Yeah, I personally like the 94-04 body style a lot, but I am not a fan of the ones older than that and the newer ones are "eh". I found a 96 Mustang GT (4.6l V8 Manual) with 169,000 miles on it for $4,000. First of all, since it's my first car, I am sure a V8 will be ridiculous on my insurance, and secondly; the high miles on it kind of sketches me out a bit. But I did find a few other ones for less miles on them (auto and manual V6)'s for about the same price. I'm kind of torn between manual and automatic too. Also trying to decide between convertible, non-convertible. Again, like I said, all those things like (V8, sun-roof, or convertible top) will probably drive my insurance up as well. I will look into whatever I can find that I like, and in my price range, as well as which will be most cost efficient in gas and insurance rates.
