SN-95 easily.
ok so since you drove one fox for 7 years that means that they are all as reliable as yours :thumbsup:
Actually now that I think of it, I daily drove 3 different fox bodies all at different times. An 86 GT T-Top, an 88 5.0 Coupe and a 93 Coupe and all were maintenance hogs. The stupidest things would go out on all three of them.
Aside from the engine, there isn't a single thing on all three of those cars that I DIDN'T replace, straight down to the tab/tad solenoids on the passenger shock tower. 2nd gear went out on the '86, the AOD on the 88 and 93 both went south fast and slipped worse than a wet pig.
Sorry, daily driving an aging and unrefined fox body is the stupidest idea in the world. Anyone who takes your advice to daily drive one, haha well proceed with caution. I sent out my warning, i've said what I needed to say and we can just leave it at that. You've had your experience I've had mine with 3 different foxes. Don't get me wrong, I love fox bodies but i'll never daily drive one again.
The funny thing is the tan interior doesn't really bother you after a while, you kinda get used to it. Then you see a car with nice black leather and you wanna blow your brains out. lol
its not a dumb idea to daily one, thats just your opinion so i take it like that. Like i said my car was extremely reliable, even in the snow it wasn't bad. Plus it had minimal issues over the years, and of course the parts i replaced because i wanted to mod the car.
Don't generalize all fox's because of your issues with yours. Not all are gonna be headaches.
If i had to i'd daily one again. But when i do get another one, i'll have another vehicle to drive because i'll want to keep it in as good as condition as possible.

New Edge. I don't like the looks of the SN95s.
