Jealousy rears it's ugly head.
So nice, though. Congratulations. Please tell me you kept the Mopar.
i'm interested to know how it compares to the '99.
From what i've seen and read, it seems like they run really quiet but open up quite a bit when you lay into them in terms of sound. any truth to that or are you still puttin around town in it?
An s197 is about TEN+ times better than an sn95 is over a Fox.that's a great lookin car, i'm interested to know how it compares to the '99.
meh, I'd go up against your fusion of choice in myAn s197 is about TEN+ times better than an sn95 is over a Fox.
The sn95 and Fox are chassis designs based on when engineers used slide rules (not even calculators!) to design a chassis.
The sn95's had some CAD thrown on top of an ancient chassis.
The s197 platform is easily 30+ years newer in every aspect over the sn95s and Foxes.
People put coil-overs in foxes and sn95 when the chassis is nowhere designed for that type of load! But, they do it to try to get better handling, etc.
Sorry, even the Ford Fusion kicks the *ss of a modified sn95 or Fox. Then again, *I* would hope that with the advances in CAD and chassis design knowledgeable that would be the case.
On the other hand, the new cars are even a bigger massive PITA to scan, fix. Add in the slimeball dealers REQUIRING a dealer visit to scan/debug/so stuff, and I have very mixed feelings. For example, want the brakes of your POS Prius bleed properly - you HAVE to go to a dealer! Yes, just for a full and proper brake bleeding.
Oh well, I'm still waiting for my Ford Fusion plug-in that I'll likely get in ~2 years (next model year after it's initial intro).
BTW: NICE CAR!!
