I've been saving up since 6th grade and I turn 17 in July...finally.

I'm set on a V6, I went to a few dealerships by me last Thursday and I found a couple that were worth a second look.
The top contender right now is a 2006 white with pony package. I test drove it and it's SICK, but that could just be because it was the first day I had ever driven a Mustang.
They're asking $16,700. It's a CPO, 18,000 miles, pony package leather interior all that good stuff.
I'd rather get a car thats a couple of years older with all the extras than a 09 bare bones one, especially since this ones CPO the warranties would be about the same.

I did some reading but I still have a few questions. Do you all think this is a good deal? I figure I can get it down a few hundred if anything. Are there any specific things I should check out or beware of? It looks properly maintained and it ran great, but I'm going to have it looked at by a mechanic I know just in case.

This is my first car and I can't believe the hours finally upon me.

Thanks for your time.
