If im throwing down 30k for anything it better have an authentic new car smell as opposed to pine tree air freshener to cover up sweaty ass burnt rubber track day smell.

Dude my supra... I'm prob over 10k in on mods but I've had it I think since 03-04. I'm 2j swapped and singled which I will regret posting, but you know that said I make AT LEAST mustang power... No matter what kind of engine build I wind up with when this eventually blows will I ever feel 100% secure on a road trip? Hell to the fucking no. And if you think any of those 30k cars would make me feel the least bit more secure you are crazy. Aftermarket and old shit breaks. The mustang is best of both worlds for 5 years 50k miles.
