mustang 5.0 vs 1LE camaro as collector items

[indyjps]

the cobras or any tuner modified mustangs would be good buys, maybe this generation of motion type cars.

They say there's an ass for every seat, but the 1LE in my opinion is a piece of crap, and most likely, a bad investment. No 1LE to my knowledge was competitive in the Firehawk series, American Iron, etc., and I don't think people really care about these racing series anyway.

I remember wanting a 1LE just because of the mystique and supposed race-cred, but that was before I got my Mustang GT. After driving one, unimpressed would be an understatement. At 5k miles the thing had dash and rear hatch rattles, etc., and the interior in those 3rd gens is a complete catastrophe as far as design and materials.

So, I say no. If you wanna capture the 80's and 90's, and are speculating, buy a nice Mustang now and enjoy it along the way. The aftermarket for those cars right now is bigger than it's ever been. Pretty amazing.
