gauging interest 97 lsc for sale

Dam,jamie i just sold mine about a month and a half ago ..Black on black I was the second owner and it had 80,000 original miles.BUt ill keep an eye out for you since we live near each other..Where is your new shop at i was just down your way last week and i was gonna stop buy your old shop then i remembered reading you got a new one..
 
That 2nd one is pretty nice, so it seems. I wouldn't pay $5500 for that over Jamies car though. It's just too common, and given that I see cars like that for less, not worth it. Modded foxes are dime-a-dozen, and really only cool at all because of the mods/drivetrain. A base mark is still a great looking car without "make-up" (rims, and other appearance mods), a plain jane base fox with no special stuff is one ugly bitch. I'm not trying to piss in any cheerios here, I just couldn't imagine ever wanting anything like that with the car Jamie has. I like fox mustangs, to a point, I drove one for a bit and it was ok, so I'm not just hating here.
 
If Jaime put a supercharger on his car he would forget about the Notch.
 
Jamie, I'll buy your car. Mine's done as of this morning. I'll even meet your asking price. Let me know, i'm dead serious.

I have a 89 notch mustang black on black. I love that car. Driving the mark, is no comparison too what the 5.0 has down low. But from driving that roomy mark viii, then switching to driving a mustang. Its gonna feel a little cramped believe me. Your mark is killer nice, wish i woulda found one like yours when i was looking for one. Good luck

Cramped? Yes. Also, the tin can, burlap, and recycled plastic effect will be another factor. I love the exterior design of the fox mustang, I like notches, even though I prefer a hatch. But as for the interior, and the feel of driving each of the cars, the mustang can keep it's low-end. However, I did see a very nice custom interior in a saleen once that was so nice I'd have changed my mind for that car.
 
well big mike i think jamie must want a mustang if hes selling his mark to get one...I was just posting some up for him to look at..And really notches really arent a dime a dozen.I got $8,000 for mine and you dont see many notches around anymore unless they are 4 cyl swaps.Ive had about 12 marks and about 8 foxes and there is times when i had a mark and wanted a fox and vice versa and there were times i had both and wanted something else.Im sure hes just sick of having the same kind of car for so long...ANd i dont think you talking ish about foxes is gonna change his mind..Im actually thinking about buying it from him since right now i dont have a fox or a mark..I got a supercoupe and a lincoln ls

I think he is having second thoughts about selling. Or maybe it's just the voices in my head. ;) Don't take my little devil's advocate stance here personally, I'm just laying it on a lil. I know you like both cars, etc, etc., but wouldn't you want a good guy, with a sweet car to stick around? He hasn't even gone to run at the track yet!

People love to get on a high-horse about thier own opinions, and I'm okay with that, I do too. However, I think we are misunderstanding eachother and you are a wee-bit miffed that I'm not jumping in to agree. I really am not talking sh*t, being that I have had personal experience with both cars several times, and am being an active part of the conversation. I really don't feel I have rained on any parades. All along the way here, in my "ish" talking I also mention my affinity for both cars in question, but you seem to let that go by the wayside.

I have multiple times stated that I like foxes, the $5500 modded notch was nice, but not because of the car, it was the work that made it nice. That illustration is my whole point; foxes are nice stock, just not more-so than Marks. Foxes are usually good sellers, I agree. However, it does fluctuate a bit I see really good deals fairly often. I don't mean dime-a-dozen literally, or in the essence that foxes are cheapo crap-cars.

I have noticed all common performance car platforms hold decent resale value. You got $8k for a car that holds little *actual* value, and lots of value for folks who want a performance car, or a collector who wants to have a real nice fox to remember how popular they were when we see the nostalgia of that statement in the future. This really drives my point home, not the inverse.

An understated, powerful, and stylish car that most people don't know well makes loads of bang for the buck for a unique solution to performance and style. When compared to the tangible value-per-dollar, and the uniqueness factor you get for your buck I win with my views, when you compare other factors, it's your game. Foxes sell well due to the demand from being popular, in other words, the resale is artificially high for a car that isn't a "classic", "antique" or, "rare". Marks are opposite for the most part, they are worthless in dollars. Which means yes, for puposes other than enjoyment factor, Marks suck. All that in addition to the fact that they won't get you laid by high-school chicks if you time-machine back to the Vanilla Ice era, and they break easy. This makes you right, and me as well. I like this solution.

