[QUOTE="93 347 Cobra, post: 16430063, member: 7047"] That's ignoring the S550's advantages over the S197. The S197 had the classic muscle look that many guys really preferred, and that can be a real advantage if that's your thing. But that's nearly where it stops. Some Ford Exec axed an IRS in S197 because it would cost too much. But let's look at everything else. Interior? Outdated. Chassis rigidity? Not as good. Clearance for wide tires? Inadequate. Oil pump gears? Marginal. Connecting Rods? Marginal. Rear brakes? Lol. But one other major upside is that it offered the glass roof option and if you like cruising at all it makes a huge difference in opening up the interior. The new cars have such a long list of chassis and tech improvements alone that it's not even a comparison. Exactly. [/QUOTE]
