I cast my vote for finding the '92. You -have- to get the 350 though. The 305 (LG4 I believe) is the sux - I own an '86 and it's a DOG!

I'm 20 and have tickets under the belt (nothing outrageous though). I forked about $1400 for a 6mo full coverage policy. Don't regret it one bit.

I'd still take that sweet looking 4th generation firebird convertible over that 3rd generation Z28. It's not even a contest.

That's true, a nice 91-92 Z28 hands down looks better than any fouth gen...SS, WS6, Firehawk, maybe not a nice WS6 Formula though.

guys this is ridiculous. It's like asking (based on looks alone) would you rather have a mustang 5.0 or an 03-04 cobra.

I'd get a tpi camaro, 3rd gen Zs and Irocs are so sweet(even the 91-92 RSs looked damn good). The 3rd gen trans ams looked alright, I'd rather have a formula though.

3rd gens got horrible paint from the factory, and thats why you see so many of them in rough shape.

I know. I am just playing so I hope no one took me serious. I'm full of crap, just ask my wife

BTW I would pass on both Mustangs to get a new shelby cobra
