90,000 km remember, not miles, so its like, 65,000 miles or something. Compared to my beretta at 191,000km lol

Yeah, that's only 56,000 miles, that's pretty damn good for a 15 year old car..as long as it's not 190,000.

Default RE: reliable?

though this car looks great and seems to be a great condition, my parents are being very reluctant to let me get a another car after buyin the beretta, i put about $6500 in total to the car, most of it being repairs and she seems to think that me keeping my current car longer is smarter. How i dont know, i spent about $300 + a month fixing it, then insurance and gas. If i could take out a small loan and buy the mustang, i would have more money in the end because i wouldnt have to constantly repair it. But her argument is "how do you know this car wont break all the time like the one you got now" So for now im trying to figure out a way to counter that argument because i really want a mustang, more importantly, i really want a car that i can drive for me then 2 days without something screwing up. Being in school sucks, dont got a lot of money, if i had a full time job then this wouldnt be an issue.
