ACR wanted.........advice sought

[Edward 96GTS]

A friend wants an ACR. Desires low miles, non tracked car.
What model year is most desirable and why? color not a big issue. Any leads?
Thank you

Make sure it's got the A/C and radio options. Most have but some don't...

I would prefer a 2002 because of ABS

Your friend with the yellow stang? Ed, whats up? hows things going?

It depends on what's important to him/her.

A)1999 has forged pistons and lumpier cam + Koni shocks
B)2000 early cars thru March 14 also have Koni shocks as well. Larger capacity oil pan. Some very early 2000 cars had issues with oil burning due to a special cylinder liner. The liner wasn't really the problem but break in procedures were.
C)2001 ABS became standard, all cars have the new shocks, these shocks are considered very difficult to tune.
D)2002 Similar to '01 cars

If colors not important than it comes down to ABS or Koni Shocks. If serious supercharged mods are a potential than '99. Is it for track use? Collectability, street use both? Need more info

This I can't stress enough....Chrysler Extended Warranty..those ACR parts like the shocks will eventually leak at low miles $$$$$$$$

2001 has ABS too...

1999 was the first year for ACRs

Your best price will probably be for a red one as that was pretty much the most popular color and there are more in that color around.

If by low miles you mean less than 7000 miles a year, then your friend may be interested in my car.
