what kinda of mustang should i get my 16 yr old son he wantsa 5.0 but can i get some stickys tellin me some support[sm=feedback.gif][sm=feedback.gif][sm=massbounce.gif]

 

i got mine when i was 16 mostly thought becuase i paid for it, i did wreck it within my first month(slid it into something) had to replace some stuff(front clip, fender) wasnt fun but it was a learning experiance and notihng has happened to it since then, i wouldnt know what to tell your son is he the type of guy who would goof off with it or will he be responsible if he goofs of alot i wouldnt get him it untill he gets used to driving more

 

If it helps you choose, I drive a 5.0 at the age of 17, Ive had it since I was 16 earlier this year. It runs 14.5 and lower once i get my engine trouble figured out.

Hell I love it to death and its the car for me. If your son has the least bit of resonsibility then hell be fine with it. I drive a lil fast but nothing major.

Although maybe if I can sell this paintball gear and I throw nitrous in it things will change.

If hes not a real big car guy, See if you can get him a 94/95 5.0 manual. Yes, Its hard to be that specific on a car, but even if he doesnt get it right when hes 16 or right away, hell be so much more thankful than if it was automatic, or v-6. If he just digs cars, any 5.0 manual will be great.

Then I notice you have a 92, if you get him a 94/95 Im sure hell rub it in your face about the SN95 body style, but itd be worth it

 

if he wants a mustang 5.0 get an 89-93 5.0 car decent gas mileage easy to service im 22 i bought my mustang so i respect it more than others will drive with more sense if he has money in it instead of if i wreck it daddy will get it fixed or get me another

 

a 16 yr old? Maybe a v6. Too many death stories abotu kids with fast cars killing themselves

 

And I did mean as first cars

 

got my 5.0 when i was 17... maybe wouldn't get it for first car tho

 

I got both my boys mustang GTs when they turned 16 and they treat them with alot of respect. No regrets!

 

im still alive been driving a mach for about 3 months. no tickets a\or accidents

 

to help them give it respect instead of buying it for them. let them pay half or so for it. that way it's partly theirs too. that's what mine did... look how i turned out. (don't answer that)
