A little embarrassed to even admit this is mine... But it is! I bought this red 93 back in 09 and it has been stored most of the time. I NEVER even noticed the wheels were on backwards until somebody e-mailed me on the ad. To make it worse..... The certificate is for my teal 93. I posted the wrong pic and info. Moron... I know.... Either way I have had plenty of tire kickers and ridiculous offers even one who said he would buy it for 14k just to leave me hanging the day we were supposed to close the deal. I took it as a sign and I am gonna hold on to it for a bit longer.
Anybody know of any other 93 owners in the Denver area??? I have seen a few driving around but yet to meet up with anyone.

Re: it's ALL wrong!
I'm up in Thornton but have been without a 93 for a few years now. Looks like yours is really nice. Welcome to the site!Gonzo1993 wrote:A little embarrassed to even admit this is mine... But it is!

Re:
I ended up buying this car from Gonzo. The leather is a bit worn on the driver side. But there is definitely not 168k on it. The Carfax shoes 25k miles in 2003, 31k in 2006, 49k in 2008, 61k in 2009 and it now has 67k.JohnLynch wrote:New Link

Gonzo bought it in 2009 with 61k miles on it and sold it to me with 66k. So it basically sat for 4 years as he has a teal Cobra as well.

Also, I noticed the backwards wheels and am having them swapped. It's at the mechanic right now just getting general maintenance; fluids, belts, filters, etc.
As of right now it is 99% stock, just sub-frame connectors. I even found a working Ford tape deck in a junk yard and got it working. I had to rip out the OEM amp as it was fried. I re-ran the speaker wires up to dash to plug into deck, works fine now.

133k miles
78k miles
The intake just looks kinda rough I guess don't know why it would look like that with 66k miles, passenger seat looks cracked really bad too. As long as you didn't pay the asking price you probably did ok. Not a bad car just not the cleanest I have seen with those miles that's all. Good luck with it and congrats.

Re: Red/GrayLeather/Sunroof 66k miles #160 $15k CO.
He told me about the intake, said he wasn't sure why it looked like that. I was a bit surprised too. And the interior must have had some kind of dark colored soda/coffee spilled. When I redid the tape deck I had to shampoo under the passenger seat. The carpet is in good shape besides that and the plastic interior isn't sun baked at all thanks to the tinted windows.
The Carfax shows that the 3rd owner put 10k/miles per year for 3 years on it. So nearly 1/2 of the miles came from 2006-2009. He must have used it for a daily drive, I know right?! Gonzo put 5k miles on it in about 4 years.
It's in the shop now and when it gets back I'm giving that engine a scrub. I'll put up a few pictures in a different thread.

Well maybe on the iron block but SimpleGreen will actually corrode aluminum if you use the wrong type. Friend of mine is an airplane mechanic and said the default SimpleGreen has been red flagged by the FAA. Just a FYI for others out there.JohnLynch wrote:Yea use simple green and buy a new intake sticker on ebay.
