hi, my names Erich, im 17 and i cant choose between buying a 6 G celica or a mustang..either '89-'93 GT or '99-'04 GT. im kinda stuck..ive always wanted a mustang..but the celicas are really appealing to me now. i would want either of the cars to go fast..but i would want to work on it my own..and build it to be fast..which models should i be looking at?.i have roughly for a spending limit. i want a maual tranny too. i'll take ANY suggestions!..thanks.

Mustang GT for:
Power, Aftermarket...

Celica for:
Reliability, fuel economy, looks, rareness

I am talking stock for stock. You can always slap a turbo on the Celica or swap a better engine and be faster, but it'll take a lot of money. The Mustang will be faster and easier to mod in terms of aftermarket parts, but it's not as reliable, it burns more gas, and it's more common. I am not biased, but since I've owned both cars, hands down...I'd pick the Celica. smile.gif
