I've driven this car and it is THE most solid and responsive fox car I have ever driven. It handled better than any of my cars with 15" or 16" rims and that was when it was rollin' on fo-teen inch steel dubs! The exhaust, all custom fabricated, sings a beautiful tune when you kick the skinny pedal down (it inspired me to do my t-bird much later). And... BONUS, um, power moonroof! The interior is every bit as good as it looks and the seats are comfy and supportive. Also, as Eric says, the brakes are fantastic, I could've sworn the pedal should go down further, but it must be the big drums out back that help. I dunno what else to say really, Eric has it all covered on the site. I just thought I'd add a second opinion (as if the E-man's word isn't good enough).

Well, I own 4 cars at this point. I need to sell 2 of them....the light blue V6 Blue Max will be next. Once those 2 are gone, I'm down to the convertible and the V8 Blue Max. For the summer at least, I'll be driving the Max every day while hunting for something else. Pretty much know what I want, just have to find it. Once I get it, you'll know. :)
selling the twin....tisk tisk
What a shame to see all that rust. Ohio is not kind to its cars.
I'd like to hear the story behind this:
Well, at CJ03 I drove the 'Bird to the hotel Sunday morning, and Crystal came over to see it. I was talking to her about how much rust there was, especially on the driver's side behind the wheel. It was at the point where the paint alone was keeping a hole from starting. And then she started pokin' at it with her little girl hands.
Thus the custom Speed Hole by Crystal™.
I'm never gonna live that one down... If I lived closer, I was gonna sneak over and weld it up when nobody was looking, but a 10 hour drive is a bit much just to confuse somebody... :crazy:
True...I'm cornfused enough as it is. :hick:
Eh, not like that wasn't going to happen eventually Crystal. I really don't put the fault on you. It's just one of those great stories to build upon the legend of the Sport. ;)
I know... all in good fun :flip:
man to bad I am a thousand miles awat (litteraly)
Oh, big time bump...
Still got it, still need to get rid of it. Come on, folks...HO motor, custom 2.5" exhaust with a custom X-pipe (don't even need to remove it to drop the trans!), great brakes, fully loaded...yeah it's rusty, so what! Makes a good daily driver.
Dropped to $900. Worth way more than that in parts alone. Please rescue this 'Birdie from my driveway. :)
Man, I'd be all over that if I had a way to get it...
Ooooohhhhhhhh!!!! *dances around like a little child about to pee* I would so almost have that much if it weren't for bills. Maybe if I become homeless?!?!?!
eric how long can you wait for money, and would you pick me up from the airport? For $900 even with me flying there picking it up and driving it back would cost less then just a mustang engine out here. Send me a PM. If it can wait for 2 to 3 weeks I will get it for sure.
Well, he's waited over a year already, so I think 2-3 weeks might be doable, but I don't know his current situation.
PS - That car is fun as hell, I drove it the weekend of CatJam and even Zach's low-mileage 97 couldn't keep up with it.
that is awsome. Depending I might just s it for the engine, but with how good it sounds I doubt it. I would kill for this car for $900. Half the mustang eingines that I have been looking for (with 100,XXX miles) Have costed more then a plane ticket down there and the $900 and the gas to drive it back.
You'd fly all the way out here for a $900 beater...?!
...that's dedication. ;)
Yeah I might just do that. If I can get a good idea of what the condition of the car is, (I am sure it is fine, after all it is erics car)Its just that a mustang engine would cost alot (around $2000). That alone would sway me twoards it. Then it is also a tbird in better condition then any of my cars(minus rust) and fairly good part change conditions. plus if I go, then I have to go to cat jam next year.
eirc,
will you sell the spare grill and do you have picture of the grill

This is true. We honed on it and he just kept pulling and pulling.
Personally, I love the car. If I had the money and space I'd be all over it.
By the way, it's a '96, Brian. :mad:
I could sell it, yes...I'll snag a photo over the weekend.
The car has balls big time...I'm not a betting man but if it were taken to the track, as-is it would probably do high 15's. Even better with gears. ;)
I wish I would have known this before last Friday, I just bought a $900 car to drive around so I can stop feeding my truck gas.
Just an update....
IT'S SOLD! Woohoo!
Thanks for the interest everyone!
So now the convertible's next, right? I plan on winning the lottery tonight and will be looking for a new ride...
Razzle snazzle wrick wrastardly!!! Oh well, at least you have extra cash to sink into the cougar!
What the hell is Brian going to drive at CJ '06-'09?
Click-click... BURN!
Maybe I'll put some Cougar emblems on the Neon.
