there.

Either that or an 86 GT

Better yet, a 90 GT converted to an 86 body

Werd. Trunk cars FTW, and black is really the only color you'll ever need.

How about a T-Top notch... or any notch for that matter.

Nothin looks more badass than a notch with slicks for sure, but the 88-92 motors are the best IMO
