Looking for a summer car preferrably American for insurance reasons

Looking at the 2005-2007 mustang v8

Or the 97-00 corvette

Both coupes

Any reccomendations or what's your pick?

h0lage

im assuming that gas money isnt a problem?

My recommendation is find a mint corvette... why dont you try to find an older covette? 1969 stingray

cr8tive_leo

1972 Firebird.

mmmmm...

Corvette

I don't wanna get something old cuz maintaining it will screw me over

I expect parts to break but with my nature I replace everything with performance so my money wouldbe tight

And no gas isn't a problem cuz I get alot of shifts in the summer so money is good

I have 12g right now and debating selling my civic to close the gap but than I wouldn't have a beater

spike

They only come in 2 doors.

Sorry by coupes I meant non-convertibles

h0lage

selling your civic wouldnt solve anything cause lets face it... what are you going to do in the winter time?

^lol so true.. vette or stang in winter is a no-no

and can you really get a decent vette for 20k? I'm actually asking as I have no clue as to the resale value of dohmestic cars..

h0lage

u would prob find a decent mustang for 20k or a not so decent corvette for 20k... but the vette would hold its value better.

I know this is gonna sound horrible... Try to find a old lady selling her late husbands toy... That how you get the best deals... there just trying to get rid of the car.

raman

im in the same boat! but i already made up my mind on a 350z..

i was thinking about just buying a cheap winter beater for like 1000 bucks but than i was figuring out what it'd cost to cert and etest it and theres no point

mustangs are driveable in the winter with sandbags but again i cant speak from experience

yes you can but its an iffy one you'd have to do alot of hunting to find a good one

im wayyyyyyy to supersticious (spelling?) for that lol i know it might sound stupid but if i was a ghost and some punk b1tch got a good deal on my ride and put 87 in it with flames and muffler tips.....i'd deffinitely haunt that car :P

INSURANCE MANNNNN!!!

lol i checked it out actually right now im paying 350 a month for my 99 civic si coupe

for an 05 mustang GT convertible ill be paying 310 lol

Give me the 12 g and your dilemma is solved!

cavalier z24 ftw!!!!!!!!! cheap as **** on insurance and even cheaper to fix. thats what i would do to save money.

bengali548

lol naa when i say summer car its purely for looks and RWD power a cavalier doesnt have looks lol

if i had to get a cavalier id rather just do up my civic

Long story short, my brothers friend purchased a 87 GN from an old lady for 1500 couple years ago. Keep looking around and you'll find something interesting.

Vinny

If you young, go for the mustang. If you old go for the corvette. Considering your brown...brown girls don't digg corvettes anyway. At least from my personal experience.

You will need to look very hard or get very lucky to find a decent 97+ Vette for 20g's. They are not the cheapest cars to repair and maintain either.

20g's could easily get you into a low k 2005+ Mustang GT. I love Vettes, but Id rather have a newer, low k GT.

the mustang gt is good saftey wise
MPG is pretty good with 29 combined
power wise is a biiiit lower than the vette but the mustang has more potential of being a daily driver (and it sounds nice when it roars :P)

I'd buy $20,000 worth of RIM stock
