    I would say yes, as long as you stick with a 5.0 or a 4.6 or the GT500, been a lot of problems with the new GT350, stay away from those.

    nice, shopping for a toy!

    if you can stretch budget a bit more....any love for the rc f? you'll get a NA 5.0L 8spd v8 w/ 467hp and all the awesome toyota motor corp reliability. super fun to drive in manual mode sport +. you can get a 2015 for mid 30's, maybe find one for low 30's with more miles. worth a test drive unless you've always wanted a mustang.

    rc f's are also pretty rare. you see mustangs everywhere you go....you'll rarely see one of these. mine is a 2017 but pretty much same as a 2015. didn't even show the interior which comes with carbon fiber trim standard and most come with mark levinson sound. 800+ watts, 10" sub 17 speakers overall. thumps! good luck!

    Slick car, but there is something special about that third pedal. I really think that if I get a weekend toy kind of car it'll be a Challenger RT with the 5.7 Hemi. Properly cared for that motor is solid to 200k (I've seen it) but you have to watch all the other bits on a Mopar. All personal taste.

    Last I knew (years back) the Mustangs used a Mazda transmission. Is it manufactured in China?

    Check out the Subaru WRX. Ultra reliable, as long as you don't get stupid with the mods, and definitely a poor man's race car. I miss mine. lol

    I dig the look of the camaro up to a few years ago, but I sat in one and the visibility is just terrible. Plus, I'm ok with old man fast these days. :rofl:
