whats the deal with this motor is this car to fast for a 17 year old girl?
are there any issue with this motor or trans?
what is one worth with 50000 miles? Auto

 

Stock, no this car should be just fine. The engine should last forever if its an auto and taken care of and as for price in my area I would say it could go for 4-5k.

 

any car can be too fast for an inexperienced driver or a careless driver. up here in pa in expect one with 50000 mi to go for 5 to 6 grand. ive seen a lot for prices way higher than that so you may have to look around for a good deal/be good at talking the dealer/seller down

 

i wouldnt pay more then 5k for one but there not bad vehicles if taken care of.

 

Like said before they will last FOREVER if taken care of. We have a guy on here with 500,000 miles on his 3.8 with almost no work done to the motor.

ahem, hes getting closer to 600000 now

 

^ even more proof these engines will last forever if taken care of...

If you get to 100,000 and no problems, the car has paid for itself. Anything over that is bonus. You can keep smiling all the way to the bank, because the payment will be gone by that time.

 

They are worth whatever the dealership or seller wants for them and what you pay. Realistically a 2004 V6 in great shape is worth around 6500 but most dealerships will ask 8-10K for one, but they are not worth that much. Talk them down and play hard ball they will come down, if they don't it's their loss.

As stated any car can be too much for an inexperianced driver. But to let you know what they car can do you're looking at a car with a 0-60 time of around 8.8s and that can run the 1/4 mile in around 16s flat.

Compare that to the new Mustang V6 which runs 0-60 in around 5.1s and the 1/4 mile in a brisk 13.7s.

 

why you gotta put both of those figures in one post? makes me sad...
