That sucks, sorry it's not treating you well. Of course, it is a 15-year old car.
As for the Mustang purchase, the "don't have to Mod it thing..." no. That will last for a little bit, but after a while, you'll be tearing into that Pony! Quote:

Everything was fine the other day. I go to start it up yesterday morning and the coolant light is lit up in my face, and it had a really nasty stumble. Yeah, this piece of crap breaks even when it ISN'T being driven.
I've just had it up to my eyeballs with the piece of crap. It's time for a change. I want a car that I can actually drive. I've belonged to a Camaro club since last August and I haven't been able to to drive it to any cruise-ins, meetings, or anything. I'm the guy that's always showing pictures of his Camaro, and I'm tired of being that guy. "Yeah, I have a Camaro! Wanna see a picture of it?" I wonder if the people in the club even believe I have a Camaro.
I drove a 2010 Stang GT and loved it. Unfortunately, I didn't get a chance to mash the throttle, so I have no clue how fast or slow this car is. I really wanted to see "what it had," but not much I can do about traffic.
Another reason I'm looking at the 2010 Stang is because a Roush supercharger is available for it, and it's covered under Ford's warranty. It's a car that will have 435 hp, an air conditioner that works, a reasonable curb weight, manual transmission, and it's just a car I can get in, drive, and be happy.
It's a powerful car with a warranty. 435 hp is enough power that I will be happy with in "stock" trim, and I won't even have to mod it... | |
