If you like it why not? It's affordable, fast, and great looking. And honestly, ok maybe there's a teeny bit more chance american cars break down more...but honestly it's the people that drive them and own them which make them break down. Japanese cars can take so much abuse and maknourishment, but as long as you stick to your scheduled maintainances the car should be fine and have just as many problems as any other car. Just take care of it and it won't treat you wrong...


And about the Ford Explorer...no clue if u had the V8...but my parents had a Ford Expedition that went well into 220k withiout a problem besides the air compressor fuse for the rear suspension blew once. Other than that, no problems at all and we sold it for a nice price and I'm sure they are still getting good use out of it. Take car of your ride and it will make sure there's money left in your wallet.

mustangs SUCK and are slow....you can beat a stock mustang and come close to beating a GT mustang (with in 1/2 car length) with a st?!?!
but if you do...then get a black convertable those are just drop dead sexy with a stalker bodykit

I got beat by my friend's auto V6 Mustang with my old engine. I don't think a ST would come close to beating a Mustang GT.

If it was a early 90s Stang...those V6s only put out 130 or so.

whats early ones are you talking about, the 6 wasnt stock until 94, with the new body, they were only 4 bangers... and I havnt raced any with my celi, but I spanked a 2003 6 banger manul, with my 525i auto

Yeah, thats what I meant. I know that before that the 4 cylinders only got 110 or so.
