Wow she looks good. I had a 89' black on black leather GTA when I was 19 am 41 now. You know what's crazy that car is still around and alive!. Probably has well over 250xxx miles original motor and all. I drove the snot out of it and so did the previous owner. L98 was a beast of a motor. Mine had no digital dash but had a steering wheel with buttons. Good times.

80s car design, especially in the interiors is probably the most interesting in history. The automotive world had a fascination with digital interfaces including speedometers/tachometers but the technology wasn't there yet to make something simple. They all looked so complicated, like you just entered the cockpit of a jetliner.

Correct, mine are tops from Cars & Concepts. I like them better than factory in both design and appearance. To minimize chassis flex, I installed the wonderbar and Alston Racing subframe connectors. I chose the Alstons for their light weight, only 20lbs. The SFCs made a big difference.

So. Here’s my story right. I’ve got 3 mustangs. 2 paddle shift (no clutch) 1 automatic. I love all of em. But I’ve been wanting a “race car” starter car for so long. I finally convinced my friend to let me get his for 2 grand. It was a steal MAJOR steal and I’m so happy. It has the T5 5 speed same engine as yours and the t tops. Really happy the car is so grumbly and responsive to me when I use it. But do you have ANY helpful tips for this car. I don’t expect any response but any knowledge I can take I can use haha. Going fast in it tho…. Terrifyingly fun
