The black 98 was my first SVT I bought, and that is the one that got modded. The other 98 and 2000 I just got not long ago. 98 is a parts car, and the 2000 is getting a 3L swap because it has a blown 2.5L.
My 98 I bought with 71k miles for $7100 back in 2003. Dealership wanted $8500 but we talked him down.
