So what are you waiting for, go sign the papers man. Then your opinion will be validated.

no, my opinion would be slightly skewed. Plus a $30K investment on a car is huge to me. My Galaxie allows me to fly under the smog police radar.

[QUOTE=Ke^in;14315309]Not everyone is guilty of projection. Nor do I accuse everyone of it. Just those that do it ;-) And there is no such thing as a double projection. I think you mean a reverse one
Lol, yes that's what I meant.

AS far as speed and price goes, the GT was always cheaper than the SS and such.

GT was cheaper and had less performance. The Mach1 was around the same price and performance. The Cobra was somewhat more, and a lot more performance.

So you basically get what you pay for as far as performance goes.
Yeah that's always been the case I suppose. The Cobra had a mission to complete, and so I don't count it

When have I played stupid before? Sorry, I don't know who you are or why I should pay attention to you so I looked over this question.

And I sold the 95' 331 car to a 15 year old girl for her first car.

Yeah. ok. Since you like asking other people for "verification" of their cars I just thought i'd ask you the same. But somehow I knew you couldn't provide that.

Anyhow, carry on.

I think there is plenty of verification of that car. Here is plenty clicky

BTW she is very pleased with the car. Says it gives her great gas mileage and in the end I got a faster Integra for it. Everyone's happy!!

Sorry if I come off assish...again I just don't know you, thus the lack of caring of your .02

If there's not a track vid and/or timeslip i'm not even concerned. I've seen all of your recycled pictures before.
