This was an awesome car for its time. I owned a 1998 model new in 98 and had zero problems mopping the floor with BMWs and many V8 vehicles from that year. I had been searching for one recently and lucked out on a 98 model with only 113000 miles on it. Great buy as these cars are becoming collectables. Very rare and extremely hard to find. If you have the opportunity to purchase one I would jump on it quick. I plan on keeping mine forever.

Was what I called a 'sleeper.' Lots of fun with lots of power. A suspension change made all the difference with this car. It would top out at about 158 mph (actually computer would hold it). Would love to have kept this car and raced it.

Where to start??? I LOVE THIS CAR!!! Everything about this car is wonderful! It handles great, accelerates excellent, brakes superbly. I paid $1450 for this car with 142K on the odometer. It sure doesnt act like it has that high of mileage. As soon as i got home from buying the car, i did a little research on the car and found out that it is actually a 1998.5 and is one of 2050 built for that year, and one of 779 that were black!!! I think i made out fairly well on this particular deal. The interior is Midnight Blue leather and is very comfortable, both front and rear seats :-) Ad as far as gas mileage, can't quite get a real feel for it considering i am having waaaaay too much fun driving it! its rated at 20/29 mpg, which is about what ive been averaging. Like i said earlier, everything about this car is superb! It is almost too fun to drive. the motor revs freely, shifts are quick and precise, brakes actually stop (unlike my previous car) and the ride quality for having a sport suspension is quite forgiving. I havent driven a car which is this exhilerating to drive, and it wants to be driven, begging to go faster and turn harder. I plan on keeping this one for a while!

Great Car. I would recommend one to somebody that is mechanically included. Fast. Will kick a stock 90s mustangs ass, maybe not off the line, but it will at a roll. Nice suspension. I would recommend this car to anybody.
