hey, im getting a car pretty soon and i need some advice... my whole life i wanted a mustang (im in love with convertible mustangs) but then again, im not the best driver ever lol so im thinking i should get like a nice SUV, by the summer gas will be 3 $ a gallon >:( and SUVs eat up gas like a bitch.. what do u think is nicer for a girl to driver also? and whats better... any advice would be good, thanx :)

Lots of suvs dont waste gas.
my dads got a 2003 explorer and it takes awhile before its gotta get gas.
in my opinion mustangs have gone down hill so much from when they used to be "cool" Nowadays mustangs arent even cool. There have barely any power. The new mustang is 20,000 dolllars and the max horsepower is 160 i believe. come on thats just gay. back in the 60's 70's that thing was pumping out 400 horses.
around where i live theres only two kinds of people who own mustangs.
guys who own older models (60's-70's)
teenage girls and old women
the mustang is a girls car. dont buy it.
i suggest getting an suv. i got a 1998 Expedition. i love that car so much.

lol she is a girl yo...
-
theres more cars out there, keep lookin.. lol
watch what goes by that u like :)
-
lol, i am a girl..i dont really mind whats "cool" nowadays. i just love that car and i dont mind if it doesnt have that much power or speed.. its just a nice car but if some1 hits me with it or i crash- IM DEAD lol
-
no, i belive the new 2005 model is 300 horses stock, base model. Check up on that. It's a beautiful retro design, in my opinion, and the interior is badass. I feel taht the only "Girl" cars are audi TT's, Beatles, Honda Element, and most hybrids. The mustang is the shit, i hope i have enough money 2 buy it when i goto college.

The best car to buy would be a CLASSIC mustang. You can get like a '66 Mustang convertible, fully restored in perfect shape, for about 10 grand. That's about half what you're gonna spend on the new convertible mustang, and about a third what you would spend on an SUV, and you'd have something hardly anybody else would have, and girls look great in a cool-ass car like that.
Of course you're not going to listen to me, but I had to try anyways.
-
i wouldnt be too worried about dying.
but if your that concerned, get a suv. i love my suv.
heh sorry didnt know you were a girl.

god dont get a mustang ::)...what kinda suv you looking for...stay away from domestic vehicles...my acura type s blows away those damn mustangs all the time
-
ya, acura TSX is nice also in white or black... GMC SUVs are also nice and i LOVE escalades but they're 2 expensive.. :-\
-
ok first of all ill say i hate american cars... But mustangs are ok... if u just want speed.. the base model dotn habve no 160 hp.. the cheapest shittiest model has like 220... i think they will waste the same amount of gas cause both v6 or v8, id like to get an suv more, if its just down to those 2... theres also A LOT more cars out there.. tell us how much your trying to spend... also id would say get the g35, my fav car right now, but your bf has that

Uh....around 100,000 dollars. heh.
question. whats your price range so i could suggest something.
-
The 2005 V6 mustang packs a 4 liter, 235torque, 202hp enginge. Standard power windows, locks, mirrors, CD player. All this for 20k..? sounds good 2 me
The V8GT model packs a 4.6 300HP...Good shit
-
200 horsepower for 20,000???
that doesnt sound good to me at all.
Gt sounds nice. 2003 Cobra has 440hp that really sounds good to me.

only in my fucking dreams my family will get me a car that costs 100 grand lol
-
yes, but how much is the 440 horsepower cobra? Damn, my dad has 2002 v6 accord, 3.0 liter, 200 HP, but the torque is pretty low. its pretty damn good, considering it's automatic, and it cost over 20,000. Something like 25 or 26k. Now... Name another car at 20K that has same features as the 2005 Mustang, and i'm not talking about used cars.
-
cobras base price is 40,000

God damn rich mothafuckas. You have it so easy and u don't even know..Switch places with me and see how life is.."My parents will only spend 30 grand on my car"...WTF.. I wish I could see how life is with everything handed to me.
-

i had to buy my car with my own money. and i gots to buy everything else i own like clothes and nonessentials.

