Default Help me get a stang.

A little info im going to uti in december and my old car(90'camry) died so i need a

new car. The possibilities are stang(v6) acura cl 3.0 or a celica(not gonna happen).

Its really between the stang and the acura. I need reasons to get the mustang

over the acura. I went to look at one today for 6g's it was a 2000 black with 94,xxx

on it. Thing was when we got their we were waiting for her to come to foodlion and

she got in a fender bender. So now i have to wait for her to get it fixed. Then after

that i have to get a mechanic friend to check it out. The problem is we have this

guy that goes to the auctions every thursday that will get a Cl or mustang for us if

he see's one. But what are some reasons why the mustang is better to get?

If your looking for a fast car, don't get the v6. Look for a 4.6L v8. The GT's are pretty frickin reliable. If you take care of them, they'll last forever.

LOL. I know what you mean. When I got my GT when I was 18 it was 1700 every six months through Geico. I would say to get the acura if your other option was a 2000 V6 mustang. Thing is that especially with 90,xxx miles you'll be looking into expences to fix up the any problems with the engine, tranny, or other things. How many miles does the Acura have? The V6 can be made pretty quick with a lot of bolt ons but with you being 17 and all im sure bolt ons will be limited as were they for me when I was 18. Id say get the Acura for now, graduate college, get a good job, then buy a bad a$$ mustang.
