Yeah you have to work the angles a little bit on the Ti, that being its best.. As someone who didn’t like the look until actually looking at the one I ended up buying the look really grows on you the more time you spend with it.

They’re outdated, but these are some of my favorites:

I now have charcoal Miata daisies (with an unpainted lip) and some RallyArmor mudflaps. It also sits a tiny bit lower, since the tires went from 185/65 to 185/60. Oh, and it has a period-correct Michigan tag on the front.

Another rare ordinary vehicle, eh? Really cool. First year of my version of the truck (Colorado w/ V8) they only sold 13 in Canada. At least, so I’m told. But that was ‘09, mine’s ‘10, so who knows.

Oh I honestly hated them from the back for the longest time until I slowly started looking at them because they were significantly cheaper than a regular e36 coupe or sedan. After spending time with a few in person I fell in love with it. It’s just kinda...different. When I’m out of college and have some money to throw around I ultimately want to S52 swap it. It’s a full 500 pounds lighter than an e36 M3 so I think that could be pretty fun.

My favorite picture of my Mustang so far is probably this one, from the day I brought it home:

This one with it looking a little more complete is good, too.

I also like that that one was taken at the end of January, in Rhode Island, and I was able to drive a Fox with drag radials when I should have been buried in snow.

Yep, that's pretty much the defining nature of the truck. We bought it as a beater with a heater. And 4WD. I drive it once every other week or so, and of course when we need to haul something or feel like going to the drive-in movies.

If i’m totally honest I think the car can look great from some angles, and not so great from others. the back is one of its strong suits because of the way the hips look (to me). Despite what people think about the looks though, it drives awesome. I’m in love with that car.

Yeah, the grille is very polarizing. I think it looks pretty awesome, personally.

Plus it allows more airflow than the standard LX grille, so I suppose that’s a benefit.

I dig your truck by the way. In a few years I’ll def be buying a pick up, and those seem to be just the right size. Have you done any towing with it?

Wheels are the easiest difference, but hard to tell if its moving. The front lip spoiler and fixed rear spoiler are the other give a ways.

Smallbear wants a modern Syclone, local Maple Leafs spammer > zveugen 02/10/2016 at 11:22

Thanks, I do too!!

I haven’t towed anything bigger than a woodsplitter. It’s supposed to be able to tow 6000lbs, about 500 more than the 5cyl. Tbh though, I’m not sure how much I’d want to tow with it—it’s pretty light (around 4100lbs) and would get pushed around pretty easy.

You want good info on that though, try

www.355nation.net

www.coloradofans.com

www.canada355.ca

As far as size goes, try comparing it to other vehicles on here —it’s actually 2" narrower than a Golf.

I need a set of 10 hole wheels. And the 85-86 GT is really my favorite hatchback Fox, though I've become partial to four-eyes since owning mine. I'm trying to find a four eye convertible to go with my notch now.

If I could afford a ‘16 Camaro SS, I’d buy it.

I could probably afford a turbo or v6, but it just makes more sense to get a used Ecoboost for the same money or less but with leather, heated sets, etc.

Thank you. At first I bought it because the price was too low to pass up, but the green won me over as soon as I saw it. They built 323 BGM Z28's in ‘98 which I thought was kind of cool.

The tail lights on the car are broken and I was actually thinking about picking up a set of 93-96 lights/harnesses. I really like the cleaner look of them. I had a set years ago and have no clue where they went.

Hey man they’re cheap these days. If you got $3,500-5k and search hard enough you can find one. If things stay on course for the year mine’s getting a tubular torque arm, some QA1 goodies, drag radials and some much needed rehabilitation inside and out. What kind did you have?

BeaterGT > Speed 02/10/2016 at 14:25

Yeah I only spent 4k on my 94 Z. Bright red, 6 speed, hardtop. It needed a little too much work than I was willing to justify but I appreciated it for being my primary vehicle through college and getting me to my first job. I’ll just live vicariously through you until I can afford a CTS-V
