Default Im new

Hey all I'm new! Currently I dont have a Mustang, but Ive been looking around lately for a 5.0. Im 17 in a few months so Ive been looking for a nice car. I was looking into a Supra MK3 at first, but the insurance was terrible. The insurance for a Mustang is a lot more reasonable. Anyway, this site seems nice. Also, I live outside Buffalo, NY

EDIT: Typo

Good choice, the mk3 may be faster stock but the 5.0 Mustang has better potential for the same or less money. There is an almost endless array of performance hardware available for the 5.0 Mustang that will make it faster. In addition the larger 5.0 liter displacement will produce a lot more torque without having to rev it to 7000 rpm. Bang for you buck it's hard to beat a 5 liter Mustang. And you just can't beat the sound of a V-8!
Best of luck with it!

Thanks for the welcomes. Where I go for insurance its like almost 1000 more dollars for a Supra than a Mustang! Im not kidding either. Its probably my age.
