Also the cheapest, but because of age, will generally have more miles. They are all great cars, just depends on what ytou want to do with it.

The 96+ cars have the 3.2l engine and also a 3.23 (vs. 3.15 in the 95) rear. The lower RPM torque curve and the rear ratio make the 96+ cars a good bit quicker off the line. In the upper rpm range, my 95 kills the OBDII cars.

If you are not going to want to do serious modifications to the engine of the car, 96+ is fine. With those, your most cost-effective option is supercharging.
