    Default Just incase my car gets totalled

    Hopefully I'll eventually get some money to replace my newly wrecked eclipse.

    Thinking C4 vette (probably convertible LT1 model) or 99+ mustang gt

    I voted GT since it seems you want American, but a tt 300zx would be my choice if I were in your situation.

    Yeah, I'll probably be driving the eclipse till they either total it, or give me money, then somehow get a vette. If we sue... well...

    How about after the insurance company looks at it and I get estimates, we compare the check I get, to your car.

    There's only 1 nissan I know of that has been a good car, so I have a bad image of nissan. The rest I have seen have been real pieces.

    I know not all are, but I've seen enough to not want one.

    Some nissan cars are pretty reliable (mostly the newer ones). My 06 Xterra is pretty much bullet proof.

    If I HAD to choose between a mustang and a c4 vette, I would probably go with the C4. I've always liked the Grand Sport vette's. I know the Grand sport's are WAY out of your price range, but if you get a C4 with a LT1, and buy edelbrock's LT4 conversion kit you will have enough power to run with newer vettes.

    edelbrock kit
    http://www.jegs.com/i/Edelbrock/350/7109K/10002/-1

    While you're at it, you might as well throw in an eagle stroker kit
    http://www.jegs.com/i/Eagle/356/B13004L/10002/-1

    Add a few bolt-ons, such as a larger throttle body, injectors, intake, headers, catback, and a good tune and you should be pushing close to 500hp (edelbrock claims over 400hp with just the top end kit.)

    Or you could just leave it mostly stock (add a few bolt ons) and still have a quick car.

    Try getting that much power out of a 99-04 mustang GT without adding forced induction.

    While your thinking is good... Why would he do all that work to something just to trade it with in a few months?
