been there done that....but get an early mustang driver if ya want too, you are in the sun belt unlike me and can get 1 yrs enjoyment out of it at a fraction of the cost of a Prowler/Viper without taking yet another depreciation hit in 1-2 yrs or whenever....might be better than taking the 10K depreciation hit now on your Snake too....my wife won't ride in my SPF (too loud, too windy, too rough riding etc etc) so I got a 65 Mustang convertible as another 'toy'. Ya push a button and top goes up and it is 95% dry re water sealing (always some leaks with these old designs), windows go up, a stereo provides tunes, two smaller folks can get in back seat when needed or larger if cramped, parts are cheap if needed for any mechanical work, car is easy to work on, wife thinks car is still 'cool' and allows me to play with the SPF by myself and tool around town cruising in 65 Stang with her or she too can drive it. Just a thought....one does need a balance between hobbies and wife's approval (at least in my house for 35 yrs so far)...good luck....B
