Default Planning To Leave VTEC and BUY a V8.

Hi guys, i use to drive a civic and dropped around 6gz in it till it got wrecked! Right now I'm planning on getting another civic or a Mustang GT. I used to hate mustangs and thought the GTs were slow TILL i got to test drove one. I just love the noise it makes and the sales person made me do doughnuts! This thing is a beast! I was going to get the car right on the spot but my credit didnt went through, so right now im just waiting for my settlement. Can u guys answer my questions,
1. I dont really care about MPG but How much is the Gas Tank Capacity? is it 15 Gallons? ON a Full tank how many miles can u get?
2. Im 19 years old and Im thinking about financing a 00' GT. Full coverage insurance, how much am I looking at for a full coverage Insurance, by the way i have a clean driving history, no tickets or accidents.
3. Is this car realiable? i mean if i buy a Mustang with 80,000 Miles is it still reliable?
4. What is it going to take for me to get to the mid or low 13s?

THanks guys, i hope you guys can help me out, Im just excited on getting one but first i want to know the facts before i purchase one.

Welcome to the better side jk!

Anyways, try asking around in the GT forums, most of the GT guys won't see posts like this in the newb section.

Welcome to the board. About specifics on the Mustang I for one am new to the car myself so sorry no help there. I do know that once I felt her power and looks I wont be going back to anything else, I'm hooked. Good luck with your search.

He doesn't have it yet....tee...hee.

Yeah man, 13's all you need is some rear end gears (4.10's) exhaust, and some STICKY tires. Being a good driver helps a lot too.
