Is the mustang right for me?

  

poacherinthezoo -> Is the mustang right for me? (4/14/2008 11:46:28 AM)

 
It's that time in a young man's life when its time to purchase a car. I will be graduating from college in 6 weeks and will be attending vet school in the fall. I have been blessed with unlimited use of my parents corolla up until now, and it is being handed off to my younger brother.


I have been looking into cars for the last few weeks and am interested in learning more about the V6 mustang. I can't afford the gas or insurance of a V8 while in vet school nor do I really need all that power so I feel a V6 will do just fine. What do you mustang guys think of a mustang as a daily driver? Anything I should look into in particular. I haven't had any problem locating tons of mustangs in my area although it is a bit harder to find a V6 with a 5 speed like I am looking for.


Thanks

sure go ahead buy one, i got a v6, you definetly wanna go with a standard to get the full power,
cause in an automatic, you floor it, rpms go high but it has to think for a sec, than it goes.

I'm about to graduate too. Just got my V8 Vert. 4 Months in and I can't even imagine driving anything else. I'm that in love with it.

I'd say yes; get the stang.

all depends what you want on your mustang, mine came with the pony package

Welcome to the forums and good luck with your decision.  By all means get a mustang, but get one you can afford now.  You can always upgrade later.

Welcome. My stang is the best decision ive made. Pony package is nice and standard tranny is nice. I drive about 80-100 miles a day for work and its not that bad on gas. And they deffinatly arent all show no go.

If you are looking to buy a fun ride with decent horsepower and tourque, then a V6 Mustang is the right car for you! I would also suggest the 5 speed. This will allow you to really feel the tourque and HP the Mustang has to offer. Also, you can always add modifications to pump up the HP. I drive my Mustang as a daily commuter and really enjoy it. I don't hit too much traffic due to working close to my home; therefore a 5 speed is manageable for me. For those who drive to work in stop and go traffic, this could be a pain due to being a sports clutch, it is a bit stiffer than a regular clutch.

Good luck to you!
