Only fox i'd consider buying these days is a 93 Cobra or a 87-93 Saleen. Unfortunately prices for those have climbed into the unobtanium region unless the Covid economy lingers long enough to cause as correction in the collector vehicle market...
But i've seen a lot of SN95's at "make me buy it" prices. During the winters, a 99-04 S281 Saleen came up for sale for $8K and was fairly clean. I've seen lots of 94-98 Cobras for sale in the $4-6K range. You can get a 99-04 GT for $3500-4000 if you look hard enough.
I've been putting aside some money for a second stock driver Mustang (or FFR Cobra) but haven't decided what to get. Been watching '93 Cobras but i'm not paying $25K for a fox. $5-8K for a nice, clean driver '96-98 Cobra vert? Why not
I missed the boat on saleen foxes and 93 cobra's too. I do miss my Saleen Explorer a little, but honestly as cool as it was, it was a terrible family vehicle with the size of modern child seats.
While I could use some more toys, I have no need for a daily other than my supercrew f150 which Isn't really a daily since I have a work van.
Hard to justify another mustang for me.
I wanted to do a Grand national for a nice family cruising car, but price has went absurd on them. $7500 buys you a primered car that is disassembled and comes in boxes. 15k is the ground floor (but most likely 20k-25k)for anything decent and I certainly don't want 2 cars that need to be painted.
I think the real gem right now for me would be an 96-98 saleen. So easy and cheap to just convert it to a terminator top end.
I've seen them in the 6k-12k range.
My first car was a mitsubishi starion flareside, maybe a 5.0 swap?
Edit: I also don't see any market correction coming to fox anything.
We all beat used and abused them. Most weren't collected, they were driven, so there isn't enough high quality cars out there for the price to go down.
It's not like 05+shelby's where they all are secondary cars that are garage kept.
Most foxes were driven.
