Default Looking to buy a Mustang v6, please help!

Hey all, I'm looking to buy a 2006 V6 Mustang. Can anyone tell me what their experiences with this model have been? Have you had reocurring break-downs or anything like that.

The truth is, I don't know much about cars. This will be my first, and I want it to be something beautiful, which is why I'm going Mustang. I also need an Automatic (the guy can't drive a manual because of medical reasons). I'll be driving long distances every day (1.5-2 hours worth of traffic in the morning and evening).

Hope I can get some feedback, thanks a lot.

JD Power and Associates ranks it #2 in class for initial quality, slightly behoind the Solara. But the Solara isn't much to get excited about, is it?

I've had an V6 '05 since a utility truck took out my '03 stang. I love it. My 16 year old son says it is a babe magnet.
