Ok, so here we have the V6 Mustang. Now, years ago you wouldn’t even consider buying a stock V6 for speed and performance. But now this car has the same power that the very popular foxbody V8 came with.
It’s amazing how far technology has come. And being a V6 Mustang, auto-insurance will be BUNDLES less than that GT. And not to mention there are all kinds of aftermarket performance parts for these cars. These cars with power-adders, aftermarket bolt-ons, and some computer mods are hitting upwards of 400HP+.
So if you are looking for an affordable car that has GREAT potential. And cost is a huge factor, maybe you should go to your nearest FORD DEALER and take one for a drive. ( your daughter and or wife will love it ) OOPS!! I said that out loud didn’t I? I’m sorry. I can’t control my brain sometimes..
OK OK, just kidding. My wife and daughter didn’t find that funny. Anyways, here are some stats.
