Within a year I'll have to get my own car, since my brother will need the 08 Honda Civic my parents have for use at college. So, being what I consider to be a car guy, I thought of all the cheap speed there was and a 5.0 mustang came out on top of tuners like the Prelude, and old trucks you can find cheap. It has to be decently fast, preferably an American V8, and needs a manual, and it fits that bill. But is the insurance bad? What about gas price and upkeep? I'll have to pay for all of that, and I know the cars of the 80's weren't known for their amazing quality. So in your guys honest and unbiased opinions, do you think this is a feasible first car?
