Why should I buy a mustang over a GTO or Charger?
Hey to all,
I am looking to buy a newer american muscle car sometime in 09' (I know its a bit off). I have been doing my research and I have narrowed my selection down to the Stang, GTO, or the Charger. I prefer the Mustang over all 3 primarily because of styling, but the down side is that it has the least amount of horsepower of all three. Are the mustangs easily upgradable? How do I get more HP without spending 6 grand on a supercharger. Are the mustangs reliable? Please help me, convince me that the mustang is the best bang for the buck! I know that I won't be getting a brand new mustang, so I am looking at an 07' or even an 08'.
Whats your opinion?
-Thanks everyone

Charger does'nt do it for me it's like a souped up 300c. I do like the GTO (but) it reminds me of the cavalier. NOW the mustang looks like a mustang and the upgrades go on forever,being on this site should tell you something[sm=yeahsmile.gif]get the mustang

My buddy has a really nice GTO, but it costs him a fortune in parts when he gets anything done though. I think they look like Cavaliers too, but the inside is very nice. I like my Mustang, it looks better, drives better, and has an almost unlimited supply supply of parts (for good prices) and people (like here) to help.
But more than anything, because it is a Mustang and I have always wanted to own a Mustang.

Lower cost upfront to buy the car.
More parts available for the car.
Better looking styling than your other choices.
More aftermarket companies making components for the Mustangs than the others you listed.
Oh and welcome to the boards.

Don't by a charger (the 4 doors) was a terrible idea, i think its more towards a family car now,the duke boysdident even use2 doors>and the GTO's are nice but its like having a cavalier on steroids,no retro looks atall,The Mustang is your best bet for American Muscle, oh and the Challenger is very retro in looks and hp and of course you have the new Camaro as well, just dont waste your money on Chargers and Cavaliers (gto).
