Default To Trade or Not To Trade??

Ok So i have a 95 Gt Vert with Slp loudmouth, headers, converitble, cobra bumper and saleen wheels.. I love the car.. But just for the heck i listed the car for sale or trade, and was asked by one guy to trade for a 94 Formula 6speed with t-tops.. But the car looked like it was ruff.. SO i passed. Then i was asked by a guy with a 97 silver Z28 full leather, t-tops, but its an auto.. The car is extremley nice and i know that the time i put money into the stang to get it to 285hp (like the Z) i'll be deep into the 1,000 range? SO i need some opinions, Im not looking for the typical fords rule and chevys drule thing.. Im looking for "what would you do"???

yes stick with your stang. you think 1000 in parts is bad, try getting more power out of that lt1 for the same as the stang. not gonna happen.

yea the guy is right, the camaros after market parts cost way more then the mustangs. its weird i know. 1000 dollars goes farther with the mustang, even though the camaro may come with more horses stock then the stang. but really u shouldnt ask us, i mean this is up to u and we wont be driving so u should be making the decision.

unless it's an LS1 I would keep the stang. LT1 slow heavy and ugly.

Its cheaper to keep your 95 with the 5.0 motor.
