My dad's considering a semi-cheap weekend/fun car..

***chrisfrofro*** · 01-28-2008, 12:13 AM

what do you guys think about these two? they're local so there wouldnt be any big hassle with trying to ship..

eBay Motors: Ford : Mustang (item 110213566527 end time Feb-01-08 14:47:56 PST)

eBay Motors: Chevrolet : Camaro (item 110217800315 end time Feb-13-08 16:00:47 PST)

there's those two and he also really likes the newest body style of Trans Am.. he came close to getting a Firebird Formula and regrets not picking it up as cheap as it was

Out of the two i would pick the mustang....but personally i would get like an s2k or sumthin instead.

I am indifferent by both of those cars. S2000 would be the "semi-cheap weekend/fun car" for me. They are going for under $18K on the used market these days.

he's not into imports at all.. he would really like an old MG roadster but cant find one affordable..

ya an MG would be pretty cool. nicer than a muscle car, but thats just my opinion

a used C5 corvette is the best value you could get... much stronger engine, much better handling, 20 years newer etc.

unless he wants the retro look... but a 2002/2003 corvette convertible is a beautiful car and an amazing value