Owning a $30,000 car doesn't make you rich... ::)
-
thats cool I have respect for peeps that actually work for there shit.
-
it doesnt make you poor either. if you gots a 30,000 car then your doing ok for yourself, but your not hurting either
-
if you are a teenager and get that shit from your parents..Yeah your a spoiled brat. If you worked for it than its all good
-

So if you're 16, and your parents buy you a car, you're a spoiled brat? Maybe you just have parents who don't love you and/or help support you...PeACe
-
i think your spoiled if your parents buy you a car at 16.
what did you do to earn it? if you helped pay for it thats a different story. i know a guy whose parents have bought him two cars already and hes still 16. he doesnt even have a job. thats fucked up

Parents should always help buy a car...When they become old, that's when you pay them back, by supporting them like they did for you when you were a child...Plus, when parents buy a car for their kid, of course the child should help out with payments...If the child doesn't have a job and help with the payments, THEN he's spoiled...PeACe

ummm 30 grand isnt even a lot for a car... its mid-class ::)

back to the question at hand
i live in both world's i drive a 96' mustang GT convertable which i'm converting into a a 351 saleen. my mom has a 2004 chevy tahoe
IMO get the mustang......i mean there's a bajillion after market parts and accesories out there for mustangs to customize it...mustang's have the MOST after market parts for ANY car you could get a basic v6 for 4 grand and put that 26 extra grand fixing it up....and customizing it. Pimping out a mustang is EASY . the MACH 460 sound system is easily upgradable. ALL engine and transmission parts are EASY to come by and range from OEM (original Equipt Model to pro drag race)
if you decide on gettin an SUV....it costs $$$$$$$$ first of all the car itself STOCK is costly . i mean a GOOD suv like a tahoe , excursion, or Yukon Denali, escalade, or navagator costs 30-100 grand >.......STOCK! then the first thing you got to get on an SUV is the rims which for a pimp car cost 5 grand....then you got the system you got to pimp cuz lord knows no SUV has a good sound system with all that room. then when you go to put on your 20-26 inch rims you got to replace the brake rotors which are hard to find and expensive, as well as the engine parts and tranny. plus there's only so much you can do with an SUV to customize it becuase the after market is still barely new on them
in my opiniion your best bet if it has to be between an SUV and a mustang is the mustang
-
^^ OMFG the saleen is my DREAM CAR...
-
i drive my mom's Honda Civic and my parents wouln'd get me a new car, only a used 1. i'm starting work April 25, but it's only for 2 months, so i guess they're gonna buy me a used car for like 3-4 grand.

that car is ugly
30,000 isnt alot for a car? it depends on how old you are. if your living under your parents roof and you dont think thats alot then you got alot of money.
but if you live on your own and got a real job then :)

I wouldn't spend all that money on a brand new car...just come to San Diego when they have a US Marshall auction and buy cars that were siezed from drug dealers/convicts ;D
My sister got a 99 Honda Accord 2 Dr LX Coupe cheap $7,900 and it had 68k on it last summer. You won't have to deal with financing and all that bullshit they put on you.
Oh and you don't have to pay taxes on the car it is exempt...you only pay what you bid for it. My sister not only got a good deal she saved $800 in taxes.

Man... 3$ per gallon and this? --> >:(
Come around my hood and then complain about gas prices.
And about which car to get - use your head. Are you in a position where you can buy a car that's just fun or do you want one that's more useful too? Personally, I'd get neither. I'd settle for something smaller than an SUV and more practical than a Mustang. Maybe save some money for a good audio set up while I'm at it. (Shit, I need to get a job or win the lottery or some shit, I want a car of my own...)
-

(mpg city/highway/combined) 60/51/55 its not that bad looking ;)
-
who cares about its gas mileage it looks like shit.
gas mileage isnt really a factor to me. as long as its above 15 miles to a gallon im fine.
-
that's another advantage of a mustang....there's a million horse power adding parts that increase MPG

Well most of us live in SoCal and gas prices are getting crazy.
-
how much do saleens run for?
-
yea the hybrid is nasty, fuck good gas mileage... also i fuckin wish i had 30gs for a car, i spend 4500 on my maxima, but love it to death, also a really phat car is the new 2004 accord v6 coupe 6speed, like 25gs 240 hp, nice.. reliable... and beautifull...
-
how much do saleens run for?
It runs anywhere from 40-60, depending on what model you wanna get... :o
-
how much do saleens run for?
for a brand new one about 50 grand or so, but you have to buy them at certain ford dealerships, and it's kinda like the ferrari's they just don't let ANYONE buy em' them sell em to big names first.
older ones usually sell for 20-30 grand
-
yea... no saleen for me.. what great luck i have :(
