[QUOTE="kbillan, post: 8320020, member: 86558"] Okay-- here we are. 105,200 miles by the time i got it home from Chicago. Car is pretty clean. It has a few small issues here and there. The door moldings both need resprays, although photograph okay.. Interior- id say it is a 9 out of 10.. its clean, taking points for aftermarket radio-- missing the trim panel behind driver side mirror and both of the sun visor mirror flaps need attention. THe knob for the glove box needs to be replaced as it is yellow.. Aluminum spare is there. Extrerior-- id say-- 7 out of 10. It has a little checking on the hood.. some scuffs here and there.. and the front clip has been resprayed. ALL vin numbers on quarters and fenders are there. Undercarriage is rust free, although there is some undercoating.. In spots though=== weird.. Headlights have been replaced... mirrors repainted, as was the top cowl vent and wipers.. but done decent. Whats under the hood? Good F'n question. I flew to this car because it was described as having only an X pipe, cold air intake.. and been lowered. Car seems a tad lumpy for stock cam, although i have never been in a 1993 cobra.. I have had a B cam car before- and its NOT that aggressive. Dunno. the big bummer-- As i was test driving it-- i did my usual bring it up to about 3k in first gear-- and mash it... the car blew the tires up all the way through 2nd gear. I was a little concerned as-- well- this cant be stock.. LMAO. The i was thinking-- maybe im just not used to mustangs-- its been 10 years.. roughly.. The i was thinking perhaps it has a different rear end ratio.. As i drove it home, and finally got it on the throughway-- 60mph@2200RPM puts us in 4.10's. Which made me madd.. but that can be easily fixed. What should the stock ratio be on this? He is willing to give me a set of 3.27's to make up for it... he says he had no idea they were in ti.. (wank wank wank) It has a check engine light-- which is not too scary, considering it runs fine and all of the other gauges seem A O K.... he claims it came on when the X pipe went on.. which could just be an O2 Sensor.. but the code reader says MAP sensor...
