Is it worth it?
Here's my take on it: owning an SN95 is an act of genuine devotion and true love. After a few street races you'll find out that these things are slower than a lot of other cars and among Mustang fans, their styling is probably one of the least popular and sometimes ridiculed for their vague, rounded shapes.
But you know what? I personally couldn't care less. I've realized after 20 years that I will always love this style. I'm finally going to start 'modding mine and I'll roll in this car despite its shortcomings.
You mentioned handling? I just installed Koni STR.T shocks and SR (American Muscle) brand lowering springs in my '98. The handling is much better than stock and the stance is near perfect and the cost of these parts didn't break the bank; I'd say $700 or so for all of it.
What is your budget? That will dictate the reality of your designs. As it's been posted, peruse this message board and others to gain inspiration into what you want to do. The SN95 fanbase is a smaller one than most, but it's a strong and devoted one nonetheless. Welcome aboard...
