Yay, I'm 16!!! And I'm getting a car soon. Now, I've always wanted a mustang, but now I'm seeing that EVERYONE has mustangs, so they seem less appealing to me now. So I'm wondering, does anyone know of a car similar to or better than a Mustang i could get??
And it can't be a Mazada RX 8 because my best friend just got one :(

Well since your 16 you might want to keep cost of the car and insurance in mind. It doesnt matter if you get a rice burner or a mustang or a pinto, you are going to pay for insurance big time. These guys telling you to get a 350Z and a 240 sx and all that jazz, those are still common cars seen all over the place. You arent going to get a car nowadays that isnt seen all over the road. That is of course unless you get some rare Ferarri. Anyways my first car was an 89 Mustang GT (which is now my Pro Street Drag car) and I bought it when I was 18. Its a ver fun car, cheap to maintain, and reliable. Plus lots of power for a car that year. Remember ANYTHING you get is going to cost mucho bucks in insurance, and sports cars are going to be even worse.

In the looks department, there's nothing "similar" to a Mustang. The Mustang looks like a car. By comparison, everything else on the road looks like a potato on 4 wheels.
Personally, if I had to make this choice you've laid out, I might pick a 350Z. The Z has got just enough non-potato shape to it. It recently won a 12-way magazine comparison of sporty cars under $30,000. It's more money than a Mustang, though. Maybe a lot more, depending on what you get.
If I wanted something cheaper than a Z, I might take a Mini. I love the styling. The handling will be world class. They don't have as much power as a Mustang, but they're lighter. It's plenty fast enough.

Ok. I'm 16 too and I have a 1989 ford mustang GT 5.0 5 speed. It's a great car! You should get a mustang. Make sure you get a fox body though. Your best bet is 87-93. Great cars! Get one with a 5 speed tranny. Good luck and don't worry about what everyone else drives. I doubt that they will have a fox body tang!!!

dude anything near a mustang or a mustang will cost u big bucks on gas and insureance. get a another car like a old maxima or ford taurus. mustangs are nice and fast but exspensive for a 16 year old .except if your loaded.

RITE ON KENDY listen to her she is rite on target 1990 mustang gt, lx ,convt. any of these is good as long as it has the 302 or 351 but the lx coup (or sedan, ) is lightest which translates to quickest on the strip also is rarest among all 3 options

well you always could get a dogde charger, which i never see out on the road. and they are hot cars but, i absolutly love the mustang. and if you are going to get one get the mustang gt 500 cobra, which is VERY EXPENSIVE, but the girls will be all over you and (inside) your car!

Dodge Challenger. It's going to be the hottest car on the road. Good luck!
