Is 2009 mustang v6 a good first car for a 16 year old?

Question

Im !5 turning 16 and Im getting my juniors license and my parents can afford a car around 20,000 dollars. I want to know if it's a good buy

Answer 1

I own a 2007 Mustang GT, Windveil Blue, with 18 in chrome tires and I love it. I'm also 34 years old. You should probably stick with the V6 Mustang. It looks sharp and the engine still has more than enough power.

The only downside is your age. Are you mature enough to have a sports car. You also may have trouble getting it insured. Trust me, I am 34 and my insurance company gave me attitude when I told them what car I bought.

The other thing is that it is rear wheel drive. Not a very good car for winter conditions. So you may want to consider where you live before you decide.

You will get alot of attention from others. I get compliments everywhere i go.

Good luck!

Answer 2

yea thats pretty badass bc my first car was used and that was a nightmare even though it was an audi

Answer 3

Can yo afford $400+ a month in insurance and car note IF you parents put this off on you when you turn 18 and you still have two years left to pay and you're making about min wage?

Maybe not.  Get something cheaper.

Answer 4

  NO...INSURANCE WILL BE SKY HIGH

Answer 5

no! since when is a muscle car with a v6 a good car? if you want someting fast and good looking, go european.

get a used:

BMW M3 (0-60 4.8, 155 MPH)

Audi S4 (0-60 5.3, 155 MPH)

Porsche Boxster S (0-60 5.6, 155 MPH)

Porsche 911 (yes, u can get a 2001 or older for same price as mustang)

u can get all those cars for same price, and they're faster, handle better, and are better looking. and if ur gonna get a muscle car, at least get one with a V8........

Answer 6

My boyfriend as a 2007 V6 and it's an awesome car. It has enough power to kick any of the ricers butts around here.  The only downside is the insurance might be expensive for you because of your age. We live in Nova Scotia (Canada) and he only pays 1500/a year for full coverage. It also does eat alot of gas up. If your dead set on getting a Mustang I would definitely go with a V6 because it is cheaper for insurance and cheaper on gas, and even though it has a 6 cylinder in it, it is still a hot car to look at and to drive.

Answer 7

Definitely!!! My parents bought me a new 2007 Grabber Orange coupe mustang premium when i was 17, ive been driving it for about 8 months now, it is amazing. it cost $20,068.34. Its the perfect car, iwouldn'tt suggest anything else. It turns alot of heads, pure pleasure to drive.

Answer 8

No!  You need to consider something that will not eat your parents' money up in insurance.  Also, think about something better on gas.

Answer 9

No, its not a good buy because the insurance will be really really really high (could be 5K a month or even more)

Your parents will have to pay more to insure you period. Save them some money by getting an older car that isnt a sports car or a muscle car like the mustang.