I am sorry I wrote a book and pooped on Jamie's thread, I am glad you got a good price for your car, and I think Jamie will have a sweet car in a fox if thats the road he travels. I really am not trying to hate on anything or anyone here, but hey, I already said that. Either way: How often do you see a fox rolling down the road with all the goodies? Now answer the same question about Mark VIII's.
 
no i understand you,Thats why ive 12 marks because for what you pay for them there arent many cars that can compete with them,I actuallylike the stock look of the foxes,But i would rather have jamies car then a fox also...Its funny when you pull up to a fox and stomp on it and keep right with him...Thats also why ive had 3 supercoupes they are kind of a mix of both cars...but i was looking and the pic jamie had of the fox ,they are asking $8000 for it.
 
Glad we are all good here. I don't wanna kill this thread! But yeah, you have good points. I also like the super coupes, I almost bought one.
 
So basically what it boils down to is this. What CAN get me laid by high school chicks if I time-machine back to the Vanilla Ice era?

Yo VIP let's kick it

Ice ice baby (x2)
All right stop collaborate and listen
Ice is back with my brand new invention
Something grabs a hold of me tightly
Flow like a harpoon daily and nightly
Will it ever stop yo I don't know
Turn off the lights and I'll glow
To the extreme I rock a mic like a vandal
Light up a stage and wax a chump like a candle
Dance go rush to the speaker that booms
I'm killing your brain like a poisonous mushroom
Deadly when I play a dope melody
Anything less than the best is a felony
Love it or leave it you better gain weight
You better hit bull's eye the kid don't play
If there was a problem yo I'll solve it
Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it

CHORUS
Ice ice baby vanillla (x4)

Now that the party is jumping
With the bass kicked in and the vegas are pumpin'
Quick to the point to the point no faking
I'm cooking MC's like a pound of bacon
Burning them if you ain't quick and nimble
I go crazy when I hear a cymbal
And a hi-hat with a souped up tempo
I'm on a roll and it's time to go solo
Rollin' in my 5.0 With my rag-top down so my hair can blow
The girlies on standby waving just to say hi
Did you stop no I just drove by
Kept on pursuing to the next stop
I busted a left and I'm heading to the next block
The block was dead
Yo so I continued to A1A Beachfront Avenue
Girls were hot wearing less than bikinis
Rockman lovers driving Lamborghinis Jealous 'cause I'm out getting mine
Shay with a guage and Vanilla with a nine
Reading for the chumps on the wall
The chumps acting ill because they're so full of eight balls
Gunshots rang out like a bell
I grabbed my nine all I heard were shells
Falling on the concrete real fast
Jumped in my car slammed on the gas
Bumpet to bumper the avenue's packed
I'm trying to get away before the jackers jack
Police on the scene you know what I mean
They passed me up confronted all the dope fiends
If there was a problem yo I'll solve it
Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it

REPEAT CHORUS

Take heed 'cause I'm a lyrical poet
Miami's on the scene just in case you didn't know it
My town that created all the bass sound
Enough to shake and kick holes in the ground
'Cause my style's like a chemical spill
Feasible rhymes that you can vision and feel
Conducted and formed
This is a hell of a concept
We make it hype and you want to step with this
Shay plays on the fade slice like a ninja
Cut like a razor blade so fast other DJs say damn
If my rhyme was a drug I'd sell it by the gram
Keep my composure when it's time to get loose
Magnetized by the mic while I kick my juice
If there was a problem yo I'll solve it
Check out the hook while Shay revolves it

Ice ice baby vanilla
Ice ice baby (oh-oh) vanilla
Ice ice baby vanilla
Ice ice baby vanilla ice
Yo man let's get out of here
Word to your mother
Ice ice baby too cold
Ice ice baby too cold too cold (x2)
Ice ice baby

I read what you wrote lol. Just remember what I said if you do decide.... It wouldn't be the first time I flew to your hood. :p

Maybe Calabrio will come through and just delete the whole thing for you. Next, you'll be getting PM's about it.
