Want. Real bad. What's the deal with these?

Your best source for info is sccoa.com. I can get as specific as you want, but the short version is they're relatively cheap, make good torque, and respond well to mods. Yeah, they're heavy, too. Mine is one of the lightest streetable ones I know of, and it's still 3430 lbs. 5-speeds are available but less common, especially in 94-95.

Aren't these just Mustangs with a bigger trunk and back seat?

A common assumption, but no. They're on their own platform with almost no Mustang parts commonality. Unequal length control arms front and rear, unique top end for the 3.8, different transmission, etc.

We have been talking about running Mongo around Road Atlanta, pulling into the pits, the pit crew piles out of the bus does the service, piles back in the bus and we roar off onto the front straight again.

What's the deal with these?

In a nutshell? Slow, heavy, and look good with Mustang wheels.

I realize slow is a relative term but a buddy had one of these back in the day and it was anything but slow. Heavy yes.
